    That really does not make sense the population of capeverde in 1600 was less than 1000 people and not that much more in 1700 because of regular droughts. There was no capeverdean sent to ABC islands, it is muchore likely that portuguese speakers came from brazil

  • @michaelmatisse2808
    @michaelmatisse2808 Před 2 měsíci

    Capeverdean creole is not the origin of papiamento, the similarity is because of the original population of abc islands were portuguese speakers from brazil. The Papiamento is just a mix of portuguese and senegambian languages and that is the same why it is similar

    WOULD LOVE TO BE EDUCATED: I had a conversation with someone the other day about Papiamento. He said it is intelligible with LADINO, which is the ""creole"" Spanish/Portuguese/ HEBREW language of Iberian Sephardic Jews. I said that's very interesting because I've actually learned that it is intelligible with KRIOLU, the creole language of Cabo Verde. So now I'm very curious, because Jews from the Iberian Expulsion of 1492 did come to Cabo Verde when it was first founded! Perhaps Ladino is part of the making of Kriolu?!?

    • @ComingToAfrica
      @ComingToAfrica Před 4 měsíci

      Thanks for sharing that. Yes I am aware of the partial intelligibility. It’s not surprising really. My response to that is that Papiamentu speakers use open Spanish sounds/vowels. And Kabuverdianu speakers have closed Portuguese sounds/vowels. For example, the Portuguese can understand Spanish better than vice versa. We got to remember that Curaçao, Bonaire and Aruba are in sphere of influence of the Spanish language. And they haven’t had major Portuguese influences since the 1670s.

    Can speakers of papiamento and speakers of Cabo Verde/Guinea Bissau communicate?

    • @ComingToAfrica
      @ComingToAfrica Před 5 měsíci

      I love this question! Having a simple conversation will be possible. However, Kabuverdianu and Guinensi speakers will understand Papiamentu/o speakers more easily than vice versa. The simple explanation is because Papiamentu has been heavily influenced Spanish phonetics. Thus, we tend to have open vowels. And Kabuverdianu and Guinensi have more closed vowels like Portuguese. To give you an idea of what I mean with open vowels. Check out the videos between Portuguese and Spanish speakers! With that being said. Of both speakers speak slowly and adjust their vocabulary often times using older words. You can have a very deep convo.

    • @lemonade_ib

    Nice work and very little known history of africa and the caribbean. Keep up the great work. Interesting fact is that the english based creole language spoken in sierra leone, known as krio, has a few words of clearly Portuguese origin. Although it is considered an english based creole. Aside from krio, the temne and sherbro languages also preserve many Portuguese derived words from their contact with the Portuguese before british predominance in the region.
