Ndyuka
Ndyuka or Aukan, also called Ndyuká tongo or Okanisi, is a
creole language of
Suriname. Many of the 25 to 30,000 speakers live in the interior of the country, which is a part of the country covered with
tropical rainforests. Ethnologue lists
two related languages under the name Ndyuka.They proudly identify themselves as
Maroon people. The Ndyuka, who are of African descent, were cruelly shipped as slaves to Suriname about 300 years ago and forced to work on the colonial plantations. They escaped from the plantations and went deep into the rain forests where they formed their own unique communities along various rivers in eastern Suriname and in some parts of neighboring
French Guiana.
