[@bumpbeyondbloglive5888]

Love this!!! My mom is haitian. Didn’t teach me because she suffered a lot of persecution and bullying as a kid for not speaking English. I decided to teach myself and I wish this video was around when I started teaching myself. I love it! Can’t wait to teach my children

[@blacksuprimprod]

GOD JOB

[@KiLLJOY1056]

Im a white boy who group up in a haitian household and the music in the background brought me back to the family parties they used the throw and i would be up til 3am dancing and eating and having fun. I miss my haitian family. They tried to teach me the language but i was so young i didnt appreciate it. Now im back here trying to learn so i can visit them and impress them. Thank you for your lessons!

[@about1082]

how did it go?

[@mendozarodriguez4195]

im learning creole to be able to communicate with the people around me. they are so kind when they see you trying, its a nice way to connect

[@alexmwangi4244]

Haitians are the most peaceful people and very social. I have decided to learn their beautiful language in hope that one day l will pay a visit to this famous world' s. first black Independent country. May God remember Haiti 2024.

[@octavia_vee]

most “peaceful” people? Hmmm, but very “social” yes!

[@fluiddestiny4895]

Merci beaucoup pour cette video! C'est super! I just started Haitian Creole in Duolingo. I know I'll need more, so I'm a new subscriber. 🇭🇹🥰🇨🇦

[@oliviasommerville4733]

I’m starting Haitian Créole on Duolingo as well! m ap aprann kreole :) Hopefully I’ll be able to keep up with my lessons

[@frankbonet8101]

Same here with Duolingo, but I think this channel will do more for me then just learning how to write it. The conversational part is more to me.

[@octavia_vee]

Samee

[@lyniahcephas3549]

Thank you so much My dad is Haitian and my mom is Jamaican but my dad never taught me Haitian Creole I always used to hear him talking with my family I only know certain words but I’ve always wanted to be able to understand and talk to my elders and soon teach my children

[@aaliyaholiphant7504]

Same for me💯

[@totallytaly1652]

That’s so weird because it’s the same for me 😭

[@Bk_Auyanna]

Exact same situation with me 🇯🇲🇭🇹

[@christellepetithomme2286]

She said that the number is 6AM

[@focus6773]

Good job for doing this type of content, I am a proud Haitian and see myself as Kreyol ambassador. My goal is to encourage Haitian parents in the diaspora to teach our native language to their children it's such a great heritage! Thanks again, our people, this world need you

[@MichellaneousMe]

Thank you for this video. My mom is from port-au-prince, but struggled to learn English and had a hard time growing up in the US due to language barriers. She decided to make sure I learned English first because of it, but now I want to learn Haitian Creole to surprise her and have a little piece of her home 💕

[@davidlucien7692]

👍👍👍👍👏👏👏

[@_manofreal3133]

I feel you. My dad's side is Haitian. My grandma passed recently and she only spoke creole. Since she's gone I've been longing to get closer to my roots

[@jean-ronytoussaint7233]

Bonjour Hermantha, C'était un plaisir de voir ton podcast en vidéo. Moi, je suis polyglotte et j'adore la façon dont tu enseignes aux gens un petit morceau de notre culture à travers du créole.

[@Defnotjolie]

Thank you, my parents didn’t talk to me in creole nor my siblings. I was born in America but they are from Haiti. I really wish they would’ve taught me.

[@austingray6885]

I’m Puerto Rican learning a third language, thank you for this video.

[@lorena_arcelay]

Me too!

[@msllubin8]

I'm grateful my parents were proud to pass down their heritage+language to me. I want to pass it down to my children

[@alexcosta1880]

Thank you for this video! There are lots of Haitian people where I live and work, so I feel like I could learn that beautiful language to improve my communication with them.

[@shardajackson3401]

Thank you so much for these series! My boyfriend is Haitian and I’m going to meet his dad in July and would love to be able to have a small conversation with him and his family 😊😊

[@kitzz244]

Ohh! Sa bien! Bon travay! Oh that’s good! Good job!

[@BeingMimi]

I'm so glad I found your channel. Mes meilleures amies sont d'origine haïtienne. Sa fait plus que dix ans que nous sommes amies and they would always talk in creole I said no More ... Listening to your channel and recently added it on Duolingo!!

[@Vantage9SEVEN9]

Im looking to learn and become fluent in Haitian Creole and I just found your channel. My people (on 1 side) are of Hatian decent and some earlier gens spoke but later gens were not taught. I did, however, learn French in high school so one challenge is NOT to say the certain words the French way. I'll get it tho! I do not yet know how far you went with teaching the lessons, but I'm subscribed now, so I will find out. If you have any other recommendations for others channels teaching, pls inform. Thank you for sharing with us.

[@lootshxx]

It was pretty easy for me, I've never spoken my language before and i like it probably also explains why English doesn't make sense to me sometimes. Oh btw I'm Haitian American and Native American a big half of my family is native from my mom's side and my dad's side.

[@NoBodyKnows514]

J'adore le R! 🤍 c'est tellement intense. Le créole c'est tellement chill et musicale je trouve. Always loved hearing it growing up.

[@TiarreaB.Naturally]

Love this. My Bestie is Haitian so I want to learn so we can talk in different ways. ❤ It's such a beautiful culture.

[@QueeneAllie]

Hey @Hermantha. I'm a French teacher and I'm super excited to have found your channel so I can learn more about Kreyol and Haitian culture!

[@jeremiasrobinson]

Thank you for making Haitian language videos! I have been practicing on Duolingo and I love this language!

[@ryangreenwood1270]

Do you think that app is useful?

[@jeremiasrobinson]

@@ryangreenwood1270 It is useful but its level of usefulness depends on if you are using it as a sole source of learning, or if you are using it as one tool out of many to learn. There are less resources available for learning Creole than other languages, so I would also suggest using a language exchange app as well.

[@octavia_vee]

⁠​⁠@@ryangreenwood1270 it is useful, I learned a lot of phrases and words.

[@stephlovesmusic3167]

Thank you for this! I was born in Haiti but was adopted to the US before 3 so never fully learned the language and always wanted to

[@suryavajra]

Your vid is my first lesson of Haitian Kreyol!

[@JessieSimmonsMusic]

wow lol I just took in I didn't know the Haitian alphabet. hahaha I loved the video!!!!! can't wait for the rest of the series ❤️❤️

[@learntospeaklikeanative]

Good

[@annacaona]

I am soooo jealous of you. You are pretty-beautiful, pretty-fun. Your english / french /haitian accent in on point. GIrrrrrrrl you ROCK !!!!. En Haiti, helas, je fais parti de ces generations d'haitiens qui n'ont pas recu un cours formel de la langue haitienne a l'ecole. Je suis une autodidacte, plutot ratee. Certaines lettres alphabetiques que tu as mentionne, me sont completement inconnues. Donc un grand merci et chapo ba !

[@masala5024]

Mesi for this video I am Haitian descent as well and I am very proud of my Haitian culture. renmen ou for this video Mesi a tout moun

[@saphahmelkisedek9762]

Yay! So glad I found you. I'm Dominican, just found out my grandma is half Haitian 😔! Always wanted to learn it bc I have beautiful Haitian friends ... Now I absolutely have to! Thank you for your time. I took French in school and see a littb bit of resemblance 🇩🇴❤️🇭🇹❤️

[@herlandadavilma-zg2sd]

Creole derives mostly from French and is also a mixture of several languages including Spanish.

[@crystalortega9]

Hello Hermantha, you have a new subscriber now, I love your lessons. Let me know if you put up the Haitian Creole learning series yet?

[@JuiceBoxJunkies]

Our church has a large Haitian outreach, and we fellowship throughout the year at our general and international meetings. I am trying to learn the language and culture so that I can mingle with my Haitian sisters in the Lord, and who knows, maybe even visit Haiti one day!

[@taidai2u]

Can you or did you provide the different dialects of Haitian Creole? If not, do you know what part your family came from to get an idea on what possible dialect could be learnt?

[@natelion06]

From louisiana trying to learn the language we get our accent and own version of Creole from! It’s insane cause at 6:45 you sounded like a New Orleans girl sayin “Lindsey”, or let me rephrase: A New Orleans girl saying that sounds like you 😂 that’s so cool

[@buttercup5920]

Girl you look like Clair from tv show My wife and kids 😂❤❤she also played in You Got Served 😊

[@jaybates1101]

Bon zanmi mwen se ayisyen. Mwen vle aprann kreyól. Mwen te itilize Duolingo, men li difisil. I really love your channel so far!!

[@myrlandedesir27]

Bonsoir Please keep this channel going. I was looking for a way to teach my sons my native language. They enjoyed you. You make it super fun. Did I say I have 2 boys? The 6 years old one love ❤️ your beauty 😂 Great 👍 work!

[@Gemswithdiana]

Congrats on having 1k subscribers you have reached your goal! You did that. Girl, your paycheck from KZbin is on its way! Great job on your crash course, continue to educate your people.

[@Hermantha]

Thank you so much for your support girl!! 🤍🤍

[@Gemswithdiana]

@@Hermantha Got you Sis!

[@AR-ye2rt]

Thank you this was very informative. Much appreciated.🙏🏾

[@frankbonet8101]

This is good for me since I'm having lots of haitian kids coming to my school.

[@Saint222s]

Felt attacked with the “I want better for you” 😂😅

[@UmmiBeTv]

merci anpil wi. i’m going to start watching everyday with my five year old 💖

[@psb_turplex358]

Thank you so much😭 my mom never spoke to me in creole when I was young cause my dad is jamaican and didn't understand

[@Mylc03]

Thank you for teaching me the Haitian alphabet😁👍🏽!

[@meioshashubrick5650]

i was born in haiti but my mom dad and the rest of my family moved to te states when I was 2 but she never fully thought me creole

[@lynnthurston9296]

Enjoyed the video! Great teacher!

[@RileyElite11]

Can you do another video using the letters and how to pronounce them with words

[@nevaehsarchive_]

My mom is Haitian and she grew up around her family and I was around the Haitian side bc the family too just on holidays and I never learned and now I want to learn to be able to speak with my grandfather

[@Divergent_0910]

I was looking some lessons to learn Haitian creole language but I used to write the key words in french. Now I found your channel I'm not going to let it go 😅

[@vanelguillot1]

You’re absolutely amazing!

[@widzermonplaisir4622]

Felisitasyon paske w se yon gro profesè

[@estebangutierrez160]

As someone who knows Spanish at a very beginner's level, I gotta say I do see and hear plenty of Spanish words and influences. Like Y in Haitian Creole is also very close to the Spanish words for Y, I griega.

[@meggoe]

this is honestly the best looking person i ever seen. #needthat

[@evancrum6811]

Thanks! Married a 1st generation Haitian American. She understands some Creole but not enough to teach me.

[@wadlonde5717]

Kathleen disant "M nan blakawout" et le "ok baz" bon jan kreyøl ahahaha! Mèsi anpil pou kou eksprès lan lol. CONGRATULATIONS for your 1K!!!!🎉🎊

[@renejr2296]

I enjoy the energy in your video. You remind me of my sister 😂. I'm a proud and terrible creole speaking Haitian 🤦🏾‍♂️ who's found hope in your channel 🥺 - New Subscriber 👍🏾💯

[@sheluvrejext_-2178]

Lmaooooo “I want better for you” 😭😭😭

[@beiridescence492]

So happy to find you

[@SunshineQu33n]

My real comment : that was so good!! J’ai aimé comment tu as dit boule avec l’accent anglais 😂 et le black-out 😂😂😂😂 CONGRATS FOR 1K🥳🥳🥳🎉🍾

[@Hermantha]

Non mais, c’est vrm comme ça qu’ils le prononcent 😭😭 Thanks sis 🥰

[@sarimsok83]

Cool, I'm Canadian (mostly anglophone), and I get the French part of your language. For the most part I can get by with my French then.

[@Fannyjoestar]

" I will speak French too"my Spanish ass barely speaking English trying to learn Haitian in French 💀

[@adainisart246]

Because of the way I spoke when I was young, my parents thought that I spoke Creole when I didn't (I would have this accent when I speak to zoes if you know what I mean). I spoke a little at that time but I wasn't fluent.

[@lunar_moon5596]

Are you going to do more of these lessons?

[@1peachcobler]

Currently learning Haitian via Duolingo and I wish the first thing they taught was the alphabet and numbers because I think learning would have been a little easier just started about 3 weeks ago

[@pierrelouisjose]

Bondye beniw 👏👏👏

[@ChrisannaDaye]

Thank YOU for wanting better for us!!!!!❤

[@dayshawanbrown4436]

Girl you too pretty😙

[@claremujuni6723]

Can you make lessons for hospital words, sayings or phrases so I can better help my patients that I care for please? A Healthcare Setting Creole lesson playlist or something?

[@claudeduviella807]

[@RockyMizik]

That's a beautiful and hard work. As a rectification, we don't say EN(1) when counting. We say ; Zewo (0) YOUN or YONN (1) De(2)... J'ai apprecié la vidéo pour de vrai.

[@chrissystewart6268]

I'm new to your channel let's learn 🇭🇹 creole. I met 🇭🇹 people during Barack Obama's Presidency. In my childhood I never play with Caribbean kids I never have Caribbean friends. I never have Caribbean food in my childhood. I'm ready to try 🇭🇹 food & desserts. I'm allergic to seafood but I still want to try 🇭🇹 dishes

[@someone1415]

I like how close it is to French

[@robossthinking1056]

You should try to do a Haitian Creole soft spoken (ear to ear trigger words) I bet you people would learn it quicker haha
