    To mamaguy someone is not to ridicule. That one is wrong. It means to flatter someone excessively for your own advantage. That's why most parents tell their kids "Doh mamaguy meh"

    How di Jamaican didn't know ''never-see-come-see'' and us in Jamaica say it all the time about someone not use to anything good before now,, when Trini said short for eye-de-a-mi-knee she was kinda right. ''pop-down'' use by mostly Jamaican WOMEN means the other female deteriorated.

    Listen my Caribbean fam, in Jamaica the the way how we speak and express ourselves depends on which part of the country you are from. For eg. the word screbbe, is mostly used in the cities. However when it is used in the rural areas it maintain its meaning but the accent and spelling change. ( " Krebbe Krebbe!".Buttu, cruff, jingbang, skettel all have the same generic meaning and that is... a person of low character or a reject of society.
