- W2893686540 abstract "Jamaica is an island nation of approximately 2.9 million people in the Caribbean,some 120 miles to the west of Haiti, the country used by Ferguson (1959) as one ofthe exemplars of the concept of diglossia. Jamaica, like Haiti, has a predominantlycreole-speaking population and is, second to Haiti, the largest single creole-speakingspeech community in the world. Jamaican Creole (JC) is an English-lexicon creolelanguage coexisting with English. JC, like nearly all the creole languages of theregion, has been involved, from the 1960s onwards, in a process by which it isincreasing in status and expanding in functions.Of the approximately 15 English-lexicon creole languages spoken in the Caribbean,JC has as many speakers as the others combined. It is, therefore, a good choice forstudying how diglossic-type behaviour is implemented in an English and Englishlexicon Caribbean creole context. This matches the much better known case ofHaiti, involving French and a French-lexicon creole. Hudson (2002), in hisextensive and thorough review of the literature on diglossia, is inclined to excludeHaiti and, by extension, other Caribbean creole-type situations from the categoryof diglossia. Against this background, therefore, it becomes interesting to explorethe relationship between the Jamaican language situation and the essential featuresof diglossia as identified by him. The essence of diglossia, Hudson (2002: 40)argues, is that the situations fitting this concept are unified by their havinga quite specific set of relationships between functional compartmentalizationof codes, the lack of opportunity for the acquisition of H as a native variety,the resulting absence of native speakers of H, and the stability in the use of Lfor vernacular purposes." @default.
