From the Introduction (xvi to xvii): Jo-Anne Ferreira discusses the cultural heritage and revitalization issues of Trinidadian French Creole (TFC) or Patois. She examines and establishes a very useful update of a minority and marginalized, even endangered language in the Caribbean that, while thriving elsewhere, is very limited today in Trinidad. The chapter raises pertinent questions about language planning, the effects and benefits of internet technology on language development and maintenance, as well as the sociocultural importance of TFC. The author’s purpose is twofold: to make TFC literary culture available to a series of wider audiences and to formally support informal language preservation efforts currently under way.
