The Angolar Creole; Portuguese of Sao Tome: Its Grammar and Sociolinguistic History Gerardo A. Lorenzino, Yale University The primary goal of this study is to explore the question of the genesis and development of the Angolar Creole Portuguese of Sao Tome and Pr\237ncipe (Gulf of Guinea), off the coast of West Africa.
Angolar is the language spoken by descendants of maroon slaves who escaped from Portuguese plantations on Sao Tome beginning in the mid-sixteenth century (1535-1550).
Modern divergences between Angolar and Santomense are the outcome of the lexical expansion and further restructuring which Santomense underwent as the result of its closer contact with Portuguese spoken on the plantations as opposed to differences in grammar and pronunciation which Angolar retained from early Santomense.

 Portuguese Creole - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Lungua N'golá" (or "Língua Angolar", in Portuguese) is mainly spoken in south of the São Tomé Island (main island of São Tomé and Príncipe) and by some people on the coast of the same island by Angolar fishermen.
The Creole uses, as a substrate, a dialect of Umbundo, a Bantu language from inland Angola, but is extensively influenced by Portuguese, mainly in lexicon level.
Also a Portuguese Creole (or pidgin) from Cape Verde reached these island, it was brought by the Sephardic Portuguese jews of Cape Verde, and it was a mixture of the Mina Portuguese Creole/Pidgin (a mixture of Cape Verdean Creole/Pidgin with Twi) and "Angolar" Portuguese Creoles/Pidgins (areas of Angola and Congo).

São Tomense and Angolar are spoken on São Tomé, Principense on Príncipe.
The 33% of the Angolar lexicon not shared with São Tomense is largely of Bantu origin, apparently KiMbundu of Angola, with some from Kongo, Bini, and Ndingi.
The Angolares are a distinct ethnolinguistic group from the Forros ('freedmen'), São Tomense speakers also on São Tomé Island.

 Word formation and lexico-semantic developments in Portuguese Creoles   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
On the other hand, the creole lexicon also reflects their particular social history in that the Angolares were initially a maroon community which developed outside the plantations on which São-Tomense originated.
In this paper I will analyze and compare the vocabulary of Angolar and São-Tomense in order to identify general lexico-semantic processes and word incorporation mechanisms both Portuguese and African-derived lexicon underwent in the two creoles.
Finally, it will be shown that the lexicosemantics, studied in conjunction with other linguistic subsystems of Angolar and São-Tomense, supplies critical evidence on the question of the genetic relationship of these two Portuguese-lexified creoles.

Together with a well defined antisolar tail more than 6' long, it was surprising to observe almost three principal linear jets ( at p.a.=40, 145 and 270) and two other secondary jets coming from the nuclear region toward solar direction too.
The angolar position of the jets seems costant during last week of July.
Images taken on August 16, show a great increase in the number and complexity of sunward jets, but olso a clear modification of the tail ( that now appears as dubble) (see very well the last images inclosed).

The commands to the robot are sended by right wheel speed and left whell speed,so I always know the angolar speed of the robot.
I only know the worst-case of the variance of the misure of the position of the robot,and I can suppose the error on the speed and angolar speed very small.

Commercially available inertial MEMS sensors include different types that can sense movement in one, two, or even three linear axis.
Some types also directly sense rotational acceleration around one axis and others, gyroscopes, can implement the function of a Coriolis-effect, sensing the angolar rate.
These sensors share the same principle of operation and sense movements by measuring changes in capacitance between moving and fixed structures.
