Whenever slaves from different language backgrounds were thrown together on plantations, they developed a makeshift 'pidgin' — not a real language, just string of borrowed words. But their children, in a single generation, transformed it into a creole with rich syntax, morphology, and phonology. The same thing happened in Nicaragua when deaf children were exposed to adults fumbling through improvised sign: the kids creolized it into a full language. No one taught them. They built it.
