I'm sleepy
I'm sleepy - dòmi nan je m
In the Haitian Creole expression 'dòmi nan je m' the object pronoun at the end of the sentence changes according to who is sleepy.
example:
i am sleepy - dòmi nan je m
she' sleepy - dòmi nan je l
we're sleepy - dòmi nan je n
you're sleepy - dòmi nan je w
they're sleepy - dòmi nan je yo
Another way to say 'I'm sleepy' is 'm gen dòmi'.

What is life about?
Asking questions with what.
Kisa lavi a ye? - what is life?
De kisa lavi a ye? - what is life about?
Kisa sa ye? - what is this?
De kisa sa ye? - What is this about?
