If you're not familiar with the Pidgin Language, it's a bit of a slang form of English that is basically super cool!

Instead of saying, "So... the food is not to your liking?"
In Pigeon you say: "What? you no like da food?!!"

Instead of saying, "How are you doing today?"
In Pigeon you say: "Eh, Brah, Howzit?!"

Instead of saying, "That individual is fairly wealthy."
In Pigeon you say: "Ho Brah! He get choke money!!"
