li gentan monte
li is haitian Creole for he/she/it. So, Li gentan monte means:
what does lasi li sel moun mmwen konfyeadan mean
ReplyDeleteThe Creole spelling may not have been captured well.
ReplyDeletePerhaps you mean:
Se li sèl moun mwen konfye ladan.
He/she's the only one in whom I trust.
but what does lasi mean?
ReplyDelete"lasi" in Creole is actually "wax", "candle wax", or "eye booger".
ReplyDeleteIs it possible that the Creole is miswritten? Let me know :)
Or... Unless it was written as such:
ReplyDelete"La, si li sèl moun mmwen konfye ladan..."
There, if he/she the only one in whom I trust..."
it was written as lasi li sèl moun mmwen konfye adan and not by a native so hence most likely miswritten! Thanks so much .
ReplyDeleteDakò.
