| Abstract | Pichi is an Afro-Caribbean English-lexifier Creole spoken on the island of Bioko (Equatorial Guinea). This paper focuses on typologically noteworthy aspects that invite comparison of Pichi with related English-lexifier contact languages of West Africa. It provides a sociohistorical overview, a typological summary, a presentation of the tone system of Pichi, and a comparison of the tense-mood-aspect systems of Pichi, Naijá, Cameroon Pidgin, and Ghanaian Pidgin English. The outcomes of language contact with Spanish on the one hand, and with Naijá and Cameroon Pidgin on the other are also covered. |
