Misplaced Pages

The present page holds the title of a primary topic, and an article needs to be written about it. It is believed to qualify as a broad-concept article. It may be written directly at this page or drafted elsewhere and then moved to this title. Related titles should be described in Melanesian Pidgin, while unrelated titles should be moved to Melanesian Pidgin (disambiguation).

Melanesian Pidgin or Neo-Melanesian language comprises four related English-derived languages of Melanesia:

• Bislama, of Vanuatu
• Solomon Islands Pidgin
• Tok Pisin, of Papua New Guinea
• Torres Strait Creole, of the Torres Strait Islands and parts of Cape York

These languages are linked to workers from these places working on plantations in the Australian state of Queensland. Torres Strait Creole is the least closely related of the four.
