Interested in knowing how much of these two videos can you pick up on and understand?

I hear and understand it 100%. Sounds like Haitian Kreyol with occasional French words.

Antillean Creole and Haitian Creole pretty much the same. From what I know, it's like a Cuban and a Paraguayan speaking Spanish. There's are some words and phrases that are different but the language is still 98*% the same.

Its amazing how black people came up with our language all over the diaspora and the US

I can't keep up with other forms of "creole" -- they definitely got their own shyt going on.

Also - Haitians in the North have a different way of speaking from Haitians in the South & The West.

Its crazy.

Happy cause I use to always hear that st Lucian’s like to hide their creole sometimes in favor of English

Yea someone told me my mom speaks different cause she from Cap haitienne

As they SHOULD!!!
That’s wisdom and power right there by making their creole the first language. It will instill more pride, self worth and identity in the next generations.

Creole languages are not lesser than imposed colonizer languages.

Salute to St. Lucia for doin the right thing for their future on an institutional level

During the reign of King Henri Christophe - Haiti was allies with the United Kingdom.

English was an official language in the kingdom.... the English influence created a new form of "creole" among Northern Haitians

That should be a new thread. Get a few Antillean Creole videos and see what words you don't understand from what country.
