On my recent trip to Osaka a few months ago for the creators event with my friends, we had the sudden urge to eat Jamaican food. We found a spot called “Corner Shop Jerk” @perverseiq . This place was slamming! The food was amazing but most of all was the owner/ chief IQ. He was super funny and spoke Jamaican Patois. We had a quick interview with him and had one of the hardest laughs in Osaka. #jamaica #jamaicanaccent #learnenglish #osakapeople #osakaaccent #english
Dam we visited Osaka in April 2023. The food was delicious. I miss it. I would have loved to go eat at that restaurant and meet him. I was just saying Japanese can cook other nationality foods and it’s delicious
Where is this shop exactly? I visited Japan almost annually, and this january I'm going to have another visit (to Nagoya, but well Osaka is within reach). Is it around Namba?
People are saying he has a Jamaican accent, but he doesn't. When he speaks Patwa, his voice becomes a mixture between Jamaican and Japanese and it's so charming. But his vibe is so Jamaican. lol Love him! You are so right!
First time I went to Japan, there was a Jamaican festival on. I learnt it goes on every year. Lots of people love reggae and dancehall there, I was very impressed to see people genuinely interested in our culture
People go to Jamaica and get bad vibed from beach hustla's. They dont realize that that is not the true Jamaica. Tourist need to leave the resorts and travel around island more. Seen?
"It's not English, it's Patois." The fact that this dude knows that we have our own language and doesn't call it an accent or dialect makes me already like him.
@@IrenicCryogenic no, it definitionally isn't. It borrows words and influences from like 8 languages, making it not a dialect of english. Why're you so confidently wrong?
@@windmillcollecter4440 It's an English based creole language. "Meaning that at the time of its formation the vocabulary of English served as the basis for the majority of the creole's lexicon". Its mutually intelligible and heavily derived from the English language. Just like Scottish. You can define it as a separate "language", but If you have a transcript, or listen attentively, an English speaker could understand it.
Jamaican-Japanese connection runs deep and for many years. Some highlights: A Japanese woman was named Dancehall Queen once. There was a language program where Jamaicans could go to Japan to teach English and Japanese could teach Japanese at UWI.
I met a Chinese woman who was born and raised in Jamaica her grand parents had migrated there along with other Chinese families at that time. Talking to her and watching her surprise people with her accent was hilarious. I hope she’s doing great these days 😊
Lots of Chinese in JA. My Grandma was married to one and had 5 children with him. But the small community of Japanese are the latest migrants and are far more unique, imho.
@@nr6665 Eh, people emigrate because they want, china is crowded but there are many cities in the world that are crowded, singapore and south korea are twp great examples
@@Steak818I mean even the way he says Dirty isn't in a Japanese accent, he says it with a clear Jamaican one. He says "Dutty" instead the usual Japanese "Daati". It's very hard to hear but unless you're used to hearing Japanese people speak in heavily accented English, you can't hear the clear difference. As for why i'm familiar with how Jamaicans say "Dutty", it's thanks to artists like Sean da Paul and Spice.
Good for him. Haven’t heard that ‘p’ word for sooooo long, lmao. There are a lot of Chinese Jamaicans (born and bred in Jamaica), but I’ve never met a Japanese Jamaican. This was so cool to watch!
i've been asked before if im caribbean... even though i look 100% asian... im confused i understand the whole going into a kazakh/uzbek restaurant and being spoken to in russian, but caribbean? lol

Many of the corner shops in Jamaica are owned and run by East Asian people who speak fluent patois. The first time I ever stumbled across one I was shocked, but it was such a cool sight to see! Love the mixture of culture 🙌🏾
@@katet8639 Every city/country in the world is potentially dangerous if you go into the wrong neighbourhood! Jamaica has good and bad spots for 'tourists'. Just do your research and you'll be fine!
@LindaWisdomphotography completely agree lol, there are so many parts of Jamaica that are completely safe. Not sure why someone would generalise the entire country as being dangerous when that couldn’t be farther from the truth
Japan has a reggae subculture and some really like the Jamaican heritage also Soca stuff which I would never guess, it seems all around the world we tend to love great music and culture. There are alot of Chinese people as well who reside in the Caribbean.
as a half japanese half caribbean girl this is so attractive to see a japanese man so diverse and open to another culture 😭i can hear the japanese accent with the patois but his patois is so good
My insurance agent is an older Chinese gentleman, but his English has a slight Chinese accent tinged with a heavier Jamaican patois... and he also makes the best jerk chicken. Good frien’ betta dan packet money! (A good friend is better than money in the pocket.) 🤣
That is a common statement in Jamaica, the line a bit less known and more debated is "Good name betta than money!" (A good name is better than money) I learnt this first hand because I was supposed to be expelled after a fight, but I was highly respected, one teacher said "Everybody knows he isn't the kind of person that enters meaningless conflicts, it things were so bad that he slammed someone's head in a wall he probably gave a number of warnings" and that was the end of that discussion. Another common statement is "Manners carry yo through the world" (Manners can brin you through the world) simply being the kind of person that gives waves of acknowledgement, say good morning and good evening has caused people to give me discounts, invite me to events, give me free rides to different locations and on. It is amazing how internalizing small ideas significantly change the flow of our life.
I understand that feeling, I was from HK and my kindergarten English teacher was a Irish-Scot lady from Britain. I lost that accent eventually(tragic I know), but imagine a bunch of kids of different ethnicity(Chinese, Caucasian, Africans, etc) speaking very thick and heavy Scottish accent at a mere age of 3. My mom used to bring me to this restaurant pub for lunch after school, the Scottish owner ended up being my god father(RIP da god bless his soul) solely because "ye accent means ye belong to us now laddie".
Honestly I’m not really surprised, when I used to live in Jamaica as a child, there were a lot of Asian people that resided there. They learned to the culture and language, they one of us fr.
You were right this was very interesting. I’ve never heard a Japanese accent mixed with the Jamaican one. This man was funny too. Will have to check him out once I make it out there.
I work in a town with a large Brazilian immigrant community. Brazil also has a large Japanese community. I used to work with this little boy who of course looked Japanese but spoke with a full Brazilian accent.
Idk why, but I absolutely love when Japanese people are THIS multicultural. The country really ought to open up. So many opportunities... Like this man is an inspiration.
This is so interesting to me. That’s really his second language. I know American English isn’t the standard, but I guess I never thought about the possibilities.
videos like this are what we all need to pop up in our feeds.interviewer was great interviewee was great.and the premise of a Japanese man learning English from a Jamacian teacher WOW
as an asian i learn more english from ebonics the accent and flow is easier for me compared to the standard hollywood english or the standard most common accent
