Speakers also use Cantonese Chinese, which is the source of substantial lexical material; there is also Malay and Indian lexicon reflecting the connection with Kristang and other Portuguese Creoles further west.

PLACES: China

LOCATION DESCRIPTION: Macao

COMMENTAIRES SUPPLÉMENTAIRES: Over 10,000 members of this group, but only about 5,000 remain in Macao since its return to China in 1999.
