  2. Haitian Creole translation for "audience" is asanble, kongragasyon, spektatè, piblik, moun, or foul moun.

    But the Haitian Creole word "odyans or lodyans" stands for comedy, entertainment, telling tales, to tell jokes, entertaining conversation

    Example:
    After dinner, the family had some entertaining conversations.
    Apre dine, fanmi an t'ap bay bon jan lodyans

  3. Correcting an error: It's kongregasyon, not "kongragasyon" :)
    Thanks.
