I was born in haiti and then adopted into America. Now I've forgotten my language. How do I begin to relearn it?

Have you visted Haiti since the adoption?
Have you kept in touch with your biological family?
Are you well informed of your culture and the history of Haiti's foundation?
Perhaps you can invite your family to learn the language together with you.
