Creoles are a unique clan of languages. Slaveholders needed a way to communicate with their slaves and vice-versa. In order to do this, a pidgin language developed in which only the bare essential of a language is used to communicate. Later, when the pidgin language develops native speakers, it is known as a creole. Creole languages have generally agreed upon structures that set them apart from other languages. Given these facts, I analyze similar grammatical structures and functions of French and Haitian Creole. I ultimately contend that French is not a creole language based on comparing its verbal morphology to that of Haitian Creole.
