Pidgin English, combining basic English vocabulary and Chinese grammar, arose in the 19th Century China Trade. "Pidgin" is how the word "business" was first pronounced in it. No tickee no washee, meaning "if you don't have your ticket we'll never be able to find your clean clothes for you" is a familiar example from 20th century American life.
