Spanish-based Creole languages are languages that develop from a mixture of Spanish and other languages, often in colonial contexts. These languages typically arise in regions where Spanish colonizers interacted with indigenous peoples and enslaved Africans, leading to the creation of new, hybrid languages that incorporate elements from both Spanish and local languages. Examples of Spanish-based Creole languages include Papiamento, spoken in the Caribbean, and Chavacano, found in the Philippines. These languages often have simplified grammar and vocabulary, making them distinct from standard Spanish while still retaining recognizable features of the language.
