I've been waiting for a dominican creole video!!!!!!!! Because dominican parents don't teach their kids their language 🙄. What is his channel? I've been learning Haitian creole because my wife. But i want to learn my people dem creole.
It’s interesting listening to Justin experience about learning the Kweyol. I can identify with much of his experience coming from a Kweyol speaking home myself but only manage to pick up the language later in my teenage years from my contact with our Haitian migrants. I do a lot of business with them ,as our tenants, and had no choice but to learn how to communicate with them. Today I speak and write the language fluently. Never too late to learn!
Yes we do that too. It’s because both islands became English colonies and lost the constant influence of the French language. So people in gwada and mada and ayiti will roll their R’s like the French we replaced it with “W”
Interesting fact; the older generation in GRENADA, and TRINIDAD, some parts, can speak kweyol, also. One of my neighbours, originally from Grenada but grew up in Trinidad, would speak try to speak to me in kweyol. 🇨🇼🇩🇲🇨🇦
Wait be careful. The Ka is for present tense. When there is no "ka" it is past tense. But it depends on if the verb is static or not. Some verbs never have "ka" like " to love" or " to need"
I have to disagree…when there is no “ka” it can’t automatically be past tense. Mon manjé is “I eat” However based on context if someone asked me “es ou té manjé” and I reply “wi mon manjé” then I’m implying it’s past tense. I think it’s contextual, but I hear you’re point
For Mwen, we say Mwen but we use "ma" for "I". As in "ma pas ca fete sa". "I'm not doing that" . I made an observation that peaks my curiosity as to it's derivative or origin or the "mwen" because in Ghana we are known to have ties to the Ewe and Akan people as well and they say "men ye" to mean "I am". that said they pronounce it "mwen ye". I believe our creole has a mixture of so many different African groups but it becomes obvious which words we got from which tribes or groups of people since often they are the only ones using the words and the words have the same exact meaning. And btw the Dominican brother used the exact same words that we use in creole. Great vid people.
Poukisa ou ékri y "fete" konsa? paske typikman moun ka di " fè " , pa ni pyès "t" Moun sint licie ka tojou fè mwen travay lè an ka li paske zot ka éckri tèlman différan lol

Nou la wi ❤️
Blessings to you to fam
@@CharisMaggieTV yes sistah
Im loving this thank you Maggie. Im a Haitian brother , and i love the similarities between Dominican and Haitian Kreyol .
Appreciate you for watching brother ❤️
@@CharisMaggieTV my pleasure sis
Justin you did a great job explaining Dominican Kweyol. I like that you highlighted the regional variation in the language.
If he’s reopening his lessons I’d love to learn 💚
Li pa telman different creole Haiti. M'ap kompren preske tout. -From your Austrian Haitian 😅
Lol when I tell you the similarities make me so happy. Despite the slight differences, I know I’d be able to understand it well 😊
I wonder if Dominicans replaced the "R"s in their words with "W"s like St Lucians 🤔.
They do 😊. See the follow up video that compares Haitian Kreyol and Dominican Kweyol
@@CharisMaggieTV very interesting I wonder why the "R"s got replaced. I think Trinis replaced "R" with "W" aswell.
Yes we do that too. It’s because both islands became English colonies and lost the constant influence of the French language.
So people in gwada and mada and ayiti will roll their R’s like the French we replaced it with “W”
In the south part of Dominica, yes.
Interesting fact; the older generation in GRENADA, and TRINIDAD, some parts, can speak kweyol, also.

Omg that link to Ghana that you provided is “chefs kiss”
I can’t wait to explore more African languages to make the link even more 😊
@@CharisMaggieTV thank u for these conversations and subject matter.
Which country creole are you referring to?
Poukisa ou ékri y "fete" konsa? paske typikman moun ka di " fè " , pa ni pyès "t"
Moun sint licie ka tojou fè mwen travay lè an ka li paske zot ka éckri tèlman différan lol
@@JJROBLDN I missed this message. I’m Saint Lucian. The creole we speak is most similar to Dominicas 🇩🇲 but it’s spoken by some Trinidadians.
Dominica exchanged hands between British and French roughly at least 3 times, I think.
You need to do one in Papiamentu (Spanish Portugese kreole.)
Happy to do it if someone who speaks it wants to come on to talk to me about it 😊
@@CharisMaggieTV I can. Buh Ama no have the proper connection fuh TH-cam. I Still enjoy your video's this one device tha I have,
I Thought It Was Cape Verdean Spanish Dutch Kriolu😂😅🤣
