how do you say "this time" Is it "fwa sa a"??? and how do you say " next time"? is it pwochen fwa?? are these correct??

You are awesomely correct.

This time → fwa sa a
Next time → pwochèn fwa.

Keep it up.

He is Risen

He is risen.
Li resisite.

He is raised from the dead.
Li leve soti nan lanmò.

Death could not get a hold of Him.
Lanmò pa't kab kenbe Li.

"The earth is the Lord's and everything in it." Psalm 24: 1

"The earth is the Lord's and everything in it."
"Tè a ak tout sa ki ladan li se pou Bondye."

How do I say: It is something that hurts me....li se yon bagay that hurts me.

It is something that hurts me.
Se yon bagay ki fè m mal.

It is something that saddens me.
Se yon bagay ki atriste m.

i get it right this time

I get it right this time.
Mwen byen fè l fwa sa a. (I did it right this time)
Mwen byen konprann li fwa sa a. (I understand it well this time)

What does Qui me risque de rien a rien mean

Qui ne risque rien n'a rien.
He who risks nothing has nothing.
Nothing ventured nothing gained.

truly beautiful! (Tout bon bèl? or Reyèlman bèl?)

Truly beautiful!
Vrèman bèl!
Reyèlman bèl!

Happy Easter!

Happy Easter!
Bòn Fèt Pak!


I wish you a Happy Easter
Mwen swete w yon Bòn Fèt Pak.


Jesus Christ is risen.
Jezi Kri resisite.


The lamb is alive.
Anyo a vivan.


He's not in the tomb anymore.
Li pa nan tonm nan ankò.


He conquered death.
Li gen pouvwa sou lanmò.

Mwen swete ou yon Pak kontan.

You should say rather :)


Mwen swete ou yon Bon Pak!
I wish you a Happy Easter!


Happy Easter!
Bòn Fèt Pak!

how to say "Hello, my name is Shannon."

Bonjou or Bonswa, mwen rele Shannon.

that's the spirit

That's the spirit!
Palemwadsa!
Se konsa!
Se konsa li ye!
Anfòm anfòm!

how to say I am sad for your father

I am sad for your father.
Mwen tris pou papa w.

I am sorry (about what happened) to your father.
Mwen regrèt sa'k rive papa w la.

I am sad/sorry.
Mwen dezole.
Mwen regrèt.

I am sorry about that.
Mwen dezole pou sa.
Mwen regrèt sa

What does this mean: Mwen ta renmen di kek bagay mwen pral regret. se sa ap fe'm tan jiske nou sou ansanm.

Mwen ta renmen di kek bagay mwen pral regret.
I'd like to say some things I will regret.

Se sa ap fe'm tan jiske nou sou ansanm.
does not make sense....

Could that second one be:
Se sa k fè m tann jouk nou sou ansanm?
That's why I wait until we're both drunk ?
