Haitian Creole language, mostly referd to as simply Creole, is the language spoken in Haiti by about 8.5 million people (2005). This is nearly the entire population of Haiti. The Creole language has also been carried out into the world by emigrants: about 3.5 million Creoale speakers live in other countries, like Canada, the United States, Venezuela, France, and many Caribbean nations, especially the Dominican Republic, Cuba, and the Bahamas.

Haitian Creole is one of Haiti's two official languages, the other official language is French. It is a Creole based on mostly 18th Century French, it also contains various other influences, like the native Taino, some West African and Central African languages (from the 18th century, including some Arabic), Portuguese, Spanish, and some English.

In French Guiana, Martinique, Guadeloupe as well as Saint Lucia and Dominica, Creole is also spoken, there are slight local variations to Haitian Creole.

What customers say about the Pimsleur Haitian Creole Audios:

Wonderful preparation for my trip to Haiti:
With the help of these 10 lessons and a (very) basic background in French, I found I was able to converse and understand a great deal of Creole in Haiti. And I was not there as a tourist, but for business, where I was speaking to people from different regions of the country and across the economic spectrum. I've never had a gift for languages (I did terribly in school with French class) but these audios literally turned me into a Creole speaker. I was in Haiti for 8 days and at the end of it, I could have (basic) conversations on a variety of topics. Its amazing what you pick up once you are immersed; but to have the basic structure and some basic vocabulary under your belt before that immersion, is key. Personally, I would have loved more audios, more lessons, a little more instruction (some of the basics like verbs like 'to have' were left out) and if Pimsleur released more lessons I would eagerly buy them. But bottom line, I was impressed with the instruction strategy and I really learned quickly; if they could get ME to learn a new language, anyone could learn.

Learning the Easy Way !
This was indeed an easy way to learn the language. Simply by listening, you will have the foundation of speaking with/to a native Haitian. I was constantly commended on my pronounciation and context. I was also laughed at when I said certain words. I learned that depending on where you came from in Haiti the wording is very, very different. The speakers on the audios were clear! I would suggest this to all who are interested in learning the Haitian Creole language....
