Here are entered works discussing pidgin languages that have become established as the native language of a speech community. Works discussing lingua francas which are native to none of those using them and are characterized by a simplified grammar and often mixed vocabulary are entered under the heading [Pidgin languages.] Works discussing auxiliary, sometimes mixed, languages used among groups having no other language in common are entered under the heading [Lingua francas.] Works discussing languages resulting from the intermingling of phonological, grammatical and/or lexical elements from different languages in areas of intensive language contact are entered under the heading [Languages, Mixed.]

Directory metadata is not a factual answer or evidence of a global knowledge gap.
