    Thank you, this was really helpful. My husband is from Haiti so I'm trying to learn a little bit so I can talk to his family.

    This is super helpful. My parents are both native speakers of Creole and I used to speak it when I was little and lived in Haiti with my grandparents, but I stopped speaking it for so long I forgot how. I can still understand it for the most part but really want to get back to communicating with my family in our language! So thanks for these videos.

    Thank you for posting these videos I really enjoy them and they are helping me a lot I know French and indeed you are right that Haitian Creole is a language in itself!

    OMG Thank you! This is SO helpful. I've wanted to learn Creole for so long. When people see my name on my uniform they ask about the origin and, of course, their next question is "Do you speak creole?". Today this lady gave me a hard time after seeing the flag in my windshield and the name on my uniform. She tried starting a convo and I had to stop her. she said, "I'm American and I speak creole!". annnnnnd that led me here lolThank you! Thank you! Thank You!

    I found this to be very very helpful. I really like languages and I'm finding creel to be quite fascinating. I studied French before but I think that I find creole to be just a little bit more interesting. Keep up the good work homie.

    Thank you for this....My boyfriend has been trying to teach me for four years now but he is too deep in it to remember how to go to the basics. Now that I have a son that is half Haitian, I definitely want him to learn so I have to look for a better teacher lol.

    It's so frustrating that it seems impossible to slow down this language long enough to teach it 😔

    I always want to live in Haiti among the people so i can learn the real Kreole as it is a very expressive language if people only knew. I know because i learnt the language from co-workers years ago well enough to hold a little conversation but now i lost some as i don't use it any more. However, i am planing on going home to Jamaica and then to Haiti for a few months to be with the people this will give me a chance to practice every day. Good video by the way, i hope you will have a series of basic, intermediate and advance videos that would include conversational Kreyole, that would be super. Thanks so much.
