This book accounts for the structural differences between ‘non-creole’ language varieties - such as African-American English - and their European source languages. John Holm argues that these differences resulted from ‘partial restructuring’, whereby some of the source languages’ features were retained, but many features from the non-native speakers’ language were also introduced.Holm, John is the author of 'Languages in Contact The Partial Restructuring of Vernaculars' with ISBN 9780521430517 and ISBN 0521430518.
