Kiautschou German pidgin

The Kiautschou German pidgin is a minor extinct pidgin spoken by German-educated Chinese in the Kiautschou Bay concession.

Background
There are records of some sort of a German pidgin developing since 1898. However, despite the high number of Germans within the concession, due to trade reasons, many preferred to use English instead. Thus, vigorous promotion of education of the German language commenced, and a slow transition from English to German began in the concession.

Sample sentences
The German pidgin never fully developed on its own, instead branching off of the pre-existing English pidgin. Though not extensively recorded, it can be inferred many different local variations exist.
