- Dive into the unique differences between Haitian Creole and French. Discover if Creole is merely fragmented French, and whether Creole speakers comprehend French. Interestingly, the French 'La crème' translates to 'krèm' in Haitian Creole! #CreoleVsFrench #HaitianCreoleVsFrench #LanguageDifferences
That awkward handshake though😂😂😂
Because French guy tried to shake with his left hand, it’s an insult. If you couldn’t tell by his facial expressions he was looking down on the creole language. Things aren’t always as they seem.
Cream
The French aren't used to agreeing with people.
@@turtle4llamathey have no choice in this situation
In deed, 👍
Pye bwa makes sense. Pyé in the sense that it’s the roots. Bwa means wood. Wood comes from trees
My brain goes, "Feet drink=Tree."
Root wood ?lol
Yeah except pyé (pied) in French means “foot”, so it’s saying tree foot. Root in French is Racine. Makes sense tho yeah
I’m mainly English but speak creole and understood when he pointed at his feet that it had to do something wit the roots of the tree
@@JS-ef1rpdrink? You know bois means woods rights
My husband is from Côte D'Ivoire so his first language is French . He can understand a lot of Haitian Creole . Some of his Haitian friends also speak French as well.
🇨🇮🇨🇮❤
Tire as kaouchout makes sense, it's like the french word for rubber (caoutchouc)
... and close to "caucho" in Spanish too 😌
Its doesn’t make sense
@@RBZ06LT6It‘s doesn‘t….
@@RBZ06LT6it does, in the past tires were made of couchouc
In Romania we say ,,cauciuc" 😅
In St Lucian creole we use the same words for tree, house as the haitians do. Very similar.
In Dominica too
Dont y'all speak English in St Lucia ?
@@reyex9545 Yes we speak English and we also speak St Lucian creole (French base).
@@kidscanreadtv6821didn't know that, I thought you speak English based...
@@BG-it7hb St Lucia was also a French colony during a few intervals in our vast history. Therefore, our culture and language reflect that.

Moral of the story, language evolves just like everything else!
Not exactly. You have the language, then you have the language of the slaves. The different dialects stem from how good or poorly the slaves were treated by the rulers. It’s tragic, not evolution
@@espectrodelayautja6320 Not necessarily, there are Haitian creole words that are directly derived from Beninese Fon.
You didn't evolve from a Monkey.
@@davidtilley6016 From Apes to Modern Apes*
@@espectrodelayautja6320No language did not evolve from slave. President day individuals decided to create the language called Creole.
Glad someone did this combo. Nice
love the centuries of African-isms and blending of cultures that create Haitian Creole. not to mention distance from France
It’s actually a mix of French, African, (Native) Taino, and Spanish
That was fun. I could watch a half hour of this.
Creole sounds so beautiful. It’s such a lively language & rhythmic.
Wild n out brought me here
You're right Creoles idioms are globalized and livers idioms very practical, artistic and logical, fast communication and simplifieds.❤❤❤❤
In brazilian portuguese, we say "pé de manga" to refers mango tree, although the word "pé" has same meaning the word "foot".
Pneus is also the same. Caucho it's the tree rubber comes from also.
Interesting....in Haïtian Creole we say "Pye Mango" for mango tree.
And the word Bounda or Bouda in Haitian creole as the same pronouciation as the word Bunda in Brazilian Portuguese, and they have the same meaning too😍
@@Flower_005 amazing.
@@Flower_005Bunda is from Africa, Angola.
@@JessJayEelThank you, i didn't know that, I just know Brazilians use it. And I don't know how it arrived in Haiti but that word is in our Creole since Slavery. We have ancestors from west Africa for sure, but Angola is located in southern Africa... The Portuguese Colonizers tried to colonize us as well along with Brazil, they stayed in Haiti for a few times, that's why we have a few Portuguese words in our Creole, i'm wondering if they brought that one word here from Angola during slavery
Kaothcou (Cauchu/Caochu) comes from the term for rubber derived from trees, which is what tires were originally made from.
Fun fact: Some Hispanic countries call tires as "Cauchos", specially the ones in the Caribbean
@@ALEX-fq7hh
Yes. And I also used to work for a Spanish jewelry company whose latex/rubber components were referred to as”cauchu”.
Logical paradict makes strong sense. Cauchu, caucho, Kaotchou=rubber=borracha= the prime material for production of pneus.
Thank you, learned something new 😊.
In French we can say air conditionné. The word caoutchouc also exists !
“La clim” sounds so weird xD, mexicans call it “clima” which can be translated as “weather”. It reminds me of that awkwardness
@@danielherbas4422 In French, you can say air conditionné, climatisation, climatiseur or la clim as a diminutive.
The term clim comes from climat, a synonym for climate or weather in English, as the device allows you to change the climate conditions in your environment. I find the word very well chosen in the French language. :)
Thats the part I got a conflict with, it doesnt change the weather, it adjusts the room temperature, the weather is the same xD, I sort of understand the point but it doesnt add up (at least to me).
La clim’ is short for la climatisation, hence the feminine noun ;) Otherwise, we’d say le clim’ (for le climat).
@@danielherbas4422 The correct word is la climatisation and not la clim
🇫🇷👌🏻
Ikhaya is the word for house in Nguni South African languages, so probably was preserved from African heritage of the Haitians .
There is multiple different way to speak creole, I'm from the Réunion island and it's pretty different, but I love hearing the difference 🤩🤩
Pyé bwa is very similar to pied d'bois / pyé d'bwa in Reunionese créole. Same for krèm. But yes, it's interesting to see the differences as well as the similarities..
Mi sorte la Réunion aussi 😊🇷🇪
@@audreyhuet6347 la réunion lé la 🇷🇪😊
Assiette, that’s interesting. It’s the same word in Norwegian
What? It's tallerken.
@@joshuataylor3550 that too, but “asjett” is also a common word for it. At least in Trøndelag
@@MrKennyBones Is it because you had a French dude that Napoleon sent to your place to be your king or something?
@@ChimChimChums Might be, I dunno. Seems like French culinary customs inspired Norwegian language. Have no idea why it’s not found in Swedish or Danish
French was the language of the European élite in the 17th and 18th centuries. Even Friedrich the Great, king of Prussia, only spoke german to his horses. Otherwise he spoke french. So many french words were introduced in all the European languages at that time.
There's an expression in Brazil "pé de madeira" which literally means foot of wood, dunno if there's any connection to pye bwa lol
Yes literally pé de madeira/pé de árvore/pé de pau, is the true translation of pye bwa , in spanish pez de madera.
I actually found Creole to be more logical. My ❤ goes to Creole
You're Right 👍▶️ if you wanna logic science, tourism, business learn Creole, in this case Haitian Caribbean.
But if you looking for arts entertainment ,shows,games,music, fun, love, poetry learn French, french is highly artisitical and tricky and ilogic too.
🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻
They need to compare creole to french canadian... i understood the haitian easier than the frenchman
Mwen renmen lang kreyòl la anpil😊
Me too!
I'm Haïtien😅 where are you from ?
Haitian done already graduated from being a Creole. It needs to be classified as language ASAP.
@@momo-cchi5978 A language ASAP? what does that mean ?
@@Slap-Animation10 classified as a language as soon as possible
Love this!
What makes the french guy think that his words sound good, but the other guy's words don't?
Hes just trying to figure them out because they just sound strange to french speaker. Good example is the foot wood or instead using french word for tire the creole word refers to the rubber as in material the tires are made from, but the french word for them would be newer than creole root words from french
It's like English spoken in the UK vs USA. For example UK calls it 'biscuits', USA calls it cookies. In USA, a biscuit is the round bread usually served for breakfast.
Kaoutchou очень похоже на каучук по звучанию, думаю сразу понятно😂😂а вот pneu я бы никогда не поняла)
pneu от pneumatique, пневматический
Kaoutchu actually makes a lot of sense. Its like Caucho, the msterial they are made of. Thats how its called in spanish
Pneu is made of caoutchouc in French too
French and Haitian Creole sound like completely separate languages. FIU in Miami has an entire department dedicated to Haitian studies 😅
Well of course it's Miami lol
@@jeffrey-Epstein00 tf is your username
They are separated idioms sure and related, 75% to 80% of haitian creole vocab comes from french and the others 20 or 25 comes from many idioms.
Creole is globalized idiom, that projects you to many diferentes idioms and diverses linguiatics tree, 🌴🌲🌴🌴🦎🦎🌴💚💚💚💚 fascinating idioms.
La clim est une abréviation de climatisation, on dit aussi air conditionné en français.
In Romania, we say cauciuc for tire- similar pronounciation + a c at the end.
Seychelles Creole

Ay! I love Seychelles, their Creole and Saint Lucian Creole are very close to our Haïtian Creole
The French fellow looks very French
Nah he look Arabic
@@firespot2009exactly 😂
If he was born and raised in France he is French regardless of his skin color or appearance, not everyone has to be white to be French
He definitely looks maghrebi, but this is about languages. Can a Mexican not teach the Spanish language if he's not ethnically Spanish?
@@yotest3697Lingustically perhaps, sometimes even culturally. But there are many levels to the concept of nationality.
I love how many languages are similar! Pye is pie for foot in Spanish. Love learning!!
I love the healthy good vibes they radiate. Like Vitamin C for the mind❤
Good vibes discibed like that are ob of the most spot on descriptions I ever heard
That arab guy is no good vibes
He is a wolf playing along with the sheep
Nicccee, need more of this 🇭🇹
The last funny bit teach us, it’s not the mistake that matters, but how you react when you make one 👏
Air conditioner is Klimatisè
Wr say both though
This was fun who are these gentlemen
Nice lessons 👌
Kauçuk is rubber (in Turkish), pretty reasonable for naming a tire :) we call it lastik (a gimmick on plastic)..
lastik means a rubber eraser - the one kids use in school - in russian
Lastic is gimmick of Elastic not Plastic 😂
Lastik is the origin of elastik one property of rubber, makes sense🎉❤
Haitian Creole also has elastik, which means rubber band. I dated a Turkish man, and he heard me say vagabond once in reference to someone else, and he told me it's a Turkish word as well. And we Turks also say, "pardon." I tried to learn Turkish, but it was too hard for me. I understand it more. Iyi geceler
Funny. In Brazilian Portuguese it's the same. "Pé de pau" (literally foot of wood).
I love Haiti 🇭🇹
Me too 🇭🇹
I’m interested in the etymology of the French and creole dialect differences and the root words.
There is as many french creole as there was so many french colonies. I speak Réunion Island creole, there is Mauritius creole, Haitian crole, Seychelle creole etc etc...
need a part 2!!!!
The handshake was 🌹❤🙏🙏🙏
mwen renmen video ou
Quelle vidéo intéressant !
More please!
The wood foot makes sense if the trees around you are really big.
Many Creole French languages are based in Colonial, pre-Revolution French language. It's an older version, which does not include any of the newer Post Revolution adjustments, of which their were quite a few. Pretty much turned it into a whole other language over time.
Compare Quebec French, to France French today. And 🇨🇦 has several other little pockets of French speakers throughout our country, coast to coast.
Gotta say that I love the sound of the Creole. 😊🧓🏽✌🏽🇨🇦
In some places in Brasil we call a tree by " pé de pau" which has the same meaning from the haitian word for tree. It's our black heritage
In Portuguese, a fruit tree is also called pé. So an apple tree is pé de maçã (literally foot of apple).
❤❤Some similar but some different❤❤Sometimes I look the similar between Creole and French is like Mường language and Vietnamese language
Intereting. A foot of something is what we call a bush or small tree in brazilian portuguese. Like a foot of lime is a way of saying lime tree, a foot of passionfruit is a passionfruit vine, and so on. Don't know where that came from.
All I learned (and that I can remember) working in Fla with Haitian coworkers is Papa Caca! And Masisi!😂

@@anakaona6348saw te konpran'n😂😂😂
Le créole est une langue liée au français et à l'espagnol, ce qui signifie qu'il y a un côté français et un côté espagnol.
Aussi portugais. Pour être plus précis on peut le considérer comme une langue latinobéninoise
Le créole n'est pas une langue mais plutôt un dialecte basé sur la langue française, c'est pourquoi plus de 90 % de son vocabulaire provient directement du français. Bref, le créole est un français très mal parlé.
@@mahamluky pas mal parlé ,plutot differentment parlé
@@mahamlukydialecte? Mais il est sur google traduction ?
@@sterlinepierre6589 Mais qui vous a dit que les dialectes ne pouvaient pas être trouvés sur Google Translate ?
Dialecte est simplement un terme utilisé pour désigner des variantes d'une langue ou une langue dérivée d'une autre langue, comme le créole, qui linguistiquement parlant est un dialecte de la langue française et dont plus de 90 % du vocabulaire créole provient directement du français.

Oh shit, I never thought Créole Français would be this different yet recognizable
I don't like the way speak creole guys 😅
We say "kreyòl pi fasil" easy way right😅
Cauciuc In Romania!😂
Fun fact..for tire in Romanian we have pneu and cauciuc (pronounced like the creol spelled differently)
There are several things can be made from "cauciuc", but used for tire often . "Pneu" is tire specifically
Which one French?
They have flags next to them indicating the country they each are representing. What, You don't know your flags?
Both beautiful languages
Some of these are slang. Like la clim. In french it's actually air conditionné.
Pum pum: "Gyal dem ting" :):)
I speak mauritian creole and french😊
As a Romanian we say tire the same
Kay sounds closer to the italian and spanish 'casa', so maybe kay is closer to the original and maison is new, or a synonym that took off
J ss un haïtien
Bon bagay 🎉
I would love to see several different creole types, like Louisiana and other places
Caribbean islands and islands in the Indian ocean speak different creoles as well.
@@Flinabin , Exactly. It would be interesting to see the different French base creole languages differ and similarities
How do they say "La Clim" for "Le Climatiseur?"
"The foot of the tree"... more descriptive than wordy.
Well tires are made of rubber....makes sense
So in countryside we say " kawoutyou" too, lol, I'm from Bainet 🇭🇹 😅
How they understand foot in spanish! I saw it!
That's interesting he tried to shake with his left hand.
Its different kinds of Patio...im from Louisiana and we call ourselves Louisiana creoles (black ) and Cajun( white) and we speak a broken dialect of African..French..Spanish ..Native American Indian and English mashed together bc of our Louisiana heritage 💜💛💚⚜️⚜️⚜️
In Portuguese tree is árvore;
But for star fruit tree it’s pé (foot) de carambola.
We have that fruit in Haiti too, we call it "Pye Carambola" and mango tree is "Pye Mango"
In Feench we also say air conditionné.
"Friz" c'est la bonne réponse pour Air conditioner ou "Klimatizè"... 🙌🏽🇭🇹
Makes sense since Haiti is surrounded by Spanish and English speaking countries
The Spanish, English, and Portuguese words in our Creole are not because we are surrounded by Spanish and English speaking countries, it's because we were colonized by all of them, not just France. The first country to colonize Haiti was Spain, and then England, Portugal, France, they all were all litetaly fighting to own Haiti, they all colonized us for a while, but Only France and Spain stayed, they separated the island in two, France took the west part (Haiti) Spain took the east part (Dominican republic). And after our indépendance USA occupied us for a while too.
The handshake 😂😂😂😂 was definitely different in creole and French 😂

Yes, during the colonial era slaves were brought from different parts of Africa and had to learn to speak to each other and also learn the language of which European power controlled whatever island they were on. A few African words in Jamaican Patois as well.
