About Yukon Creole
Yukon Creole (known also as Yukon Patois (Patwa d'Ukon), Nos Lang, Russe Bas, or Musulman) is a french-based creole spoken in The Yukon regions of The Republic of Quebec and the Republic of Alaska by the Yukon Creoles or Yukon Russians, a mixed people descended from Early Russian Muslim settlers in the Yukon, as well as indigenous Na-Dene peoples and later French colonists. Yukon Creole is a mixed language primarily based on French but with significant input from Russian, Na-Dene, Spanish, Nez Pierce, Inupiat, Arabic and Turkic languages. Most speakers can speak it in addition to Standard French or Standard Russian, and it holds a status as the lingua franca of all Yukon Muslims, with a significant second language community.
