All those words and expressions are identical to Haitian creole. In the past Haiti had assisted alot of countries throughout the Caribbean and south America after its independence. I'm happy to see the presence of creole throughout the the Caribbean in different forms. To me I feel that Creole is a symbol of victory over the colonists and i feel strongly that all caribbean islands should adopt it to unify us as brother Caribbeaners.
This was an excellent interview. ..quite informative. ..which allowed me to better understand the colloquiism in Trinidad. ...also helped me to understand why I have always been fascinated with French. .....
I've heard some trini patois it seems to be identical to martinican créole, the speakers from that région St. Lucia, Dominique, Martinique ,Guadeloupe etc. went there to work or live? Its just eerie
Thank you very much for your Patois videos. My father grew up with his grandparents in La Lune and spoke the language with them. He has retained some of it, but didn't pass it on to me. It is good to hear it spoken by the people in your videos.
This lady is awesome..
Come to Martinique and you'll be surprised how fast everything is going to fall right in place.

Several Trinis confessed that they have Martiniquan roots so hence the similarities.
