Abstract

The author talks about the language styles and style shifting in Creole communities. She discusses the linguistic anthropology-based approaches, the stylistic fabric of one Creole, the Eastern Maroon Creole or Nenge(e) and how and why it has been evolving over time, and stylistic changes and the factors that play a role in the stylistic changes.
