In recent years, the natural language processing (NLP) community has given increased attention to the disparity of efforts directed towards high-resource languages over low-resource ones.

• Efforts to remedy this delta often begin with translations of existing English datasets into other languages.
• However, this approach ignores that different language communities have different needs.
• We consider a group of low-resource languages, Creole languages.
