@tanheavy thats awesome! I'm 20 and learned a tremendous amount of French in the classroom in the pass 3 years and I'm anxious for my brain to just click one day and be fluent lol But you're an inspiration...

@tanheavy thats what i meant about changing it, dropping the s and r in some words, you do well for it not being your first language man... more power to you. Ive been to the dr a few times, i know the accent quite well.

@sferemonk True, but I can remember being young and finding the the concept funny as well, not because of Jamaica, but the knowledge that bobsledding was a cold weather sport. I would have felt this way about a Hawaiian team as well, or even Morrocan. Same way most people look twice at a Hollander with dreadlocks. Or a chinese man from my country (Trinidad) speaking just like we Trini. It's just about what you are naive too and how that strikes you as funny or new, odd or strange.

@tanheavy the Jamaican bobsleigh team is the Jamaican boblseigh team, Comedy factor doesn't come with Swiss Bobsleigh team (maybe obvioulsy). But jamaican Bobsleigh team becomes a comedy film. With icicle dreadlocks.

@ImpulsiveBlow Thank you! I was using my DR "missing you voice" lol. You can't please anyone though, because as much as I hear things about DR or Chilean accents, when you are in NYC, the spaniards are the pnes picked on. Esp for the C/Z sounds, they call them soft or maricas... or they say they talk like ther is a stick up the azz. Not saying I agree, but i hear these things. To me i like Spain's accent but only for clarity. I I feel the words are stuck inside the mouth. :)

@Enemyatthegates1 Please tell me where i added letters! remember i learned this language. I know i dropped some S but that is my street accent. I taught ESL to professionals in the DR who laughed when i used Habla'o en vez de Hablado... but sadly they aren't what the world knows when they think DR. I would love to know ho i sound to your ears. Did you see my concourse video yet. This here is a bad sample of me and just a test.

@SwirlieCurlies yes but that is not why i got good. I spent a yr volunterring while in NYC, teaching ESL with no traiing at all, to Mexicans and Central Americans for free. I asked for a class that could speak nothing and i would use my basic materials to teach, all the while having to repeat the basic spanish i knew... and it grew. But the time in the DR got me understanding FAST spoken spanish

@sferemonk but that would be specifying the fact he was breaking down barriers. My question is what esle could the Jamaican Bobsleigh team call themselves? I watch the games! When Switzerland comes out they don't say "the European bobsleigh team is here"... people would be like "which country/nation???" so they say the Swiss Bobsleigh team... and so if you are from Jamaica what should they call your team?
-
@sferemonk I agree, it does carry some of that - but that is my point. I meet people literally EVERYday that look at me like "you speak", heck they are my complexion at times. I want to spread knowledge that anyone can speak, including this Black Man. But... this is a fight that won't die. I am an Emcee as well, but any lady that raps is not called that, she is a "female emcee, or femcee" if you will. Eminem is a White Rapper. Sure we could call him a Detroit rapper...
