Why was the Chavacano language invented when they tried to make the Spanish language simpler? The Spanish phrase "Ella se fue á la escuela" is much easier than the Chavacano "Ya andá ele na escuela." It seems they use verb/subject/object instead of subject/verb/object. Sometimes they use different verbs. Was the language invented to tailor to the needs of the people of Mindanao? Did people in Mindanao speak in verb/subject/object? Are people required to conjugate verbs? It doesn't seem like Chavacano is a language for common people in Mindanao. It seems like its the language of the learned and the scholars. Who would've thought of this stuff?
