Abstract
The article considers the phenomenon of creole languages as a result of the convergence of different language systems within the theory of language contacts, gives a characteristic of the lusocreole languages and their classification. An important aspect of the work is a sociolinguistic comparative analysis of African and Asian lusocreole languages that regards some linguistic features of the widespread lusocreole African range and more isolated lusocreole languages of Southeast Asia and pays attention to the status of mentioned languages in these territories, local language policy and the nature of the relationship between creole and non-creole languages which is based on the concept of diglossia. The article discusses the development ways for African and Asian lusocreole languages and expresses concern about the processes of decreolization, which may in the future contribute not only to withering, but also to the complete disappearance of the original lusocreole cultures.
