MISS LOU: Fi Wi Language (Jamaican Patwah)

[@jaye-ellaruth]

My grand aunt. Talawa. Goddess energy. From one very proud grand niece... Now that’s what I call legacy. 😘💜🎤👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

[@slipfriction]

One of the greatest women that ever lived. Uplifting the Jamaican culture as a positive movement. If we don't be careful our children of Jamaican descent will lose out on this diverse heritage. Great video, respect!

[@lunettemartin3823]

Tenk you miss lue a you mek me can chat any wea mi go and some body know say mi a Jamaican

[@Mrs.T305]

@Slipfriction....Many of them have already lost it. And when we try to connect with the culture, we're called Yankees. But when Jamaican ppl start that rubbish with me, mi ready fi dem. I'm so proud of my heritage.

[@magicgardens66]

Ms. Lou thanks for gracing my childhood memories with your folk songs and ring ding episodes, these I still adore.

[@natwil735]

The one and only, the inimitable, Jamaican icon, the late great Ms Lou.

[@ChatPatwah]

One of the greatest Jamaicans ever!!! ❤️

[@StrongCaramel]

That laugh oh hers is what I enjoy the most. Kills me every time. You have to laugh right along with her:-)

[@beefysmith4211]

I listened to her at the Carifesta in Barbados in 1981,with this monologue . After that I became proud of my rich Caribbean dialect . We as a Carribbean people should be proud of our rich heritage and culture. What is fantastic about us , each island has its own dialect but can relate to each other. We have dialect and can write standard English.

[@l360b]

We in Jamaica spent time to develop our dialect into a language

[@lesleydeen]

Proud Jamaican right here!!!!💖💖💖💖🙌🙌🙌🙌

[@naciamaJYute]

Should be the 2nd heroine! Bob says we need to emancipate ourselves from mental slavery. That's what this lady is for Jamaicans: Our emancipator. She help to teach Jamaicans to love themselves and their culture!

[@tllewis9670]

I LOVE this lady!!!

[@MadAnticsTV]

Miss Lou was the best and, I can't believe that 9 people actually clicked dislike. They are not from Jamaica or just don't understand so, they dislike it. Complete ignorant to what they can't understand.

[@ardennite1]

Yes, we read “Colonisation in Reverse” when I was at school in Kingston, after I arrived there from England. Of course, my English Lit teacher picked me out to read it in front of the whole class in my London accent !

[@michelleparson1547]

Love listening to this. Miss Lou has inspired me to create Mama Soulongou Bambamcherio and continue with the story telling. The labrish sweet, Ah nuh true!

Chief Wanga yes, Jamaican dialect is mixed with Spanish

[@omalone1169]

Easy Rider interesting as I know they used to teach Spanish in Jamaican schools.

[@desrenenaturals8954]

I know a lot of Jamaicans migrated to Costa Rico to help build the railway a very long time ago so I've heard of the community in Limón that speak Jamaican patois.
