Cabo Verdean Creole Pluralization – Problem Set

Danuta Allen, Felicia Bisnath, Sophia Eakins, Demet Kayabasi and Cecilia Solís-Barroso

The following questions aim to introduce the variation and creativity in pluralization strategies in Cabo Verdean Creole (CVC) and to encourage the students to reflect on how a language more familiar to them (English) also varies in its pluralization marking. By leading students to find commonalities between English and CVC, we hope to reinforce non-exceptionalist thinking towards Creole languages.
