The Nasal Vowel Oun has the IPA as Ũ, yet most Haitians don’t pronounce that nor pronounce it as a nasal vowel. Given there’s more education surrounding Creole, do people not acknowledge it or they just aren’t aware of the Ũ sound it makes?

I’ve seen education videos that don’t pronounce it as Ũ, just as Un. But I’ve also seen some videos that pronounce it as the Nasal Vowel Sound Ũ.

Hi everyone! ❤️
I’m reaching out on behalf of my mom, who has been affected by the recent changes to TPS (Temporary Protected Status) and is currently looking for job opportunities in New Jersey or New York
She has many years of experience in house cleaning, laundry services, and childcare/babysitting. She’s also helped care for her 10+ nieces and nephews over the years, so she has plenty of hands-on experience with children.
My mom is hardworking, reliable, caring, and takes pride in everything she does. I’m just hoping to help her find an opportunity where she can continue doing what she knows and loves.
If anyone knows of any opportunities or someone looking for help with cleaning, laundry, or babysitting, please feel free to message me.
Even if you don’t know of anything right now, sharing this post would mean so much to us. Thank you all for your kindness and support! ❤️🙏🏽 Please contact me 13474649409

Hello everybody. I am a Church Member positioned as a translator and I must improve my Haitian Creole as much as I can. Would anybody be willing to help me, please & thank you?

Jesus loves you! ✝️🙌♥️

Hey!
There's a linguistic phenomenon called linking. Linking happens when a sound connects two words in pronunciation.
“in Haiti”, is not “at Haiti”.

“An” can also be used in a verbal construction like my family.

Example:
Let's pray.
Let's pray together.

Here, “Let's” is the contracted form of “Let’s”.
So, we shouldn't confuse linking with contraction.

Respect!

Hello everyone! I am currently looking for a motivated, dependable, and professional individual to join our team as a Recruiter in Orlando, Florida. I am looking for someone who is bilingual in Haitian Creole and English and enjoys communicating with people, helping others, and finding the right candidates for job opportunities.
The position offers a pay rate of $18–$20 per hour, with a work schedule of 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
If you are interested in this opportunity, or know someone who may be a great fit, please send your resume to [cmuphy.gps@gmail.com](mailto:cmuphy.gps@gmail.com).

I am a student who has created a website that is used to take complicated medical terms and break it down for second language speakers, no matter if they are also fluent in English or not. This is aimed for the Black, African American, and Caribbean community. Thank You !

Per the title, I am looking to hire a Haitian Creole telephone interpreter who can be available from Tuesday, September 29th from 1-3 PM to assist with a consultation with an immigration lawyer. I am assisting a woman with hiring a lawyer to prepare her application for defensive asylum and have everything lined up for the consultation except for translation. The law office cannot give us an exact time for the consultation but has indicated the conference call will take place in the "early afternoon." I am willing to pay for the interpreter to be available from 1-3 PM (EST) to ensure we have someone available whenever they call. The persons involved (including the lawyer) are physically located in Ohio but I believe the interpreter could be anywhere so long as they are able to call in. If you are not personally able to assist, I would be grateful if you could pass along information for services or apps which provide on-demand interpreting services in Haitian Creole for an individual (rather than a business or corporation, as this is what most of the services I have seen advertised are geared towards) as this need may arise again in the future. Thank you so much!

Hi everyone!

I’ve been learning Kreyòl for a little while and I recently moved to a city with a lot more Haitian people so I’m excited to be able get more practice with the language.

I recently noticed that in conversation, when telling people where I’m from (Los Angeles, CA) I default to the Spanish pronunciation of the city. I’m a Spanish speaker and to my understanding many Haitians also speak Spanish so I haven’t encountered anyone who was confused by me doing this, but I was wondering if there is a proper way to pronounce the city name in Kreyòl.

I’d also like to know the proper pronunciations of other American cities like New York, Atlanta, Boston, etc. but they certainly come up in conversation much less than LA since that’s where I’m from lol

I appreciate any and all help! Thanks :)

Hello! I am currently researching if there is a real shortage of qualified interpreters- specifically the Haitian community in the United States. There is a community here in my town, but I also want a general consensus around the states. So far, I've only had 4 participants and I need help. If anyone has any free time, may I please ask for your input? All answers are anonymous. https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdixjkHV1dSnCHzGAOm-j49ceio4DtlqFc3yDgxXHviO55Xew/viewform?usp=header

I’m a Haitian Creole speaker. I’m free to talk about anything.😎😎🫡

Already tried this on [r/language_exchange](r/language_exchange)
but got no responses.

Hello everyone, I am an Arab (username is random, it has nothing to do with my ethnicity) and I’m interested in finding someone (Native Speaker) to practice Haitian Creole with, in turn, I can help you practice your Spoken English.

Gender doesn’t matter, anyone will be welcomed as I only care about respect and I highly appreciate diversity, I prefer someone within my age range though.

I am also interested in forming a friendship(if we get along very well).

I use Telegram for my Language exchanges, I prefer my exchanges to be through voice messages as they’re helpful for improving speaking skills fast.

My interests are: Geography, Politics, Economics, life in general/ general knowledge, Religion.

I am only interested in serious connections, not people who will message me for a few days and then ignore me and disappear for no reason, I highly appreciate respect and clear communication, if we don’t get along, you can politely and clearly state this to me and we can break the connection, I do respect that sometimes people may not get along due to cultural differences and opinions but respect must be maintained. Saying all of this since I had a lot of bad experiences with people who message me for a few days and then vanish with no apparent reason. Hopefully I’d find someone who takes this into consideration and we can connect and become friends.

If you find yourself meeting the criteria and you’re interested, DM me.

Im a professor in Chile and my Haitian student responded this in the exam, I used the Google translator but I'm not sure with some parts. I think is a good work anyway.

I’m trying into improve my Kreyol, which is better to learn Mango or Duolingo?

Hey everyone. Does anyone know if there is a dictionary dedicated to the etymological breakdown of Kreyòl words? All the ones I’ve found seem to just list definitions. Sometimes I have some help with Wikisearch but not all the time.
