About JPCL

Aim and Scope

The Journal of Pidgin and Creole Languages is designed to be part of an international effort to bring together scholarly treatments of all aspects of pidginization and creolization. Special emphasis is laid on the presentation of the results of current research in theory and description of pidgin and creole languages, and application of this knowledge to language planning, education, and social reform in creole-speaking societies.

Our sincere thanks goes to the Ohio State University for its generous support of JPCL. We especially wish to thank Peter Culicover, Chair of the Department of Linguistics and Michael Hogan, Dean of the College of Humanities.
