Abstract

This article presents a comparative analysis of morphosyntactic structures in various creole languages. Using a typological approach, we examine how different creole languages have developed distinct morphosyntactic patterns. The study highlights the influence of substrate and superstrate languages in shaping these structures. By analyzing creole languages from regions such as the Caribbean, Africa, and the Pacific, we aim to provide insights into the processes of language formation and evolution. Our research contributes to the broader understanding of creole linguistics and the dynamics of language contact.
