I really wouldn’t consider Hawaiian pidgin to be a separate language. It’s mutually intelligible with English

Indonesian and Malaysian (Bahasa) are considered separate languages but they are so similar and Malaysia even harmonised grammar and syntax with Indonesia post independence.

Can you make a video about why Swissgerman isn't considered a different language from standard German? Many Swiss people say that it is a language, I kind of agree since it evolved off of middle high German and not from modern German.
