Cafundó, or Cupópia, is a 'secret' language spoken in the village of Cafundó, São Paulo. The language is structurally similar
to Portuguese, with a large number of Bantu words in its lexicon. Cafundó was at first thought to be an African language,
but a later study (1986) by Carlos Vogt and Peter Fry showed that its grammatical and morphological structure are those of
Portuguese, specifically the rural hinterland Southeastern variety; whereas its lexicon is heavily drawn from some Bantu language.
It is therefore not a creole language, as it is sometimes considered. |
