Kreyol: One of Haiti's two major languages, the other being French. It is a language that has a mixture of French, English, Spanish, Taino, and West African languages. It is officially known as Haitian Creole but many Haitians will refer to it as Kreyol or (less commonly) Kreyol Ayisyien. It is NOT a vulgar or "ghetto" form of French. Kreyol has its own alphabet and its own grammatical system. Over 7 million people speak it, making it the most spoken Creole language in the world. It is a common misconception that people who speak French can understand Kreyol. In fact most French-speaking people CANNOT understand Kreyol but many Kreyol-speaking people can understand French, even if they cannot speak it.
