Bonswa Everyone.. My Mum, left for the states when I was still in diapers, she only spoke in our native tongue when she spoiled me. So I didn't learn 😕 Thank you for your time to help a desperate soul wanting to learn her native tongue. MESI ASE'

My husband is Hatian. When I visit Haiti , it is very difficult to function because I have no idea what is going on around me. I have not been able to build much of a relationship with his mother because we cannot speak on the phone. She teaches me how to cook and wash , etc by showing me the action and then repeating the word . We have begun to talk in my absence by leaving voice messages on Whatsapp. After watching these videos and practicing the content, Manmi ka konprann mwen! li tèlman kontan tande pitit fi l la pale kreyòl! mwen renmen li anpil !! mwen ka finalman kòmanse onore chè manmi mwen ak mari m. Mèsi anpil!

_Pwonounce_ I love how they changed the "r" to "w" like in "wouj". It's more smooth. I enjoy this feature of Creole.

As a Haitian trying to perfect small pronunciations for when I visit Haiti, "Di" and "Ti" is a lot harder to pronounce. Is there a way you could go slower or perhaps provide a different example to better master the pronunciation. Thank you. The series is great.

Hi Fred, thank you for the feedback. One thing you can do to facilitate saying "di" and "ti" is by pronouncing "di" as /dzee/ and by pronouncing "ti" as /tsi/. But, try to combine the "t" and "s" when pronouncing "tsi" and "d" and "z" when pronouncing "ti." You will come fairly close if you do so.

Also, do you provide independent lessons?

I don't provide independent lessons at the moment. But, it is something that I am truly considering.

Perfect, I would love help writing it or simply practice speaking it. I have my mother and brothers I speak to, but since I am away with school there aren't many Creole speaking Haitians around. If we could even have email exchanges in creole would be a blessing. Thanks for the uploads.

American English and (college) French speaker here, some linguistics background -- Is the Z in D(Z)I and T(S)I "lighter" or "harder" (firmer) in DI and TI? -- Do you _always_ pronounce these as [dzi] and [tsi], or are there exceptions, and are they indicated in Haitian spelling? Does this happen with KI and GI, ever? Merci beaucoup pour votre assistance. J'aime bien ces vidéos, ce sont bien clairs et simples, faciles d'apprendre. Recommendés!

Hi, thank you so much for the support Ben. Yes, that is almost, almost always the case. I am refraining from making an absolute rule here, because it is fine if you don't accentuate the "di" sound as "dzi," for example. However, by stressing it as "dzi," you will sound more like a native speaker.
