Kristang Language for Beginners [Workshop]
Interested in learning conversational Kristang? Experienced teachers and writers Sara Santa Maria and Kevin Martens Wong introduce you to some choice phrases in the critically-endangered Malaccan Portuguese Creole (aka Kristang / Cristang). Registration required.
What is Kristang?
Kristang is the critically-endangered heritage language of the Portuguese-Eurasian community in Singapore, with less than 100 elderly fluent speakers today. Since the 1930s, speakers of the language have dwindled and inter-generational transmission has ceased.
