Subscribed if for no other reason than your animated way of telling a story. The confusion on your face is genuine. Also, one of my Construction crews is comprised exclusively of Islanders. Some of the best men I know, and I want to be able to communicate and connect with them. Thanks for the education and the entertainment!

As a Vincentian who lived in TNT from the age of 5-9 and had to re-learn the language upon return, I can confirm that Vincentian dialect is a whole language on its own lol. I love you St.vincent home of the bless Edit: Never heard smally being used gotta look that up

There was a skit of a Nigerian landing in St Vincent. But I can’t find it cause I don’t remember the name. Can help me out please.
Yes Guerra. Courage and Courtesy. How long you been here? I started in December. Well done.

It’s hard to read it but easy to tlk 😂
I only know “as gard” as being used to agree with someone else and I’ve never heard “how” used in that way. That’s not to discredit what is being said here but being a Creole means the Vincentian speech varies depending on locality and education so even Vincentians will not know or use every word or phrase.

I think in that context how was used for "How yuh mean" which could translate to "That's obvious"

Smally is a Trini slang....most of the slangs are trini slangs that vincies brought back while living/working/visiting in Trinidad from the 1940s up to present day. most Caribbean slangs used by the islands are either Trini or Yardy...they are the most influential Caribbean countries.

@@listenup2882No one is talking about french dialect 🙄. The English slangs y'all use are mainly trini or yardy...I know for a fact that Lucians say 'Irie', 'Big Up', 'Mudacunt', 'Allyuh'....those are used by every English speaking Island and they are trini & yardy slangs.

SayS who? every islands may borrow a few words here and there but every one has theIr own unique dialect... so get over yourselves... you think we were dumb until you teach us how to talk? What were saying before the 1940s? "bunga bunga" and 👉 point! Then Jamaica and Trinidad taught us how to talk,,,! 😆 🤣 😂
