Talk:pukpuk

I have always seen this as two words in New Guinea "puk puk". Puk puk is used widely in PNG, just as frequently in Papua, which was never German. (Pidgin was greatly influenced by German, and even German slang, such as "sec sec".) PNG Pidgin came from the German areas. Hubert Murray was not in favor of Pidgin, and wanted to impress English as the national language.203.220.105.20 09:13, 31 May 2016 (UTC)
