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.
