	Kristang language - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Kristang is also spoken by some immigrants and their descendants in the United Kingdom, where some settled after independence, and also in Australia, in particular the city of Perth, which is a popular destination for retirees in the community.
		Kristang had a substantial influence on Macanese, the creole language spoken in Macau, due to subtantial migration from Malacca after its takeover by the Dutch.
		Kristang lexicon borowed heavily from Portuguese, but often with drastic truncation; for example Portuguese padrinho and madrinha ("godfather" and "godmother") became inyu and inya in kristang.
