@nodeue she has a habit of sometimes without thinking to read a few words in patois, in fact there are students who still speak thier own language all the time while in college

[nodeue]

@boots992134 Well of course she doesn't speak that way to you, you wouldn't understand. Do all foreign students in your university speak to you in their native languages? I doubt it, they probably talk to you in standard English. Nobody said that Jamaicans can't speak standard English; this is just the native speech of Jamaica.

It depends what region you are from. If you live in the cities it's very unlikely that you will speak patois.

I know a jamaican in college and she does not speak like this let alone sound like that
