About the Krio Language

Krio is an English-based creole and the lingua franca of Sierra Leone, spoken by virtually the entire 8-million-person population (most as a second language). It's closely related to the English-based creoles of West Africa (Pidgin Nigeria, Cameroonian Pidgin) and the Caribbean (Jamaican Patois). The Krio-speaking community in Canada is small, concentrated in the Toronto area. Our Krio translation work is occasional and typically tied to refugee-protection claims stemming from Sierra Leone's 1991-2002 civil war and subsequent migration.

  • Primary regions: Sierra Leone
  • Language origin / family: Sierra Leone
  • Estimated speakers: 5 million
