Mohawk Dutch
Mohawk Dutch is a now extinct Dutch-based creole language mainly spoken during the 17th century west of Albany, New York in the area around the Mohawk River, by the Dutch colonists who traded with or to a lesser extent mixed with the local population from the Mohawk nation.
At the height of the Republic of the Seven United Netherlands's North American colony of New Netherland, there were 18 languages spoken within Dutch-controlled territory.〔''A History of the Schenectady Patent in the Dutch and English Times'', by Jonathan Pearson, Junius Wilson MacMurray. Published 1883 by Munsell's Sons, Schenectady, NY. Original from Harvard University, digitized May 10, 2007.〕 Dutch settlers frequently married First Nations women, most commonly from the Mohawk with whom they were strong allies.〔http://threerivershms.com/mohawkdutch.htm The Mohawk Dutch and the Palatines〕 The resulting children often drifted between the territory of the Iroquois Confederacy and New Netherland, forming among themselves a creole taking elements from both languages.
The language was never documented and disappeared in the 20th century.〔Sijs, Nicolien van der (2009) ''Cookies, coleslaw, and Stoops. The influence of Dutch on the North American languages'' Amsterdam: Amsterdam University Press, p.36〕
==Grammar==
Research into similar languages such as Michif (a mixed language formed between French and Cree) has indicated that creoles formed between Europeans and First Nations peoples tended to follow a similar pattern grammatically.〔Bakker, Peter. A Language of Our Own: The Genesis of Michif, the Mixed Cree-French Language of the Canadian Metis, Oxford University Press, 1997.〕 The verb phrase was most likely Iroquoian-based, and thus polysynthetic. The noun phrase likely derived from Dutch.
