It's easy, I'm French of Greek origin and I've been speaking it since the age of 14 thanks to some friends.For me it was like a secret language that no one understood especially the parents when on the phone you were talking about a beautiful girl with your friends.Hang on it's a great language
@@yaniscaraisco2550 the Greek language is the one that helped Latin and the romance languages of today its vocabulary. Also, Greek is the one who helped Cyrillic letters as well. So, yeah that's not really shocking on the Greek side of things to get a romance language. Plus, Greek is also part of the Balkan family as well, the same family that Romanian(romance language) is part of that shares a lot with many others in that region
I love my people so much i'm going to learn Patois and own a house in Trini in the future and do something amazing for my people watch! I'm claiming it now
Emancipation Day 2023 and We still talk like this in Dominica and St. Lucia, everyday. Born in Dominica and I understand what they are saying. It's sad that it died in T&T.
@@lonalxaiaIt's technically dead among the majority of the population. Only a handful still speak it which is too small a number......We may use some of the words eg. Zaboca but having a full conversation is another story in itself.
This is not English. I've been speaking Haitian Creole (Kreyòl) since 2011 and I can understand everything. Some of it is a little more like French but generally it's just like Kreyòl.
I'm black 🇺🇸 Born & raised in Baltimore Maryland I love learning different accents & languages my goal study multiple languages as multilingual . Teach me 🇹🇹 Patois I'd like to get to know 🇹🇹 people better I love 🇹🇹 food & music I'd like to learn how to play steel drum. I 💗 🇹🇹 accent I never been to 🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹 in my life
My grandfather spoke it & never taught it to any of his children.....Then the younger generation gets blamed when it's the elders who refused to pass it on (not all but most of them)
@@remy32cam32NOT sure if Google translated your comment correctly.....But to answer your question many from the older generation NEVER tried to teach the younger generations so that's why this language is dying. My grandfather spoke it & never taught his children.
M’ap apwann patois trinidadisen de yon video sa ni de outube. Mwen ka understand like 20% of this from learning Spanish. Mwen se aprenn kreyòl ayisen also. :)
This made me a little sad because my 4 grand parents spoke it but speak it when they didn’t want us to know what they were talking about.. but the issue is that my parents generation didn’t learn it or was taught it.. the chain was broken
@@Guyver-971 -We still waiting to discover that African part of it. Creole is a french based language with a mix of many different syntax. Nearly 100% of the creole words are from old french from the 16/17 centuries, that why many french people from Europe don`t always understand creole for they stopped using those words long ago. For example : To Bark in creole is "Japper", in ancient french : Japper, in modern french : Aboyer. An egg shell in creole is "Zecale", In ancient french : Ecale, in modern french : Coquille To argue in creole is "Babiller", in ancient french : Babiller, In modern french : S`engueuler. A tie in creole is "Lavaliere", in ancient french : Lavaliere, in modern french :cravate. A curious woman in creole is "Maquerelle", in ancient french : Maquerelle, in modern french : curieuse. ...etc...etc...etc...I think i will have to write a book in order to destroy all of your bs.
@@armanddumont3959 What are you talking about ?For example, ''bonda'' is an african word which means ass in Guadeloupean Creole. From the word (N'BONDA). It was just a small example, kongolyo, banza, bèkèkè, awa, boukousou, gombo, yo, yé, sizé, kenbé, padjenbé, etc....... So please before speaking bullshit on a subject you don't know do you research instead thank you. Its my mother tongue language and i know what im talking about, Guadeloupean Creole is from french and africans languages. Not only french. You're ridiculous, pretty sure you're some white french weaboo
Belle causerie ! Ce créole est de base lexicale française, et assez proche des autres parlées dans les Caraïbes, mais en tant que locuteur francophone ne sachant aucun créole, je ne comprends que des bribes, entre 10 et 20 % de ce qui est dit.
Je parle le créole de Guadeloupe depuis 40 ans , merci mes potes de la cité et je peux te dire que cela ressemble plus à du martiniquais et je comprends tous trop marrant
What do you mean by a bad accent? These are native speakers of Trinidad French Creole !The "bad accent" you refer to is the "accent" of Trinidad French Creole. What do you consider a good Creole accent?
