Lol. A creole isn't a language. Hatian creole (the language) is based on French and French is one of their official languages.

Yes, i meant they speak haitian creole, i thought it was obvious. I speak french and i can positively tell you that although being "based on french" its quite impenetrable to me, although ive been hearing it for 20something years. So its not like, emigrate to Canada, sit in school, start studying in french. Its really learning a new language. And although french is listed as the second official language of Haiti, that is only because the tiny economic elite of the country speaks it.
