How do you say beautiful soul?
literal translation - bèl nanm
Haitian Creole expression - bote enteryè
When you translate beautiful soul literally in Haitian Creole, it does not hold the same meaning as in English... at least not with the same impact.
Haitian Creole expression - bote enteryè
When you translate beautiful soul literally in Haitian Creole, it does not hold the same meaning as in English... at least not with the same impact.
bote enteryè, which literally means 'inside beauty', translates that expression best.

Yes. you're right. It's like the french 'r'. Slightly guttural.
Check out the audio clips in Lesson 1 and 3.

Learn the language grammar.
Browse your Haitian Creole dictionary every day.
Write 15 short stories for Haitian children in Haiti. Make a booklet out of it. Illustrate it if you can. Make two copies. Keep one and send one to Haiti via a missionary.
And, commit to writing one sentence per day in your Haitian Creole diary :)

first quarter - premye mitan
second quarter - dezyèm mitan
third - twazyèm...
(that is if we're talking about a game like soccer)
Ok. first place, second place, third place, fourth place.......
first place - premye plas
second place - dezyèm plas
third place - twazyèm plas

how do you say: what's new, brother? (not necessarily talking to a brother)
(Haitian Creole word for brother is frè. You may use it to mean family or a good friend. It carries the same meaning as in the English language.)
Sa ki nouvo, frè mwen? - What's new my brother?
Brother → frè
My brother → frè mwen
Sak pase, nèg mwen? - What's up, my man?
