San Andrés-Providencia Creole is a Creole language spoken in the San Andrés and Providencia State of Colombia by the natives (the Raizal ethnic group), very similar to the Miskito Coastal Creole spoken in Bluefields, the Corn Islands and the Mosquitos Coast of Nicaragua.

Its vocabulary is originated in English language, but it has its own phonetic and many expressions from Spanish and African dialects of the "Kwa" languages (Twi, Ewe and Ibi languages) among others. However, it is not just a dialect with a different phonetic and syntaxis, but it has also its own grammar, different from English and Spanish.

Some of its characteristics:

It marks the time. The auxiliar "wen" (~ben~men) marks a past simple.

The auxiliars "beg" and "mek" before the sentence is a polite way to ask permission or asking something.

Other auxiliar words before the verb mark probability like "maita", "mos" and "mosi"; future tense like "wi" and "wuda"; obligation like "fi", "hafi" and "shuda"; probability like "kyan" and "kuda" and willing like "niid" and "waan".

There is not grammar distintion of gender.

Plural is marked with "dem" after the noun.
