The changes in language will continue forever, but no one knows sure 【M1】_____.
who does the changing. One possibility is that children are responsible. A
professor of linguistic at the University of Hawaii, explores this in one of his【M2】_____.
recent books. Sometimes around 1880, a language catastrophe occurred in 【M3】_____.
Hawaii when thousands of emigrant workers were brought to the islands to 【M4】_____.
work for the new sugar industry. These people speaking different languages
were unable to communicate with each other or with the native Hawaiians or
the dominant English-speaking owners of the plantations. So they first spoke
in Pidgin English-- the sort of thing such mixed language populations have 【M5】_____.
always done. A pidgin is not really a language at all. It is more like a set of
verbal signals used to name objects and without the grammatical rules needed
for expressing thoughts and ideas. And then, within a single generation, the 【M6】_____.
whole mass of mixed people began speaking a totally new tongue: Hawaiian 【M7】_____.
Creole. The new speech was contained ready-made words borrowed from all 【M8】_____.
the original tongues, but beared little or no resemblance to the predecessors in【M9】_____.
the rules used for stringing the words together. Although generally regarded as【M10】_____.
primitive language, Hawaiian Creole had a highly sophisticated grammar.
【M4】
