Malay: Low... ["Common, or Colloquial Malay"]
"Low Malay has long been a lingua franca, or trade
language, used
in ports and markets from Sumatra to the
Philippines. Some-
times known as Bazaar Malay, it has assumed many forms,
depending upon varying regional influences on grammar and
vocabulary of the local tongues,
Chinese, and the European
languages. Low Malay, the usage of
Java, and Baba Malay are
forms of this pidginized Malay."--1000 Tongues, 1972 [Info
