Papiamento/Papiamentu
Morphology Typology
I was unable to find what morphology typology Papiamento belongs to. I researched the different categories, and based on examples of written Papiamento and on the fact that its words are mostly derived from Spanish, Portuguese, and Dutch, I would say Papiamento is a fusional language.
Basic Information
Number of speakers: 341,300 Where it is spoken: It is an official language in Aruba and Curaçao, but it is also spoken in Bonaire
