My fellow Jamaicans, put Jamaican Patois on your resume because I thought we were understandable but after this Lmaoo we are bilingual 😭
For real! I thought it was fairly instinctive. I guess I was wrong.
me dead yo 🤣
We actually ARE bilingual fren 😁
lmao nah same i always seh how mi wish mi coulda speak spanish bcs jamaican patois is so easy fi understand but this video proved me wrong 💀
😆
As a South African hearing the "Cho" made me lose my mind. Black people we are so connected it's insane
what does it mean in South Africa please???? I LOVE when we find our commonality! We are after all long lost relatives 🙂
It's more of an expression than a word. It has no meaning. It just adds to whatever you were saying
@@keletsongake2884 Yes! It's the same for us! I can't really explain what it means myself lol
@@keletsongake2884 cho normally appears before or after a negative comment, usually use to show frustration.
@@oranebrown2169 Yes and no, because Cho can also be used in conjunction with a swear word to express the surprise of all surprises, i.e Cho bumbo***!!
As a Jamaican, this is hilarious 😂
Must I tell u 😂😂
The second Jamaican is questionable Iv never seen that outfit since I was born in Jamaica and still in Jamaica
Lmao. Bless them. Rihanna? Work? 😂😂
as a jamaican i think this is borderline racist and stupid those arent real jamaicans
facts
I’m a child of Jamaican immigrants that cannot speak patois but understood everything 😂
Same.
riiiiiight
@@illcon4829 happy emancipation day!🇯🇲
Dats bad.
Same
The fact that Mr.Jeffrey is almost 80 years old is sending me. I haven’t seen his face on my screen in a while. Seeing him here today is such a treat. 🤗🤗
I thought the same thing!
Where he from?
who is he? what's he known for?
I think he was in the "black or white" video of Michael Jackson
@@keesikay lol omg it does look like him
It's so interesting to see how people interpret our dialect. Makes it seem more complicated than it actually is.
Honestly 🥲
When you have no clue what people are saying, it's always complex. Lmao.
I understood most of these, but I also did grow up around a lot of Jamaicans.
@@n25bast I did also and still barely understand. Idk what is it with me and accents. Even a person with a British accent I have a hard time understanding 🤦🏽♀️
Ikr
I'm from Africa.. Ghana to be exact and I actually did well guessing what they were saying... I'm so proud of myself 👏🏾😁... I salute all my Jamaican brothers and sisters ❤️🇯🇲
I hear that Ghana and Jamaica are very similar in culture .
@Rashad Bakshar Yes. Many Jamaican slaves were from Ghana. I think some also came from Nigeria.
We even have a village called Accompong where the Maroons live. They speak a version of Jamaican Patios that is very similar to the Akan language. There are some videos on CZcams where Ghanaians visited Maroons from various Caribbean Islands and some South American countries, and they were able to speak to each other 🙂 We are family that has been separated and taught to hate each other. We have more in common than we do difference.
@@shaylataylor9525 Yes! According to my DNA I am almost 50% Nigerian. There is Accompong town and Abeokuta national park in Jamaica 🙂. I'm from Westmoreland where enslaved people were taken from Abeokuta in Nigeria.
I’m Ghanaian and Jamaican. I have to say there are so many similarities in culture.
As a Jamaican and I just kneeeeew I'm gonna laugh😂😂😂
I love my native tongue. Yall did good enough😊🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
Rolling up to our 60th independence this was amazing to watch. Thank you !🇯🇲🇯🇲🤗
Timely seeing these on my TL today the 1st ⚫️🟢🟡
ikr I said this just a while ago
❤
Please please please do one with Jamaicans guessing Nigerian Pidgin!!!
Yes please, or vice versa either way
I wish someone could teach me! 😫
They would get them right cause they are almost similar
That wouldn't make sense
As a Jamaican myself I can assure you even I get lost with the similarities. So it would be great to see. I think Nigerians have an easier time with Patois. Both videos would be amazing to see.
I cackled when they felt more sure about Rihanna being Jamaican (she isn't) and they weren't sure whether Sean Paul is Jamaican and he actually is 😆
I guessed all of these correctly. I'm from Turks and Caicos 🇹🇨 Patois can actually be more complicated than this. Jamaicans from the countryside aka "country" speak way faster and sometimes use their own phrases that are unique to their area.
You are absolutely correct lol
I'm from Barbados🇧🇧 and I nearly died laughing re: Rih reference 😂 tho technically "Rude Boy" is dancehall influenced.
That would have been hard for them
I wish I could like this comment a thousand times 😭😂
The fact they confused Sean Paul with Sean Kingston
These guesses are funny😆 I thought everyone understood us.
Admittedly, I didn't know the African-origin words or the modern slang words but I understand the rest and used context clues and knew what they were talking about. 🇯🇲
some words are a bit understood, but the fast talking i have to listen slowly lol
Poor mi think dem understand wi😂
When I was in Jamaica I could somewhat get by but it was a struggle😂 some phrases are so close to English but some are completely different
Okay, this makes me feel a little better about myself... as a Jamaican American I be thinking I understand patois perfectly, but I'm quickly humbled when I go back to visit. Don't know what they're saying 50% of the time 🤣
Me too girl, 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
Sameeeee! 😂
I'm the opposite.... born and raised in the bronx ny...I caught that patois so perfectly...ppl ask me... where me come from inna Jamaica... all the time.... visiting...I look different... but they can't trick me FOR NOTHING!!! 🤣🤣🤣
this!!!!
Same but I'm from London lol, I can understand it but when I speak it back I sound dumb af
The way they’re pronouncing “patois”
It was so cringe!!
How do you pronounce it?
@@SOULarLioness Patois, generally pronounced "pat• wa" by Jamaicans.
It hurt my soul each time 😭
@@SOULarLioness PAT-twa
"Reh reh reh reh" carries sooooooo many meanings - it can mean knick-knack, or excitement (positive or negative) or argument; it can be used to summarize an argument, or even used in the same way north Americans use "whatever-whatever, or what-not.
As a child of jamaican and Trinidadian parents I understood everything it made me realize that understanding my st elizabeth family made it easy to understand the rest of the island
🇯🇲best mix🇹🇹👍🏾
We Jamaicans are the most entertaining & genuine people on the planet 🌍🇯🇲
😭😭😭
YES WE ARE 🙌🏽
we always a keep lol
i second this
Most is hyperbolic....
But why does his face look drawn
Rihanna ?? 🤣🤣🤣 she’s not even Jamaican
Lol I died at that part 😭
The embarrassment as a caribbean person
Well, wasn't she appropriating Jamaican culture? Like Dancehall & all that stuff lol idk.
@@mustardmillionare no because she is from Barbados and they also have a patois. Plus Soca ❤️❤️
@@Talisa3636 i dont know what ur talking about, she DID use Jamaican patois. She hardly ever used her bajan creole
The Young Lady was Right Sean Paul and Sean Kingston are Jamaican . The Guy Saying Rihanna is 🤣😂🤣 on the floor now in stitches. Ri Ri is Barbadian a Yard Gurl .
We need Atlanta hood translations next!
Im from London but because of 85 south, I'm fluent
😭
what if they had DC or one of Face's homies on it
Oh. dear. GOD. 😂😂😂
I'm a costarican Jamaican descendant and I am honestly surprised that I understood the great majority. In Costa Rica there is a province called Limón which was mostly populated by Jamaicans. Sadly the patois is not being passed down to the younger generations. You still hear the old folks talking it which is so heartwarming
I've heard of this but sadly that is the reality of speaking a minority low prestige language, children don't want to learn it because they see it as backwards and adults don't want to teach it because they don't see it as economically beneficial.
I saw this video of a Bocas del Toro Panamanian saying "Chico, hablame como los bomboclaat jamaicanos. Somos jamaicanos. A wi roots and culture" and it made me tear up that that was how he felt about the decline of hos language
It's like San Andrea Island in Colombia. Jamaicans were taken there. They speak patois mixed with Spanish
Can you guys have to foreign black people try and guess AAVE phrases/sentences? I think that'd be unique.
Love from the Midwest.
@Rashad Bakshar Hmm, why do you think that is?
@Rashad Bakshar I really doubt it, I’m from Indiana and even the slang I use here other black ppl from different States don’t know what it means
@Rashad Bakshar just sounds like your biased towards foreign blacks then for black Americans
I think it would be fun there is still confusion between UK and USA English so guessing AAVE would be a roller coaster for foreign black people🤣
@Rashad Bakshar wait are you saying you think Non- American black people would understand aave better than we would understand the languages of foreign black people? because I could understand that but it's really because we don't care about the outside world. Black American culture is just very mainstream and American culture generally is very globally popular.
bro, Jeffery almost look animated 😂
Mn look straight out of a anime 💀
When I saw the thumbnail, I thought he was a caricature of an actual person.
The beard was confusing
@@krystingrant6292 😂😂 it’s not centered correctly
Omg not he didn’t know Sean Paul was Jamaican ahdhdhdhd
Lmaoooo
😂😂😂😂
Crassis means problem/misfortune. I don't know what the girl in the mustard was saying. Bad intentions is badmind/mixup in Jamaican Patois.
Video was fun though ☺️ Everything else was straight
trueeee
Yes !
You are right! Her translation was off 🤣
Wow! Bad intentions is also badmind in Nigerian pidgin or “bad ting fo mind” interesting..
Crassis makes me think of crisis which kinda works 🤔
As a Guyanese American, I understood everything, and I'm low-key shook at how similar the Patois is lol
Lots of Guyanese use Jamaican patois from what they hear in dancehall music. Naturally the patois r very different.
Guyanese people does sounds like Jamaican people
@@trinabelle guyanese do NOT sound like Jamaicans! #1 no 2 creoles naturally sound alike. #2 no other people naturally sound like Jamaicans. This is CZcams! NEVER have Jamaican patwa n Guyanese Creole sound similar much less alike!
@@trinabelle being 🇯🇲🇬🇾, they do not sound alike.
@@Girlforaction yes, they do... To me they do
"Rae rae rae" is more akin to "etc" not "drama" because it can be used in different situations.
Ok that's what I thought. Us country folks be like woo woo woo 🤣
@@juxtaposebeauty247 haha I have heard (and used) tar tar tar but that one is angrier in my opinion
Exactly👆🏾
I’ve heard Rae tae tae as etc
I’ve heard Rae tae tae as etc
My favourite accent, bar none.
I find the variety of accents on the planet absolutely fascinating.
The woman in the gold coloured top has a gorgeous voice.
She should do voice overs, or talking books. Just lovely 😊
Except that they were talking something completely different from an accent. They were literally speaking mostly mesolectal Jamaican Patois (not deep patois). You can call it a dialect- something similar to a creole language. When the Jamaicans were speaking Standard English, that's the Jamaican accent. There is a difference between accent and dialect.
I think Jeffery has looked the same for several decades. He was in that Black and White music video. Dude is definitely a vampire.
As a Jamaican who left the country when I was very young, I think I did well! Most of them were pretty easy, but Gunter used some phrases that I’ve never heard any Jamaican speak, so I had to use context clues💀😭
Like they said, Mr Gunter had something personal. Those phrases were so specific lol
Same girl! Two of them got me!
The patois he speaks is what the old gen speaks, and is especially spoken among the elderly who reside in the countryside.
Yea it depend on what part u come from like the first lady was saying. As someone from Clarendon, I grew up hearing and understood everything that man said 😂😂😂😂
I did pretty well and I’m not Jamaican, but my daddy swore he was a Rasta growing up! All his music I listen to paying off! Been looking for a patois translation video like this forever! Cocoa Butta with that premium content again!
I was really expecting more "ay likkle dutty bwoy, GWAY" 😂 this was a little gingerly to watch.
U Jamaican
Lol never mind your trini 😂😂😂
Hayyy not “ay”and gweh! not “gway”😉.
😂😂😂
Oh, so the man on the thumbnail picture was real...
I was thinking the same thing!!!!!
Don’t kill me 🤣
This is extra funny because some of these are maybe the easiet phrases you're going to get and the rest is just us being super extra 😂😂 I love my ppl 🇯🇲🇯🇲
Love to all my Jamaican brothers and sisters! ❤ 🇯🇲
Please do Belizean Kriol next! 🇧🇿
I always find it amazing how close Belizean Kriol is to Nicaraguan creole where my family is from.
You sound the closest to Jamaicans
Yeassss!!!! Big up Belize!!!
🇧🇿 🇧🇿 🇧🇿 🇧🇿 🇧🇿
Ur creole is copy of jamaican patois. And its getting better as the year progress.
RHIANNA!!!? as she is bajan/Barbadian🤣🤣🤣🤣 im also bajan
I'm from Mississippi and the elders definitely had their own patois. I had to get grown to realize the english translation of their phrases. For instance "God almighty" was just gigh da mighty. But our patois is just written off as uneducated but in reality I feel like ppl of african descent speak in real time and we are not as concerned with how the words appear when written.
Yeeees my Mississippi grandma talks similarly. I was shook at how much I knew too!
Wow, that’s amazing! I learn something new about the Afro diaspora every day.
That southern patois is strong. My ex husband used to always have to translate for me 🥴😹😹
Sure did! My great granny is from Kentucky. It was definitely written off as uneducated, but it also wasn't easily understandable. I hate that the "speak proper" b****a**ness stripped a lot of us from that
Ayeee that's the brother from MJ's Black and White video ( I always remembered that goatee)! Also, it's so wonderful to learn the history of languages... we connected!
I wondered where I recognised him from!
Both my parents are from Jamaica, but I was born here in America and although I don't speak much Jamaican Patwah, I understood everything completely, growing up in a cultural home :)
FACTS! #ProudJAMERICAN 💪🏽🇯🇲🤎✨
Irrelevant to the video but i was excited to see Jeffrey Anderson gunter. He was in one of my most favorite Jamaican/action/voodoo movies of all time… “marked for death”!!! To this day I still praise that movie, because they had no demons, no special effects, no cgi, wasn’t intended to be scary, and yet it scared the HELL out of me as a kid 😂😂😂 I’m still scared of screwface to this day!
Side story/ I met/saw basil Wallace (screwface) in real life about a decade ago, and even though he didn’t look anything like his character from the movie in real life, I was so scared to introduce myself, because I kept thinking “oh my god, it’s screwface, he crazy frfr” 😂😂😂
Ohhhhh! I thought he looked familiar. The Raiden hat threw me off. Yessir, Marked for Death. He got his ass beat in the fragrance department.
I instantly recognized him from the Michael Jackson "Black or White" video 🤣🤣
I was wondering if anyone would notice him.
Just looked it up and he’s 75! He looks amazing!
I remember him. He’s been in nearly tv show I saw in the ‘90s.
@@RickyJ718 yesssss 😂😂😂😂 arm broke and all
Dis a di type a entatainment mi wah si.
This is the type of entertament I wanna see. 🇯🇲
Y'all need some 🇹🇹 content on here... Steeeups
This was a funny watch tho 😂
Where did that woman get her history of the Jamaican language from? Originated from the Chinese and indian language? The language was created by Black Jamaican enslaved people so the enslavers couldn't understand them when they planned uprisings. It was formulated long before Chinese and indians immigrated to Jamaica.
She meant Jamaican patois has contributions from the different people groups that have come to the island inclusive of the Indians , Chinese and and even German in certain parishes with a German population like seaford town in st Elizabeth
@@kareemismail8654 She said the language "ORIGINATED from...". Like I said no one Is in doubt that other groups of people have since immigrated to the country and been exposed to the language founded by once enslaved African-Jamaican ancestors but which contributions have the Chinese and Indians for e.g made to the language? Don't try to whitewash my history. I know those of Indian and Chinese heritage are not White but the anti Black sentiment of trying to erase factual Black history is.
@@az1infin268 i Thought i was the only one vexed and perplexed about that part! I was like "HUUUUH"?? "COME AGAIN MY GIRL"????
@@amandawilliams8708 I was disgusted and shocked Mandy Star, to think I was nyaming my food at the time, her disrespectful idiocy left a bitter taste... I mean, how did she just fabricate a whole origin story like that, especially when the actual origin has so much Black struggle, pain and ultimate victory attached. How disrespectful to the ancestors and all that they went through in creating the language. Cocoa butter should have fact checked her but I can see how they too would not have imagined she would come and make up something so ignorant and anti Black.
@Burp The European enslavers forcefully tried to strip the Black African people of their African identify and culture (knowledge especially of self is power). The European colonisers tried to violently forbid the African people from speaking their African languages etc, forcing them to only speak English and other European languages. The colonisers were stupidly mistaken though because the Black African people were so resourceful that they used it all to create their own language that the enslavers couldn't understand, so they could plan uprisings amongst themselves.
"overseers"? Bereft, barbarics you mean. Call them what they truly are.
As Kwame Ture says "Black Africans civilized Europeans" and the Black Jamaican language is a part of that, as it originated from Black people's resourcefulness in the fight for liberation against European Barbarism.
I learned a bunch in this video and was smiling while I did!
As ever, thanks for making it!
When the man started talking, I was lost🤣🤣🤣🤣I was like,'bro open your mouth and speak slower.'🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣reminded me of a sign language test where I felt like crying cause I didn't know what was going on
You guys did well! Proud of the Jamaicans participating!🙌
The Gunter dude was on point. I can’t wait to go home. I love it whenever I go over my Jamaican friend’s house so that I can talk patios.
Affi a chat propah more while mek mi dark and miserable.
Thats so annoying
I recently just went to Montego Bay and Kingston, and this gives me so much flashback I had no idea what the locals were saying I would just smile and pretend like I understood
Living in Jamaica and is from the Caribbean 🇬🇾 I just love this 😂 it’s also a chance for me to see how much I’ve learnt since living on the island. Cho is my fave word… that guy from Sainty is the best 😂
🇬🇾🇯🇲🇬🇾🇯🇲 best mix
Guyana is not the Caribbean.
@@slimthickaz. , it IS culturally Caribbean (not geographically) and also part of Caricom. You didn't learn that in primary school?!
@@jamdawgutube County in South America. The Caribbean is islands so no its not.
@@slimthickaz. , can you read or NOT? Did you not read that I said that the country is not GEOGRAPHICALLY located in the Caribbean, (BUT) it's CULTURALLY and HISTORICALLY Caribbean?! Guyana's history and culture more closely align with the other English-speaking Caribbean countries, not the other countries in South America. Guyana is the only English-speaking country in South America! That is why, for example, Guyana is a part of CARICOM (Caribbean Community). Guyanese can travel/move freely within the other CARICOM countries. Their passport has the CARICOM seal on it. If they decide to attend the University of the West Indies, their tuition would be subsidized because their government is a contributing country. They sit the same regional exams (the Caribbean Secondary Education Certificate and the Caribbean Advanced Proficiency Examination) as the other Caribbean nationals. It's the same thing with Belize- a country that is geographically located in Central America but is culturally considered a Caribbean/CARICOM country. Belize is also the only English-speaking country in Central America. You should be paying me for this lesson! Please do your research BEFORE you proffer another response!
THIS IS WONDERFUL!!! I was smiling the whole time 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
I’m first gen Haitian-American 🇭🇹 and grew up listening to 90’s dancehall and lovers rock. This is how I learned Jamaican patois. And it’s really second language to me at this point @ 32 years of age. The effort to translate is hilarious. Big up di yaadie dem still any weh yuh deh ina e world 💯
Big up yuh damn self! 🇯🇲
Y’all recognize him from the Michael Jackson black and white video?
Part two please!! This was awesome
Nuff respect Cocoa Butter!!! Definitely fulljoy dis 😊🇯🇲
10 years of watching Ras Kitchen has come in handy! I got them all right! Hey, Matty and Rasta Mokko!
I’m Haitian but most of my ex’s were Jamaican and I understand most of it. So proud of myself
I love being Jamaican, big up my country right tru ❤️
😂😂😂 I’m married to an American and I’m 100% Jamaican and now I understand. The FUNNIEST part is that the Jamaican actors patois NOT the strongest and they still can’t understand. Cho BUMBOCLATTTTT
Same thing I was thinking. But I think you wanted to say patois instead of accent.
@@jamdawgutube 😂😂 same way! #namal
Please make more of these! It's awesome to hear these phrases! I'm Haitian-American so we speak a creole language, but I've always loved trying to learn Patois (I'm really bad). Jeffrey was my favorite!
Hey you teach me I teach you
Can we talk about Jeffrey looking like a real life cat in the hat 😂
The second person was so hard and I was raised in a Jamaican household lol
I'd love to know more about the history of some of these words and phrases. Like which parts are from which countries and what's the difference between the other flavors of African based Patois.
A good resource on the history of Jamaican patois, is Miss Lou - she's passed now, but there's a bunch of videos on CZcams etc.
She used to be a children's educator/entertainer (amongst many other things) - she uses a lot of humour in her work, also, songs/nursery rhymes etc
For example, one of the main sources/influences for Jamaican patois is the African language "Twi".
Hope this is at least somewhat useful.
@@alpachinko9154 Miss Lou actually misattributed a lot of things to Twi. The only thing that comes to mind right now is when she said pinda is Twi when it's Kikongo. But I know there were other instances
Yes!!! I do believe that we are bilingual😁 "Kumujin" is translated to English as curmudgeon. We Jamaicans usually use the word to describe someone who is not genuine in their dealings and hypocritical. When he said the word means stingy, I was shocked. Variations of Patois I tell you! Love MI Patois bad!
Wow!! would love to see a part 2
As a Jamaican some of these phrases I’ve never heard of lol
What part are u from? That is most likely the reason lol
@@AckeeandSaltfish st James
Im not Jamaican, but I feel good I got a lot of them right! 😆
Now Ryan you know good well Rihanna isnt from Jamaica lol 🥴🥴 she is 🇧🇧🇧🇧
As a Caribbean person this was very entertaining... I cant speak it but I understood most of it lol 😂😂
😂😂 that second dude speaking patios from my grandmother days…… this new generation doesn’t speak like that no more
That's what I'm saying listening to him reminds me of my grandmother🤣
@@krissy172 😂😂 I haven’t heard anyone talk like that in a minute
Lmaoooo my mother told me to kibba my mouth just this morning 😂😂. Def an older gen thing and also more so how the country ppl dem talk
Not Jamaican but west Indian I understood everthing,, and laughed my ass off
Okay, the man from St. Elizabeth had me lost and I’m Jamaican 😂😂😂
Yea this is like ole time ppl talking. Also more countryside slang lol
Oh my. This was sooo funny. I'm from Old Harbour and I'm sending this to the whole family.
Gyal. Saint Catherine. Nice. From near Spain. Well, near Spanish Town.
I'm from Old Harbour too, Bowers to be exact
I really enjoyed this! My partial grasp of Cameroonian pidgin helped me understand a lot of them. I couldn’t get any of the last female.
It sound so beautiful. Loved all of it!
Rahtid! Mi luv dah video yah. I love this video, well done.
I’m not Jamaican but I got most of these💀 probably because I grew up around the culture when I was younger.
“Don’t go there, there’s a fire”🤣🤣🤣
Super fun to watch back after u know. Easy to hear after a listen or two.
As a Gullah Geechee, I did alright, I knew more than one would think🤣
That's because your ancestors are from Sierra Leone 🇸🇱 and our broken English language Krio is very similar to Jamaican Patois.
I’m Jamaican🇯🇲…and yes, even tho I twang a lot (heavy New York accent), I still speak my Patois. There are different dialects (how we speak Patois) based on where in Jamaica you come from.
That's the dude from the MJ Black or White video (at the very end when the people changed ethnicity)! :D
This channel is dope keep doing y’all thing 👊🏾💯!
This warmed my heart...🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
As a proud Jamaican, I am so happy watching this. Love mi patois, love mi island
A part 2 please ♥️ from 🇯🇲
I love this so much. Shoutout to UK rap artists, BBC Radio 1xtra, a whole host of bbc shows I’ve found on CZcams, and man like Akala for training my ear to AT LEAST recognize most of this…and also recognizing I know so little.
BIG up uno self Yardie. NUFF RESPECT and blessings.🙏🏾💚💛❤️
"Now she said minimum wage"💀😂 lmaooo
Potwah, it is pretty up to spell Patois....the Jamaican dialect is multifaceted and is different depends on the parts of the Island you ale from....
The man with the hat on, wasn’t he in the movie “Predator “ or wasn’t he in the movie with Steven Seagal “ mark for dead” and Michael Jackson’s video “ Black or White”?
We need more mo of this ❤❤❤
I think that gentleman is a model/actor from Michael Jackson's Black or White Video...I didn't know he was Jamaican
Yes that is him. I was scrolling looking for this comment lol.
ok as an American who has dated Jamaican men as well as has several Jamaican Co workers I understood some of them with no problem only bcuz they spoke slowly 🤣🤣 bcuz I've come across ppl who speak patois when they were upset and lord knows I didn't understand a single word
This was so fun to watch!!
This was good!! Idk there was different types of patois! And it makes sense that there are different versions of Jamaican patois based on region, but like AAVE! Also, p.s., why y’all ain’t tell Joyce her shirt was up!?
The first lady was like Intro to Patois, and then Jamaican Raiden is like ok now the SAT's 😂
You did NOT say Jamaican Raiden!!! 😭😭😭
Jeffrey Anderson- Gunter is such a legend! He looks so youthful & healthy!
Really want a part 2
This was great! Ooooo do Gullah from Charleston SC next!
“I don’t know who he’s talkin about but like bathe your child “ - 😭😭😭 this is hilarious as a person of Caribbean descent who understands more Caribbean dialect than I speak😭. I love black content like this where our different cultures can be shared.. everything is so much alike. Do some north NY vs dirty south dialect. That would be funny.
As a south asian from the UK I'm kinda proud I got 90% of those right lol. Big up J.A 💯
