A creole-language is a language that was formed from a mixture of multiple languages.
<br> Creole-languages are more common than linguists typically admit.
<br> Linguists typically organize languages like trees which branch-out,
<br> but which never hav converging branches,
<br> but the truth is that language-mixing (that is, converging branches in the tree model)
<br> has ben very common throughout the history of language.
<br> Much of the diversification that occurs within a language family,
<br> and much of the diversity between language-families, is the result of creolization.

The languages of the indo-european language-family illustrate that principle well.
<br> At an early time, the proto-indo-european language split into a "centum branch" and a "satem branch".
<br> But, indo-europeans of the centum branch and those of the satem branch invaded menny of
<br> the same lands, which resulted in the formation of menny indo-european languages that are
<br> centum-satem creoles, including greek, albanian, latin, and germanic,
<br> whereas the celtic languages represent a centum-only type,
<br> and the slavic languages represent a satem-only type.
<br> But, in addition to that mere centum-satem creolization,
<br> indo-european languages hav usually also creolized with indigenous non-indo-european languages.
<br> That can be seen clearly in the germanic branch, the baltic branch, greek, the insular celtic branch,
<br> and the indo-iranian branch.
