It depends what type of creole you want "we" to be translated in.. There are many different kind of creoles.. There is the haiti creole, seychelles creole, mauritian creole, and many many more. Most creoles do sound familiar with each other and some words means the same. For example,the mauritian creole and the sychelles creole are like proper familiar.. Most of the words are similar except a few minor ones.. So if mauritians went to sychelles, they could actually communicate with the people there by talking creole.. No need to know another language to communicate with them.. Btw, "we"in both seychelle creole and mautian creole is "nu".. It is pronounced like the french word "nous" which also means we..
