Yereswa or yè swalast night
epa or apa → no equivalent English translation. It comes off as an acknowledgement.

There it is.

I see you didn't call me last night.
Or even:
How come you didn't call me last night.

Epa Kreyòl nou t'ap pale?
Weren't we speaking Creole?

I see you 're not eating.
or even:
How come you're not eating.
