Deb&Luc April 9th to April 16th Grand pineapple
Exactly 3 weeks and counting!! So stoked! I made my reservations and got my flight 6 months ago. It's been a long...damn...six month!! :)
36 long days left until the party starts!!
Every time I see this I can't help but cringe just a little.Quote:
Mi Caan Believe Nuh April Roll Call...
"Mi nah caan believe" would be roughly translated as "I can not believe" and "Mi caan believe nuh" would be roughly translated as "I can believe no" I think that is exactly opposite of what you mean, right?
Just wondering if I was missing something. Some things just get lost in translation as they say.
Peace and Guidance
So, you've been "cringing" since November :rolleyes:
Actually, I have only seen it since returning from the winter in Accompong Town in mid-January but whenever it rises to the top.... yes!Quote:

How about you? Did you ever notice even without cringing?
Maybe you just have a higher threshold to the cringe point? Not a big deal because everyone seemed to know what it said.
I had a Jamaican friend looking over my shoulder when I first saw it and he busted out laughing. Me? I just cringed. Maybe at the sound of his laugh. Not too sure.
Not cringing anymore so, thank you for asking.
I would love to speak patwa and understand it better. What I don't understand is a few people on these boards that post in broken English like they are a Jamaican and having trouble with the English language.
I often read their posts and wonder what in the world are they trying to say. They type as if they are speaking patwa and almost every time they are American. As a matter of fact, when I talk with my Jamaican friend online they never talk like that.
Many of the posts are filled with commas and the return key is hit several times during the message usually making a very narrow and long message.
I have learned to pass over these posts without reading them and I just shake my head wondering what they are trying to prove.
I feel your pain [sigh},,,,, :rolleyes:Quote:

Almost everywhere I have traveled in the world, people like it when you at least try to speak their language even when you do a poor job of it but writing out a phonetic dialect like Patois is a little different. The majority of the attempts at patwa on this board are a poor example of the patwa that is written for instance on Facebook by the youth of Jamaica. Most of that is very difficult to figure out with all the colloquialisms and "short speak". On here it is like; "nuh" = no and "caan" = can etc. but the syntax of the sentence is rarely equivalent to the way a Jamaican speaks the same idea.
Does make you wonder what they are trying to prove, doesn't it?
Peace and Guidance
Exactly! Well said!
I speak and understand Patios fluently. I fact I've been asked by Jamaicans if I'm actually Jamaican who lived abroad for some time.......However I'm absolutely illiterate when it comes to trying to write the language. I don't even try.
Here's a passage from the Patios version of the New Testament which took years to translate.

Hi, Any shows scheduled April 3-17. I won't be staying in Negril therefore I can't see the signs, although I'll be heading to Negril a few times. Just want to know if any show dates/concerts are set yet? Thanks all.
Anyone know of any good boardie activities going on the last week of April?...besides the Woodstock Boardie Bash.....I would love to get in on a group excursion or something....sand gravity always kills our best intentions of venturing out of Negril, but maybe with a group nudge, we can break that habit...
One love bar crawl will happen that week once or twice.Drifters party on the 24th with a bunch of boardies,it is a great time with Luddy and Jan!!
nineteen more days - SOON COME
