@deborahhenningham20763 ай бұрын
Some persons are saying that "hush" is a form of tough love. However, in the Jamaican language, "hush" is not tough love. In our language it's a comforting word. It expresses comfort, understanding and even concern. We often say "hush yah" or "hush mi dear heart". It's like saying "it's ok, don't worry about it, I understand how you feel", while rubbing someone's back to comfort them. In fact, if a baby falls and hurt his hand. He would go to the parent crying. The parent will comfort the child and say "hush mi dear heart" and kiss the baby's hand. So there's no negativity or tough love attached to the word "hush" in the Jamaican language. It has a totally different meaning from "hush" in America and other Caribbean countries. "Hush" for us is a word of endearment, comfort and support.

Bumbaclot is Jamaican slang equivalent to “douchebag” or “motherf@cker,” often used as an interjection to express disgust or dismay. It's also spelled bumboclaat or bomboclaat, among other spellings. It's an insulting vulgarity that literally refers to either menstrual pads or toilet paper. COPIED AND PASTED IN GOOGLE

Trouble deh deh is also sierra leonian krio for there’s trouble there. Also hush to comfort someone is the same in krio, “hush ya” but they don’t say the h as clearly.
Some persons are saying that "hush" is a form of tough love. However, in the Jamaican language, "hush" is not tough love. In our language it's a comforting word. It expresses comfort, understanding and even concern. We often say "hush yah" or "hush mi dear heart". It's like saying "it's ok, don't worry about it, I understand how you feel", while rubbing someone's back to comfort them. In fact, if a baby falls and hurt his hand. He would go to the parent crying. The parent will comfort the child and say "hush mi dear heart" and kiss the baby's hand. So there's no negativity or tough love attached to the word "hush" in the Jamaican language. It has a totally different meaning from "hush" in America and other Caribbean countries. "Hush" for us is a word of endearment, comfort and support.

"You dig" is so simple and so fascinating, history is learned by finding what's been lost to time, usually by DIGGING up the ground to understand is to learn, and to learn is to dig up what's lost the woman seems like such a sweet lady
I love being a white boy that grew up with Jamaican grandparents. My grandpa spoke the thickest patois I’ve ever heard. I can just instinctually understand any Jamaican person, meanwhile it seems like most people can’t 😂

Bumbaclot is Jamaican slang equivalent to “douchebag” or “motherf@cker,” often used as an interjection to express disgust or dismay. It's also spelled bumboclaat or bomboclaat, among other spellings. It's an insulting vulgarity that literally refers to either menstrual pads or toilet paper. COPIED AND PASTED IN GOOGLE

To the point 😂. Reminds me of the Dutch language!
Imagine a guy who’s got all his limbs and eyes intact but the Jamaican ladies call him “oney”.
Mawga sounds so similar to the swedish word for the same thing, "mager"! That's really interesting!
