Annotation

This study argues that Koud Zyé, a Kréyòl-language segment introduced into the local nightly news in Caribbean Guadeloupe, constitutes a moment in an enregisterment process. It is suggested that the program helps to clarify conceptions and knowledge of the studied Kréyòl variety that activists have imported in Guadeloupean schools.
