Lettris

Lettris is a curious tetris-clone game where all the bricks have the same square shape but different content. Each square carries a letter. To make squares disappear and save space for other squares you have to assemble English words (left, right, up, down) from the falling squares.

boggle

Boggle gives you 3 minutes to find as many words (3 letters or more) as you can in a grid of 16 letters. You can also try the grid of 16 letters. Letters must be adjacent and longer words score better. See if you can get into the grid Hall of Fame !

Pidgin

Un article de Wikipédia, l'encyclopédie libre.

Pour les articles homonymes, voir Pidgin (homonymie).

Le terme de pidgin (nom masculin) désigne différentes langues véhiculaires simplifiées créées sur le vocabulaire et certaines structures d'une langue de base, en général européenne (anglais, français, espagnol, etc.).

Les linguistes distinguent le pidgin du créole en fonction du niveau de structuration de la langue. Toutefois, il est courant de réserver le terme pidgin aux langues issues de l'anglais et le terme créole aux langues issues du français. C'est cependant un emploi abusif.

Exemple de pidgin de Papouasie-Nouvelle-Guinée : yumi signifiant « nous » (issu de l'anglais you + me).

Remarque : le pijin (noter l'orthographe) est un pidgin à base lexicale anglaise parlé dans les îles Salomon.

Origine du mot pidgin

L'origine du mot pidgin est assez mystérieuse, et donne lieu à plusieurs hypothèses.

Selon une étymologie populaire, et probablement fausse, le terme pidgin serait né dans les Caraïbes appartenant à la couronne britannique. La façon de parler des premiers esclaves ayant appris à parler l'anglais aurait été assimilée, par les colons, à des gloussements de pigeon (prononcé [ˈpɪdʒən] en anglais).

Une autre hypothèse, plus sérieuse mais discutée, suggère qu'il s'agirait plutôt d'une déformation du mot anglais business en pidgin anglo-chinois.
