Good attempt and interesting video. I especially loved the part with the place names. However, for those of us from Jamaica who know the island's geography and history well, there are a few things in the video that are not correct. He said the interior of the island is made up of plains and valleys in the west sometimes referred to as cockpit country The interior of the island is mountainous with plains and valleys closer to the coast. The area referred to as the Cockpit country is a very hilly densely forested area that from the air resembles an egg crate. The counties of Cornwall and Surrey should be switched. Cornwall is in the west and Surrey in the East. The Blue Lagoon in Portland is not a mineral spring. It is an inlet or bay from the sea. It is Ocho Rios not Ochos Rios. It literally translates to 8 rivers in English. The Blue Mountains do NOT start in Kingston. They start in St. Andrew and stretch across three other parishes, St. Thomas, St. Mary and Portland. Kingston is to the south of the St Andrew. As mentioned the mountains are in the interior.

Actually ackee is not salty or sweet it doesn't taste like much but pulls the taste of whatever it's mixed with.... That's how I'd describe it see the dish is ackee and saltfish so it's the dried salted cod fish that allows for the dish to be salty

Channel of Lords... The Indians brought curry to Jamaica and now it is one of the most loved and widely used spices/seasonings on the island, especially in the popular curried chicken and goat dishes. The bandana fabric/print, also brought from India, is part of the national costume and is usually worn on special national commemorative events, such as the Independence festivities etc. Another fact of note is that Indians own and operate most of the major jewelry stores in Jamaica and are also into other businesses such as shopping centres etc.

Patois is not a "feel it as you go thing" it might seem that way because it's a Creole language and performance plays a huge part when speaking it, but it has structure and it's one of the most studied Creole language in the region. Plurals always end in "dem". They are always regular for example in English you say children but in Jamaican language you say "pikin dem", in English you say "ghosts", in Jamaican language you say "duppy dem", it's always regular. It has structure they just haven't agreed on a singular script so it's constantly changing. Standardization is coming and Jamaican language will be used as medium to teach other subjects such as Science, History, and Math. I'll give you a basic phrase and break it down for you: Fi unu chat patwa? Fi= Denotes motion or direction unu= plural you(English doesn't have a plural you, there is no distinction anymore) chat=English lexicon "to talk" patwa: Jamaican language Words that don't have meaning but denote a sound are called ideophones, that what makes the language a performance.

You also have to take into consideration that a person living in Ocho Rios may speak a different variety of patois than someone who lives in Kingston. As a Jamaican, I have friends who speak completely different and at times, I may not understand a term that they use because they are from a different part of the island that speaks differently.
