Slaves brought to Americas from Africa were from different countries, regions and ethnic groups and spoke different languages. Slaves from different backgrounds interacted and communicated with each other by inventing and using Pidgin languages, which were simplified versions of the colonial language of their masters. These languages served as a medium of communication for these culturally and ethnically different groups of slaves.
