Document Summary
William the conqueror conquers the british isles and creates a pigeon. A pigeon is when two languages clash and the two countries have to communicate. A creole is when the second generation combines the two languages and creates their own new language. A creole is essentially a hybrid of the two languages. English has the most vocabulary out of any language in the world. This is because english is a creole, a combination of german, french, and many others. French tends to have more powerful, high class words since they were the ones ruling colonies. The french were the rich upper class rulers while germans were the ordinary citizens. The french had more powerful words like mansion to describe the place they lived while germans had a less pristine word as house to describe the place they lived in. The french even thought they would be the next roman empire because they thought so highly of themselves.
