This is neither Creole, nor French.
But it may pass for some type of French :)

If you want to say it in French, say: Comment allez-vous?
If you want to say it in Creole, say: Kouman ou ye?
In English that would be: How are you?
I am putting on a volleyball camp for Haitians. How do I say "set the ball" and "hit the ball"? What is word for teammate?
Set the ball
mate boul la tounen(bounce the ball back)
voye boul la tounen(throw the ball back)
Set it!
Mate l tounen!
Voye l tounen!
Hit the ball
Frape boul la
team → ekip
players → jwè yo
teammate → manm ekip la
How do you say "the girls' pen"? plim fi yo?
Yes, "plim fi yo" is correct.
Since you asked that question, you probably already know that "plim" could also mean "pubic hair" (in Creole). So, don't be surprise if you get a few chuckles out of this one.

Thanks commentator :)
dyòlè → boastful, arrogant, loudmouth
dyòl → (not such a pleasant word for "mouth" in Creole) nozzle, beak, trap
Fèmen dyòl ou. (vulgar expression)
Shut your trap.
is it correct to say he speaks creole or haitian
He speaks Creole.
or
He speaks Haitian Creole (if you want to be precise as to which Creole he speaks)
A few years ago, it was debated whether to change the name of the language to Haitian.
That's why, in some books, you will notice that they called it Haitian instead of Creole.
