Pidgin languages are simplified forms of languages that develop when speakers of different languages need to communicate. They are not official languages, but rather serve as a lingua franca (common language) in specific communities.
Examples of places where Pidgin English is spoken include:
* Nigeria: Nigerian Pidgin English
* Cameroon: Camfranglais
* Papua New Guinea: Tok Pisin
* Solomon Islands: Pijin
While Pidgin English can be widely spoken and used in many contexts, it doesn't hold the official status of a national language.
