  2. The Creole spelling may not have been captured well.
    Perhaps you mean:
    Se li sèl moun mwen konfye ladan.
    He/she's the only one in whom I trust.

  4. "lasi" in Creole is actually "wax", "candle wax", or "eye booger".

    Is it possible that the Creole is miswritten? Let me know :)

  5. Or... Unless it was written as such:

    "La, si li sèl moun mmwen konfye ladan..."
    There, if he/she the only one in whom I trust..."

  6. it was written as lasi li sèl moun mmwen konfye adan and not by a native so hence most likely miswritten! Thanks so much .
