why would you say that TO WIN is GENYEN in crole. I thought GENYEN (or is it GEN?)was the verb TO HAVE?

Genyen generally means to have, to win, to own, to possess, etc...

Genyen is from the French gagner which means to win, to earn,

Gen is a contracted form of Genyen.
 It should remind you of the English word 'gain' which also means to win, to earn...
