在研究的第一部分（第1-4节）中，我们证实了我们的主张，即这种文学表现确实是葡萄牙非洲奴隶在与白色人口和他们之间的互动中实际使用的语言媒介的可靠再现。我们提出了一个历史情景来解释“回归”的LdP到非洲，即Senegambia，在那里它很快成为葡萄牙侨民和当地居民之间的贸易的通用弗兰卡。从这种弗兰卡，克里奥尔语随后出现。在第二部分（第5-11节），我们提出了一个广泛的纲要LdP语法，如我们能够检索到的语料库。我们的结论是（第12-13节），这些历史证词的可用性确实给了我们一个难得的机会，获得一些过渡媒介的第一手知识，这种媒介必然会将一种灵活性语言从“它的”克里奥尔语中分离出来。我们认为，这种过渡性的语言看起来更像是一种BV，而不是一种被破坏的行话，这一事实支持了这样一种假设，即成年人未经辅导的第二语言习得在克里奥尔语的形成中发挥了至关重要的作用。
Lingua de Pretofalar GuineIn the first part of the study (sections 1–4), we substantiate our claim that such literary representations are indeed reliable renditions of the linguistic medium African slaves in Portugal actually used in their interactions with the white population and among themselves. We propose a historical scenario to account for the ‘return’ of LdP to Africa, i.e. Senegambia, where it soon became the lingua franca of trade between Portuguese expatriates and the local populations. From this lingua franca, creoles subsequently arose.In the second part (sections 5–11), we propose an extensive outline of LdP grammar such as we are able to retrieve from the corpus. Comparisons with present-day WAPCs are attempted.We conclude (sections 12–13) that the availability of such historical testimonies indeed gives us the exceptional opportunity of gaining some first-hand knowledge of the transitional medium that necessarily separates a lexifier language from ‘its’ creole(s). The fact that this transitional medium, we think, looks much more like a BV than a destructured jargon lends support to the assumption that untutored L2 acquisition by adults played a crucial role in creole formation.
