“If they shoot at us, we will shoot back.”
I don’t speak French but I understand “bang bang”
The Haitian slaves revolted and won their freedom and independence on their own terms and the western imperialists have never forgiven them for it. Hope they get their demands.
the people of Haiti have suffer for so long under western imperialism, hopefully when they overthrow that fascist the US empire would be too weak to intervene for a while
by the way in haiti they dont speak french :france-cool: , they speak Haitian Creole which is a mix of french and west african languages
That’s interesting, are they mutually intelligible?
Edit: In case it’s unclear I wasn’t meaning to discredit Haitian Creole as its own language, it’s just that I too had thought they spoke French and wanted to know how wrong I was
The language emerged from contact between French settlers and enslaved Africans during the Atlantic slave trade in the French colony of Saint-Domingue (now Haiti). Although its vocabulary is mostly taken from 18th-century French, it also has influences from Spanish, Portuguese, Taino, English and West African languages It is not mutually intelligible with standard French and has its own distinctive grammar. Haitians are the largest community in the world speaking a modern creole language.
That’s interesting, are they mutually intelligible?
If they’re speaking slowly, then there’s a short extent of intelligibility, otherwise not.
French media uses subtitles and dubbing, so it’s not considered intelligible.
Incredibly lit and freebased. Fuck colonialism
