We speak french Creole. Which allows us to converse with other french creole speakers, and even some French people. I say some french people because in patois/creole, much of the tenses, and words are different. For example the creole and french words for goat are different.

😂 Hey not we eat monkey- some crazy people eat monkey… I no eat no monkey

Yes you can. The French Creole is spoken with slight differentiations among Haiti, Guadeloupe, Dominica, Martinique, St. Lucia and parts of Trinidad. I believe we can also converse with people from French Guyana. When i was in Dubai i was speaking patois/creole with some people from one of the islands around Africa Reunion and Mauritius. Indeed we can converse. ive seen it myself.

I get it!!! I was born in Panama to Jamaican parents and raised in the US since the age of 2. It’s really hard to answer the question. Where are you from? Especially because when I tell people I was born in Panama, they don’t believe me because I don’t speak too much Spanish and if I say I’m Jamaican, I get the third degree about which part I’m from and if I say I’m from here in Florida. They don’t believe me because they say I have an accent or I don’t look American 🤷🏾‍♀️

that boys parents should be embarassed, they need to buy him a book,and make sure he reads it.

Rice and Peas!

What does char char char mean

Although this guy is from St Lucia he is not speaking authentic Lucian Creole. He’s probably from the northern part of the island. However I give him credit for his efforts. Try getting someone from south of the island eg: Dennery, Vieux Fort, Laborie, Choiseul, Soufriere… you will definitely get the authentic version that will surprise you even more

Very interesting! I am from Louisiana originally so I have heard Creole spoken, but I don't speak it myself. I would love to learn someday.

Great info on Hurricane Beryl!

How about I was born in Kingtown, Jamaica. By Swedish diplomates, at 3 months moved to South Africa and my nanny thought me xhasa... which is my native language... so do you want I click your Jamaicain ass for I not being Jamaican.....?

When the map is pulled up my hometown is Clonmel in County Tipperary but there is a Clonmel in Jamaica also. Clonmel (Irish: Cluain Meala, meaning 'honey meadow') is the county town and largest settlement of County Tipperary, Ireland. The town is noted in Irish history for its resistance to the Cromwellian army which sacked the towns of Drogheda and Wexford. Except for the townland of Suir Island, most of the borough is situated in the civil parish of "St Mary's"which is part of the ancient barony of Iffa and Offa East.

Irish t'ings are quite like Jamaican t'ings, I have just discovered lol

Ye know I've just noticed (after watching your video about how Ireland influenced Jamaica) that Jamaicans pronounce "th" the same way as the Irish.. they're doin' t'ings, not things.

Great video! I met a guy tonight (in England) who comes from Mauritius, and he was a really good guy. Before I told me he was a Mauritian I thought he might have been from Haiti because I thought he sounded a bit Caribbean and French.. anyway, I looked up on my phone how to say goodbye and goodnight in Mauritian, and as he was leaving the place we were at I said to him "Salam, bonne nuit", and he turned back at me, smiled, and gave me a big thumbs-up. I'm sure it was nice to hear someone try to speak his own language in England, especially since us English often don't ever bother speaking other people's languages, even when we are in their countries lol Liked, commented and subscribed ;)

Lol I bet Google can’t filter that one! Koko kolangyet mammam’w 😂 is that the patreon exclusive swear that you referred to ? Lol!

Lady you don't even speak haitian creole

The official language is NOT English

Unless I'm mistaken, Irish and English are both co-official languages in the Irish Republic, though English is by far the most widely spoken. Irish is the native language, but also an offical language.

The Irish were indentured servants who had limited rights. Africans in the Americans were under chattel slavery. They had no rights as human beings. Further, the English in the early period of colonization in the carribean. directed Irish to procreate with African slaves in order to produce servants for the English Master's household.

We should be honest in history. Jamica was a British possession. Irish Army Regiments, under the British Empire, were assigned there in the 18th and 19th centuries. This is the primary reason why many Jamicans of African descent have Irish DNA. These relationships were both consentual and non-consentual. Clearly, the Irish-English accent has had an impact on the Jamican accent. This is why there are so many Irish surnames in Jamica. That all said, being an American and of Irish descent, I love the Jamicans and have always enjoyed my friendships with Jamican immigrants in the states and people of Jamican ancestry. Plus, Guinness and Jerk chicken 🐔 make for a fine dinner. ❤

Li jis rele Ayisyen

West Indian's drink Guinness, well the older ones do.

This was great

Fen in Kreyol means the same thing. We say grungou more but generally whenever fen is used I always connected it with starving.

Haitians use "ni" as well. But the context is different. Almost like a "neither" sort of meaning.

I am starting watching these videos and they are super interesting! However, to say that Seychelles creole may be English based, and giving also two totally French words as example is misinformation 😅

Karen just sounds French to me.

If a Chinese baby was adopted by a black family, will the baby be black or Chinese? Just because you move to a place doesn't automatically make you a person of that land!

Nah Karen is speaking French! lol I didn’t understand a damn thing 😂

At some Ghanaian funerals, the d ceased is allowed to take part. They may be clothed in fone raiments, a business suit and bow tie, and they are placed in a seated position, allowing mourners to greet them and wish them a happy afterlife. I don't think this was common on Ireland, though Dave Allen does include this in one of his many stories about death in Ireland.

I remember seeing white yardy for the first time, he did a skit with Warren Weir , he was hilarious 😂

❤

Seremei, love it

I'm 3 or 4 generation down.... and really want to know , to connection with my new families I find.

French-Guiana 🇬🇫 creole in South America

I wish Haitians would learn about Louisiana history and stop lying and spreading misinformation. Louisiana creole was already spoken years before Haitians even arrived in Louisiana territory. The French occupy the Louisiana territory around 1682. Saint Domingo was occupied around 1697. Also,10,000 Haitians arrived in New Orleans around 1804. That’s a very small number. And half of that left and went back to Haiti. In New Orleans, Louisiana creole was already spoken years before they arrived. Also Haitians did not travel or leave outside of New Orleans to other parts of the Louisiana territory. Other parts of Louisiana (Louisiana territory) did not have Haitian influence, and was already speaking creole. France not only colonized and occupy the Louisiana territory and Saint Domingo(Haiti)…. They also had other colonies whom they colonized around the 1600’s that spoke some type of French base Creole.

My grandma is from Dominica .. but 😂 our family is originally hatian

Listen this just doesn't make sense, it's pretty simple actually. If your Jamaican your Jamaican....... there's no question about it, if you are questioning the legitimacy of a Jamaican......your not Jamaican and you have no business even speaking on it😂.... No I'm not Jamaican but I damn well know that this is not a conversation that's going on in the streets of JA. This is apparently a first world country probably, only freaking Americans could come up with something so asinine........I'm sorry I apologize on behalf of my fellow Americans, please excuse them because they have an identity crisis. They can't imagine the possibility of meeting people who know where they come from and who they are........ rediculas

They just hate white people, let's be honest
