Creole

Creole, in this sense, means a language that has developed from a pidgin to become the accepted language of some region.

A pidgin is a mixture of two languages.

The word creole comes from French and Spanish roots, and was originally used in the 16th century to describe people of European ancestry born in North or South America.
