About

Kristang is a endangered language spoken by less than 100 people in Singapore. It is the heritage languages of the Portuguese-Eurasian community and an intangible and priceless aspect of the community’s culture, tradition and history — a treasure unique to our region.

In Singapore, there are no official statistics on Kristang speakers. No children are known to be learning Kristang, and it is not taught in schools, seen on the media, or spoken in the streets. It is not used in religious services, and has no festivals today. Most Singaporeans are not aware Kristang exists.

Kodrah Kristang is changing that reality.

Kristang Wikipedia pages and entries

Efforts to add information about Kristang to Wikipedia are continuously unjustifiably blocked or removed by a user or bot known as MrOllie, who appears to have a known and publicly documented formal and informal reputation for blocking factual information and editing on the community platform, with multiple reports of this behaviour available across a variety of subject fields and domains. For this reason, all information on pages related to Kristang on Wikipedia, Wikimedia, Wiktionary and other associated sites should be taken as having extremely dubious provenance at best; Kodrah Kristang and the Kabesa will also decline all invitations to edit Wikipedia, Wikimedia, Wiktionary and other associated sites until this issue has been resolved.
