Are there any other creole Spanish you know of other than from my home country in Filipinas called Chavacano? I have heard that there are many others within Latin America.
Some purists really hate listening to Chavacano, but for me it is another product of language evolution so I'm enchanted by it. If you think about it, Castellano is supposed to be a bastardized Latin. So I don't see anything wrong with Chavacano. Some of them actually speak castellano but choose to use Chavacano for everyday use.
I guess it's like how Jamaicans are in relations to English and Patois. Hell, even white boys try to speak like Jamaicans or as we call them in US wannabe-Jamaicans because it is cool to sound different. They can also speak proper English when needed.
Chavacano is a product of history of my country and it's nothing to be ashamed but only to be proud of. Here's a link of some bands that use Chavacano:
