In linguistics, a lingua franca is a language that is used as a common means of communication between speakers of different native languages. It is typically a simplified or hybrid language that is used for trade, diplomacy, or other interactions between people who do not share a common language.
A pidgin is a simplified language that develops as a means of communication between speakers of different native languages who come into contact with each other. Pidgins typically have a limited vocabulary and simplified grammar, and are used for specific purposes such as trade or communication between different ethnic groups.
A creole, on the other hand, is a stable, fully developed language that emerges from a pidgin when it becomes the native language of a community. Creoles typically have a more complex grammar and vocabulary than pidgins, and are used as the primary means of communication within a community. Creoles often develop in situations where speakers of different languages come together and need a common means of communication.
