A creole is a person with ancestors from Europe who was born in either the West Indies or Latin America.
Creole languages occur when two or more languages come into contact and a new language develops as children learn the new one natively. Commonly known creoles in North America include Haitian Creole and Cajun, but there are many others throughout the world.
