Norfuk : ウィキペディア英語版
Norfuk dialect

Norfuk (increasingly spelt Norfolk) or Norf’k〔(Norfolk Island Language (Norf’k) Act 2004 (Act No. 25 of 2004) )〕 is the language spoken on Norfolk Island (in the Pacific Ocean) by the local residents. It is a blend of 18th-century English and Tahitian, originally introduced by Pitkern-speaking settlers from the Pitcairn Islands. Along with English, it is the co-official language of Norfolk Island.〔''The Dominion Post'', April 21, 2005 (page B3)〕〔''The Daily Telegraph'', (Save our dialect, say Bounty islanders ), retrieved April 6, 2007〕
As travel to and from Norfolk Island becomes more common, Norfuk is falling into disuse.〔Feizkhah, Elizabeth, (Keeping Norfolk Alive ), ''TIME Pacific'', August 6, 2001 〕 Efforts are being made to restore the language to more common usage, such as the education of children, the publication of English–Norfuk dictionaries, the use of the language in signage, and the renaming of some tourist attractions — most notably the rainforest walk "A Trip Ina Stik" — to their Norfuk equivalents. In 2007, the United Nations added Norfuk to its list of endangered languages.
==Relationship to Pitkern==
As mentioned above, Norfuk is descended predominantly from the Pitkern (Pitcairnese or Pi'kern) spoken by settlers from the Pitcairn Islands. The relative ease of travel from English-speaking countries such as Australia and New Zealand to Norfolk Island, particularly when compared with that of travel to the Pitcairn Islands, has meant that Norfuk has been exposed to much greater contact with English than Pitkern has. The difficulties in accessing the Pitcairn population have meant that a serious comparison of the two languages for mutual intelligibility has been largely impossible.
