People who grew up in Montserrat, W.I fully comprehend 99 per cent of Jamaican Patois. Similar patois spoken there, of course, ‘the Queens English’ is spoken by all as it is taught from A B C classes. Also, having Jamaican friends help too. OFCOURSE, ‘proper English’ is taught to ALL CARIBBEAN CHILDREN, every Island has their own form of Patois though.

Maybe it's me but to "run a boat" is where you get together with others and put some money together to buy the ingredients to cook a meal for all that input the money 🤔

Is Yuh Zimi the same as Seen? I recall Peter Tosh used to end a lot of sentences with “Seen?”

Its not "zimmi". It's simmi - a contraction of "you, and see, and me" or "youseeme" said at speed, and it becones "yuhsimmi". There's no z.

Sharing our legacy is good but translating is no no , to defeat a person is to know their language don't give away too much 🤦🏽‍♀️

Love your program, but I thought 'Run boat' was about a group of brethren at home (pon di corner) that have nothing to eat, put all their resources together and prepare a meal which usually include some 'cart wheel' dumplin.

Rasta: "🔥 pon di pork" 😂😂😂

Why is this necessary ? Who it is from the Philippines or any other country teaching us their language? We have become a pappy show country and people. Give ideas on how our children can become producers

I'm Jamaican but heard so many of these,phrases

Many of these sayings are known in many other Caribbean islands too who will understand, not just Jamaicans. If we have to get really technical, Patwah, correct spelt Patois, actually means broken French. Check the way Antiguans and Montserratians speak in their local dialects and you will hear many of the same phrases and idioms that are popular in the Jamaican dialect.

Out of many one people 🖤💚💛

Dialect is different from slang.

Out of many…ONE PEOPLE❤️💛☘️

I am Vincentian and we speak like this.not just Jamaican.

Fence up your argument is out of this world funny😅😅😅

I like to hear the Jamaican dialect/ patois but do not understand.

Love your show eventhough some of the slangs are New to me, Love it anyway however the word we call Patwah, the way you spelt it is incorrect, the correct spelling is Patois.

Lets teach old times Proverbs..Irie fm has it on jamaica roots and culture..but make a class for people to learn them..

Well said. Tan todi! Yu mek mi a pap up fi reel.
