Rechinya (also known as reshiya, reshiyè) → crybaby, wimp, wuss

Li se yon ti rechiya.
Li se yon ti rechiyè.
He's a little cry baby.

L'ap fè rechiya.
He's being a crybaby.


And the verb "whine" is "rechinye", right? So, there's no verb "rechinye"? As in "sispann rechinye konsa!"

Wait! According to what you wrote above, "rechinye" is not a verb.
It looks like "l ap fè rechinye" is right, "l ap rechinye" is wrong. Amwe!

LOL :) Ou komik anpil!
RECHINYA can be a noun.
Use it in:
Li se yon ti rechinya.
He's a little crybaby.

Poukisa ou rechinya konsa?
Why are you such a wimp? (It's still a noun here :)

FÈ RECHINYA is the verb
Use it in:
Pa FÈ RECHINYA non!
Don't WIMP OUT!
Don't BE A CRYBABY!
Dakò?

Yes, actually, some people do use "rechiyen" as a verb, "rechinyè" as a noun.
Sometimes it's even referred to as an attribute.  Ex:  "Ala timoun rechinyè / rechinya papa!"

"Sispann rechiyen!"
or
"Sa w genyen w'ap rechiyen konsa?"
