looks like this will become an annual tradition for me Feb 19, 2014

Why did they choose to use pidgin for the name of the holiday?

It seems ironic, given the nature of the holiday, but maybe I'm missing something.

(In the article, they use "mother tongue"; "native language" and "native tongue" are also both legitmate possibilities.)
