The Creole legacy of a bounteous mutineer: Edward Young's Caribbean contribution to the language of Pitcairn and Norfolk Islands
Baker, P.; Mühlhäusler, P.. - : Taylor & Francis (Routledge), 2013
Abstract: Published online: 14 Oct 2014 ; Ross and Moverley's The Pitcairnese Language (1964) revealed that its word [mɔːgə] ‘thin’could only be attributed to Edward Young who, alone of the Bounty mutineers, was born on the Caribbean island of St Kitts. This suggested that other Kittitian influences might be found in the speech of the mutineers' descendants, most of whom now live on Norfolk Island. Table 1 lists 50 such items which are potentially attributable to Young. We also discuss the limited information we have on Young's background. This indicates that he could speak and write English in the manner of a well-educated person. This may seem to conflict with our belief that he contributed at least some Creole features to Pitcairnese. We speculate that he used standard English in most contexts but drew on his childhood knowledge of Kittitian in informal circumstances such as the naming of Pitcairn's fish species and in playing games with the children he looked after. However, we fully acknowledge that this view cannot be confirmed unless considerably more is discovered about his life in St Kitts and England prior to his employment in 1784 on a ship captained by George Young, the man we believe to be his father. ; Philip Baker and Peter Mühlhäusler
