Big up yuself Jess. Thanks for bringing in Andre. His perspective was spot on! Keep practicing your Jamaican. Yu soon get it. Nuh watch nuh face needa!
This is the deepest discussion I have heard on the importance of why we should or should not speak patois/Jamaican versus the King’s English. Now more than before, I think Patois should be encouraged because it may be the only thing left that we can claim as our own as the politicians continue to sell out the country “while we stand aside and look… we got to fulfill the book.”
*Yes! This was a great video, & a great discussion about the language* *... BTW... The Jamaican language was recently added to Google Translate. So there you have it!* 👍🏽 👍🏽 👍🏽
Respect and manners Andre. Give thanks for taking the time to explaining the roots of Jamaica patios/ patwah to Jess. She is eager to learn. She is one of those front row student.
Love, love this video! Jess, I think you did pretty well. I agree-Jamaican can definitely stand alone as a language. I also agree with Andre 100% that when I am mad, my first thoughts are in Jamaican. I am an educator in the US, and there are so many times I get upset around students and end up blurting out something in Jamaican. The kids just look at me, totally confused, and then I have to take a deep breath and explain in a way they can understand. Thank you so much for this video-well done!!!
Hey what’s girl? What guant girl? Broken English is cool too! Because people who speak good English thinking them better than every body, but that not true, but when you can understand good English and broken English too you are very good. You can go every where matter what type English people speak yup gonna brilliant understanding and speaking too, in the Caribbean all British ex colonies has broken English, that happens in all Spanish countries in Latin America has broken Spanish or broken castellan sometimes hard to understand it, I’m enjoy your Jamaica speaking bless!
OMG. Jess is back😢 I shed a tear as I saw and trusted that feeling of you being the genuine person who you appear to be. We can see that you are truly a loyal person and do speak from the heat. I though oh yeah another good one has come and gone, but your still Herr. Keep doing the do and being the great person you are. As a Jamaican I know I speak on behalf of many other Jamaicans....thank you😊❤🎉
Saw this girl on TH-cam in JA before visiting JA. Big up di G fi promote the language and explaining the nuances in the pronunciation, Country mi fwd from... Lurks in a farin and neva lost my wey wen it comes to the JA language. Keeping Di culture alive. Big up da girl here weh name Jess.😮
Its Ok Jess to take a break, we are all humans we can't just keep go all the time! so recharge and take small break is good we not robots so remember that ..
Well put together n as a Jamaican living n NY, wherever I go n n around NYC n hear my language Patti's it puts a smile on my face. I'm employed by the City of NY been all over the five boroughs n when n wherever I c my people especially n the summer with the grills n jerk stands playing reggae music have to stop n give my support. There stands r always crowded with people trying to get a piece of little Jamaica.
19:39 is so true!! I live uptown and went to an uptown high school but I only speak patios in my day to day life. Last year I was speaking to an older gentleman on the way home from school and he asked what am I doing currently and I said I'm going to college and his reaction was "You go to college and speak like that" which was just shocking to hear in the year 2023 because you will almost never hear such thing from the younger generation. I realized the stigma towards patios is really only still a thing among the older generations of the middle and upper class (and this is island wide but it's most prevalent uptown) as no one judged you for how you speak at even most uptown schools these days. Even the white, Asian and Indian kids at school were speaking patios. Your patios is excellent btw you're like 95% there lol.
Maybe the older gentleman was saying this because If all you can speak is Jamaican patios, then one is limiting their communication skills only to other Jamaicans. Also, it significantly reduces the number of potential job opportunities available to you.
@@sjc3426 I speak English very well, just choose not to. Just like Jamaicans who choose not to speak patios but that doesn't mean they don't understand it or can't speak it as well. If you're born into a bilingual society 99% of the time you understand both languages and I've never came across a Jamaican who doesn't understand what I'm saying. People just choose to speak the language they're most comfortable speaking as their everyday language then code-switch whenever it's necessary, this goes for any multilingual society.
@ssthesupremegentleman5868 You are absolutely correct. I remember dating a fellow Jamaican, both of us from rural areas, but we met in kingston. He told me 1 thing he didn't like about me was that I talked bad. I explained that I'm in my comfortable space with him that's why my go to language is patois. But in other settings I speak standard English. Suffice it to say, I never felt the same about that person, always walking on egg shells around him, no longer felt like I was in a safe space. Relationship eventually fizzled out.
Jessica it's not easy as that .I love patois and all ,but at this point Jamaica needs all the tools that will enrich us .Patois is not doing it for Jamaicans./AM sure English is not Australia's official language yet; yall are cognizant of the incentive of speaking the English language. Please allow Jamaica to enjoy those sane benifits Sentiments doesn't bake the bread.One love👍
My wife was Filipino, passed 9years ago😢 she could cook Filipino food and she leaned from my mother how to cook Trinidad,food. What shocked me the most was when we went to visit my dad took her and my mother to the store and she knew all the trini fruits and everything else in the local terms than I 😢
VERY GOOD I AM JAMAICAN LIVING IN Amsterdam hOLLAND MY DAUGHTER VISITED WITH ME IN JAMAICA SHE ALSO WANTED TO LEARN JAMAICAN, AND DID, I AM VERY PROUD OF HER AND YOU. I SUFFERED IN JAMAICA FOR SPEAKING PATIO, WHICH I LOVED TO SPEAK, AND EVEN WRITE MY POEMS IN, SO NEVER MIND THE NEGATIVE COMMENTS, YOU DID JUSTICE/ TO THE JAMAICAN LANGUAGE, AND WE LOVE YOU PLEASE CONTINUE, I ALSO SPEAK SHANISH, FRENCH, DUTCH GERMAN AND DO WELL WITH MY DOWN ONDER AUSES FR[ENDS. YOU DID GREAT AND WE LOVE YOU SHINE ON HUGS. FROM AMSTERDAM HOLLAND INE LOVE FOR ALL ENJOY
🇯🇲🇯🇲 Jess Bless, nice to see you at your best. Oh gosh, I hope this is not a drill, not a test. You dropped out our sight after shining so bright. I really enjoyed your vids, you were a delight. When are you returning to Jamaica my dear? We really missed you beyond compare. This place is your home, adopted home. You’re welcome; love you to the bone.
I'm only half-way through the video but I'm loving the contribution of Mister Andre. My Brazilian friend learns patwa and watches his videos and learns a lot in order to practise with me. PARABÉNS ANDRÉ.
Hey Jess, welcome back 😊. As a Jamaican I would give you a 6/10 for speaking the language and a 8/10 for understanding or interpreting the language. That's not bad at all 😁🫶
Thank You. Persevere in learning to speak Jamaican. You are getting closer to your goal. One thing that I don't think has been mentioned is that Jamaicans often switch between speaking Jamaican and English, wherever in the world they happen to reside. Even the so-called uptown people speak Jamaican, some openly, and others when they think you are not listening. I am a Jamaican who has lived in England for decades. The Jamaican language is often my comfort blanket, particularly when I am angry. I have two sons who were born in England, and they love to speak Jamaican and were self-taught.
Pretty good. I am Jamaican who left @ 12 years old. You are doing better at communicating in Jamaica than I would if I had to do this in Jamaica. I can understand Jamaican, but speaking it fluently would be a bit harder. However, when I returned for 3 weeks, a few years ago I started to retain my fluency. So I think I would regain my fluency if I was immersed in society.
Good morning Jess I am now visiting Jamaica and you are right. This is a safe place. I was in Monte go bay Yesterday and it was lovely people were so friendly. I am falling in love with Jamaica and Jamaican people you are one of the reason I came to Jamaica thank you so much.🙏🇹🇭
I'm a born Jamaican and have never seriously considered this topic, but having listened to this conversation,I ido agree that we should legitimize the language and give it its respectability . Big up Jamaica and our language
This was a great conversation very important points about the Jamaican Language, I agree with everything that was said here. Bless up uself Jess,love from jamaica always.
Our colonial masters did an awesome job diminishing everything special about Jamaica, telling us our language was broken/bad English. It’s actually a very complex and special dialect. Hearing you trying to speak patois , though u did a decent job, makes me realize how special and difficult the language is to command. I agree Jamaican language should be an official thing. I grew up being told that speaking patois meant I was less, uneducated even poor. We have to eradicate that type of negative stereotypes around Jamaica culture and embrace our uniqueness. Miss u Jess. Come back 🇯🇲soon
So wonderful to see your beautiful smiling face again. I appreciate your love of Jamaica and it’s amazing people. I felt much the same when I first visited, and still do. It was so great to watch your journey through Jamaica. The mother in me worried about you, and felt very proud of you. Hoping you make it back soon ! ✌️💕🇨🇦
Well done. Your hard work paid off. It is good that you highlighted the situation, especially as the Jamaican language is recognised and often emulated throughout the world. Like every other country, our language ought to be celebrated as it is part of our culture and makes us unique. It would be great to see you in Jamaica sometime soon as you have pure love for our Island 🇯🇲 🏝 ❤
Big up yuh self Jess!!! I was just watching for the first time and I must say, you did well my girl. Yuh gwaan good stilll. Nuh watch nuh face. Don't let no one stop you for learning our dialec. Nuff respect everytime!!!! Jamaica to the flipping world!!!!!!!!
AAAHHH..SHES BACK!! Lol, I have been waiting since you said you will be back soon...your soon is LOOONNGG girl! Lol So glad to see back. Lol @ speaking the patwa (oops, sorry "Jamaican") It's funny as the Aussie accent is coming through in the Patwa. 😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤
Big up jess glad to see you back. It's been a while you have been missed❤ As for you patwa nearly there but needs more work but I love that you are trying to learn
Hi Jess we've missed you and I'm happy you're doing okay and taking the time to learn our native language your going to be back with us before we know it so take those lessons we will be here awaiting your return stay safe and be blessed❤❤❤❤🙏👋
Hey Jess !!!🥰😘 It’s so good to see you back. Missed you terribly, terribly, terribly !!! 😭😭😭 I’m Jamaican, and have been making the case for our language to be embraced for the beautiful means of communication that it is. The most resistance that I encounter is from the generation that is in their 60’s or older. As your guest said, “Old habits die hard”. But mi nah go mek dat discourage mi. Big up yuself, Jess. We love yu, bad❤️❤️🇯🇲
It's only Jamaicans who refer to broken English or improper English, etc., as the Jamaican language. Other countries would not refer to Patois as a bad language. Jamaican language is popular in the Caribbean and around the world.
That’s because Jamaicans for the most part are still living in colonial times mentally, they love the slave masters language,just as they love the colonial masters religion and way of life , the average Jamaican still waiting on the slave master Jesus to come save dem
You are at about the intermediate level with a VERY, VERY, VERY heavy accent. I understand and speak Patois but couldn't understand what you were saying half the time. But I applaud your effort. I am impressed that you were able to learn so much
It needs to be held in a higher regard for real. You have done justice, my dear. You're really contributing and I love it. Thanks for your respect. A synonym for nosey can be 'nof' like the same word for 'a lot', e.g a nof rien faal yestide ino/it rained a lot yesterday. Yu tuu nof! / you're so inquisitive or nosey. JESS! What would be interesting is if you learnt the Cassidy writing system of the Jamaican Language. Are you very familiar with it? Either way, thanks for the respect towards us and great video.
Hello Jesse, I haven't seen you since you left Jamaica for the UK. After watching your KK vlogs I noticed that you seem exhausted but it is nice to watch you again girl and you look well rested. Jamaica miss you much and your Jamaican tongue coming and could hear some of the ascent too 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
You did us proud sister, You are now Jamaican, Love from Jamaica 🇯🇲
That's so true. Growing up in Jamaica, I was taught to speak properly, but I was also encouraged to embrace our authentic Jamacian culture .
Big up yuself Jess. Thanks for bringing in Andre. His perspective was spot on! Keep practicing your Jamaican. Yu soon get it. Nuh watch nuh face needa!
