Answer to Question 1

FALSE

Answer to Question 2

Given the frequency of contact between different island cultures once long distance traveling was prominent, it is no surprise that people have generated new forms of intercultural communication. For example, several forms of Pidgin English (also known simply as Pijin) are found in the Solomons, Vanuatu, and New Guinea, where it is the major language used between different ethnic groups. In Pijin, a largely English vocabulary is reworked and blended with local grammar. Pijin's origin is commonly traced to 19th- century Chinese sandalwood traders (pijin is the Chinese pronunciation of the word for business). Today Pijin has become a globalized language of sorts in Oceania as trade and political ties develop between different native island groups. About 300,000 people in Oceania speak Pidgin on a regular basis (see Everyday Globalization: Hawaiian Pidgin).
