Tetum (also Tetun) is an Austronesian language spoken on the island of Timor. It is spoken in Belu Regency in Indonesian West
Timor, and across the border in East Timor, where it is one of the two official languages. In East Timor a creolized form,
Tetun Dili, is widely spoken fluently as a second language; without previous contact, Tetum and Tetun Dili are unintelligible.
Besides the grammatical simplification involved in creolization, Tetun Dili has been greatly influenced by the vocabulary
of Portuguese, the other official language of East Timor. |
