@@blakmoto8338actually ‘batty’ just means arse/buttocks.. That’s why the word ‘battyriders’ is used for very short shorts (coz they ride up your arse).. The word for gay is ‘battyman’ (meaning arse-man, or in other words, a man who likes arses 😅) .. the word ‘batty’ on its own just means ‘arse’..
That one is an historically funny way to describe short shorts. "Pum Pum shorts" is there to describe short shorts, so "Batty shorts" had to be towards men in such shorts, looking like Batty Boy.😂
Yh Jamaicans have a tendency to call you base on how you look, talk, behave or whatever you sell if you're a merchandiser for example, you drinks we'll call you juicy, you're always upset we'll call you hot head and if you're dark skin your name would be blackka or blacks😂
Why you acting like slang doesn't change over time, just like how saying killy is a recent ting. Older folks probably used that slang. Doesn't mean it isn't jamaican
@@MrJamChin I don’t think they were saying it’s not true just that they haven’t heard it. I thought the same thing and chalked it up to her being older. As you said, slang changes over time.

Exactly. I’m American born, family is from Jamaica. Is very hard to explain that I can’t “speak” Patois because it’s more putting on an accent with some lingo. I can’t do the tone but I understand it completely.

Some persons are saying that "hush" is a form of tough love. However, in the Jamaican language, "hush" is not tough love. In our language it's a comforting word. It expresses comfort, understanding and even concern. We often say "hush yah" or "hush mi dear heart". It's like saying "it's ok, don't worry about it, I understand how you feel", while rubbing someone's back to comfort them. In fact, if a baby falls and hurt his hand. He would go to the parent crying. The parent will comfort the child and say "hush mi dear heart" and kiss the baby's hand. So there's no negativity or tough love attached to the word "hush" in the Jamaican language. It has a totally different meaning from "hush" in America and other Caribbean countries. "Hush" for us is a word of endearment, comfort and support.
