[@lyssiesworldd8453]

Arawaks were there before the Caribs and we have an English based creole with French and African influences but also A French Patois that is dying out sadly. However, there is efforts being made to revive it 🎉

[@donaldpolson5450]

👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 Yes French patois used to be spoken widely in Carriacou, where my family come from, great if these efforts come to fruition. Is it local or done through schools? I suspect education system wouldn't be supportive.

Granada was the original name given from Spain ,the French came and change it to De La Grenade then the British came and change it to Grenada

[@doreenramsey1016]

Spain did not set foot here French did. Fake history

[@isiomaamma9869]

@@doreenramsey1016 No body said Spain landed on the island but they give it the name Granada because it's looks like a town in Spain with the said Name sake go do you history deep

[@NMiller80666]

Actually, the spanish also named the island concepción in 1498, then Granada before the English anglocised the spelling to Grenada @@doreenramsey1016 . The indigenous name of the island was Camáhogne.

[@donaldpolson5450]

The original Caribbean name was Camerhogne. Columbus when he sighted the island called it Concepcion. He never called it Granada but it is true he remarked its topology reminded him of Granada. The name Granada first appeared on Spanish maps many years later. When the French over a century later invaded they renamed it La Grenade. The British who took over a century after that anglicised it to Grenada

[@isiomaamma9869]

Sorry the shutters came down and I stopped watching if this is the approach to research. For future reference: Gre-NAY-dah not Gra-nar--dah. For other possible Caribbean misquotes: Antigua = An-tee-gah not An-tig-gwa St Lucia = Loo-sha not Loo-cee-ah Guyana = Guy-anna not Ghana or Gee-yar-na

Ok, the taino/arowak people were on majority of the islands first including my ancestral home of Grenada and Xaymaca(Jamaica). Please don't leave us out. Also use a real human voice. Computers never pronounce the name properly. Also tourism is not what the island depends on but agriculture.
