Mandaly, I think Michel Martelly is all about "Bandi Legal". What do you think?
I think if you're not trying to promote his album, then you are confusing the artist with the politician.

bandi legal
Is there such thing? Do you know that "bandi legal' is an oxymoron?
I hope it wasn't a mirrored image of things to come.
The whole thing would be a shame.
The Haitian people has had enough misfortune.

I'm looking at ur statement. "If you can wear a suit and carry a VIP card then you're fit to be president". Are you glad that Michel Martelly is president Haiti. How's so?
I'll be happy to see some change for the better. I know it'll take time.
Martelly has the opportunity to bring that change.
Of course I'm glad to see us moving toward another "face".
Let's hope that Martelly uses his term to positively influence Haiti and its people.
As soon as his term begins he should waste no time getting rid of what doesn't work. He should immediately institute better ways to cultivate the best that Haiti has to its advantage.
If he drags his feet, the people will lose patience. Then he'd end up in the same basket as the others.

Bonjou, Mandaly. I don't want to bother you, but I simply had to ask you whether you know what are the most common expressions or sayings from haitian countryside....
Expressions vary depending on the location. North and South have a slight accent. People in the North tend to add a -y at the end of their sentences. Way further in the countryside old traditions are very well preserved. People are quite welcoming and courteous. If you do travel to the counrtyside, and you are on foot, don't forget to say, Bonjou misye! or Bonjou madanm! to passers sharing the dirt roads with you.

Haitian Creole word for 'guys'
guys (men only) - mesye
guys (guys and girls) - mesyedam
Lord, teach me how to testify in the power and anointing of your Holy Spirit. give me your words and your heart as I share your gospel.
Senyè, ansenye mwen kouman pou m temwanye pa pouvwa ak konsekrasyon Sentespri a. Ban mwen pawòl ou ak kè ou pou m ka pataje levanjil ou a.
