some of you have asked about the intro song used in my video. The full song is now out on my channel. Here the link to go listen ruclips.net/video/Y4EEaoSivAE/видео.html
I was at a birthday party last week and there was a man who was from Mauritius. I was talkin to my Haitian friend and said sum in Haitian creole, he overheard it and started talkin Mauritius creole to me. I understood almost everything he was sayin, so did he. We both was so surprised that we could understand each other. We had a fun conversation learning the similarity’s between our languages.😃
I really enjoyed your video. I am half Mauritian myself and I speak Mauritian Creole and Reunionese Creole which are two very similar Creoles but I understand more or less the West Indian Creoles. All the creoles are beautiful. 🇷🇪🇲🇺🇭🇹🇬🇫🇬🇵🇱🇨🇧🇧🇸🇨✨
As a Mauritian, I've met Haitian creole speakers before and the same thing happened where I can understand their Creole more than they can understand mine
Congratulations for this cultural interactions. Creole is a great language, more than 5 countries in th world share similarities in creole: Haiti, Domininca, Martinique, Guadalupe, St-Lucia,Seychelles.

Subscribe and turn on your post notifications so you get updated when I upload a new video Here is a video about Seychellois creole ruclips.net/video/Gl6Sfau1g0A/видео.html
Dominican Creole is spoken just the same. We have the same colonial history. Once French, turned British. The settlers are Amazonian Carïbs, Arawaks (Kalinagos) and Africans from the Atlantic shore lines. Haitians, Dominicans, St. Lucians and the French West Idian islands all speak/understand everything said by both of you. Keep spreading the love and culture!
Hi guys, I really enjoyed watching your video. Few years ago, I met a friend from Mauritius, we spent hours talking in our respective Creole language. It was amazing to realize that we could understand each other very easily. The very few linguistic differences that we noted were about the structure of the sentences, the lexical fields, and grammar. However, more importantly we were able to communicate and understand each other easily. Thank you for your video.
In Mauritius, the creole that our grandparents talk or their idiomatic expressions is 50% different from what is spoken nowadays. It is constantly evolving. Old people sometimes can't understand the new words that we introduced into the language or vice-versa, sometimes they have to explain us the meaning of some sentences that make no sense to us. Even my parents & siblings laugh at me for not understanding their creole, sometimes, and they still laugh at me when they don't understand my creole. It's a little bit weird to explain this but yeah.. everyone has its own way of speaking creole and in the end we all understand each other perfectly everywhere on the island regardless of one's accent. There are only 2 kind of Mauritian in the end.. those who say "depi" (depuis) and "ziska" (jusqu'à) correctly and those who say them incorrectly.. but we still perfectly understand what they meant. Creole was introduced in schools, approximatively 5-10 years ago, as this could help a lot of children but in the end we still don't know if it's worth it. In primary schools, secondary schools as well as some universities here, teacher use creole as a language medium to make their pupils better understand the topic explanations. Our Ministry of Education made it an official subject to be taught in primary schools. Oriental languages (Hindi, Tamil, Arabic, Mandarin) are still taught in primary schools since before our independence in 1968, if i'm not wrong. French and English were always compulsory. Even after the British Empire beat the French in 1810 and conquered the island, the inhabitants continued talking French instead of English. Legislations were British, but the Civil Code remained French though. Most slave masters. if not all, were French. Around 70 000 people lived on the island before the abolition of slavery (in 1835 /in Mauritius, all thanks to Haiti in 1804?). Most of them were slaves (63 000) and the rest were French, mixed people and traders from Pondicherry (French East India Company), China and Europe. To replace the slaves, the British, in turn, brought around 450 000 indentured laborers from different regions of India to work in the sugarcane fields as they were cheap laborers but hard workers who knew how to bring the full potential of their fertile lands. Only thing to know: Mauritian Creole - spoken by everyone for everything (informal/formal) French - more polite way of speaking (formal/informal) English - in the parliament (an exception for creole curse words/sentences) or for tourists who don't speak French. So most of us (80%) understand and speak at least one of those 3 languages very well. 70% speak/learned an oriental language. From my part I speak German too.. it depends.. others speak Spanish, Italian, Russian, Dutch, Portuguese, other.. but that's less than 1% of the population. On any radio channel you can hear Indian, African, European & US hits, or Latino (example: Reggeaton), West Indians (Dancehall, Soca, Reggae, Kompa, Zouk, etc...) music at anytime of the day. It was always like this.. And on Sundays, there's mostly retro music/oldies since 6:00am till 6:00pm.. it doesn't bother anyone as most of the people are at the beach chilling on weekends (before Covid-19). And for a lot of us, football is a religion.
Well explained, I wish we kept that old Mauritian kreol, it was much more poetic and less frenchy. The thing is that most people thnk the kreol is a rude language and that they need to speak french to keep a standard. That is what has been distorting the evolution the language I reckon. I love reunion island creole, theirs a similar to Caribbean creole. It is sale to the music
@@Iy3h I can totally see where you’re coming from. For us in the Caribbean who speak an English-based creole for example the Jamaican patois, it is still at times not accepted and associated to uneducated people and the “Queen’s English” is seen as more sophisticated. But pioneers such as Louis Bennett has paved the way for embracing it more and the music culture and arts has also helped to keep it alive and something for the people to be proud of as it’s unique to them
Hey y’all! Thanks for watching! Slight editing error at minute 10:27 for the Haitian Creole personal pronouns Nou means we and yo is they. Zot is also used You can check out the first video done about Haitian Creole that was referenced in this video ruclips.net/video/ImuhE4OofPQ/видео.html
I’m here because I watched a movie called Resort to Love and they filmed it in Mauritius and I noticed they speak a type of creole! It’s crazy how similar our creoles are. I am Haitian American and speak Creole. I’d love to visit Mauritius!
Omg I literally just finished watching that movie an hour ago and had to learn more!! I’m Haitian too, born in America :) This is def my future honeymoon spot lol. Forget Paris/Hawaii 😂😂

Speaker of Louisiana Creole (also known as Kouri-Vini) here. I really enjoyed this! I used to work with a lot of Haitians in Orlando, and we used to love comparing our two Creole languages! Here are a few words and phrases in Louisiana Creole: Pronouns: mo, to, li, nou(zòt), vouzòt/zòt, yé Komen to yê? = How are you? Komen ç’apé kouri? = How’s it going? Ki ça di? = What’s up? Ayou to sòr?/Ki koté to sòr? = Where are you from? Komen yé pèl twa?/Komen to pélé? = What is your name? Ki laj to gin? = How old are you? Ki t’olé manjé? = What do you want to eat? Ki t’ap(é) fé? = What are you doing? Mo ka édé twa astè. = I can help you now. Mo p’olé kouri vizité tô paren-yé. = I don’t want to go visit your parents. And everyone’s favorite... Mo linm twa! = I love you!
@@CharisMaggieTV I've got a question, how do you distinguish "us" and "y'all" (you plural) in Haitian? Since both is "nou". I looked as an example a verse from the Bible: Nou konnen tou sa m te moutre nou, avèk otorite Senyè Jezi te ban mwen an.
@@xolang In this example the NOU represents YOU. He's speaking to some people he used to teach. Now how do we differ NOU/WE to NOU/YOU? You'll have to follow the conversation to figure it out. I think it's somehow like the two YOUs in English.
@@roamerdameus7721 @Roamer Daméus Thank you for your reply. I just tried using online translator and this is what came up: You know all that I have taught you, by the authority of the Lord Jesus. Although originally it's "all that WE have taught you". This is just an example of several verses in the Bible where _we/us_ and _you (plural)_ are in the same sentence. Apparently the Haitian translation replaced "we" with "I" in this case. the ambiguity of _you_ in English can be easily solved by saying _you guys, y'all, you people_ , etc. Is there a way to distinguish "all that we have taught you" and "all that you have taught us" in Haitian? so to know who's the subject and who's the object? cause theoretically it would be "tout sa nou te anseye nou", wouldn't it? how about "all that we have taught ourselves" or "all that you have taught yourselves"?
@@xolang Let's try something. Let's say you and I, we go to Haiti to train a group of people about something, after the training we are writing them regarding that training. We can consider the group as "one person", then our sentence would be: *tout sa NOU te aprann OU* for "all that we taught you".
I am very proud of you. Wow, it is so educative. I hope that you continue doing it to all other countries that speak Creole. This is so important to bring all of us together
Yes indeed, I am Haitian, I am a president of a major Political party in Haiti that calls Reformiste. One of our goals is to unify our Creole speaking worldwide. I highly applaud you for that commitment to make a real changes in our society. My name if FRANTZ TURENE, I live in the USA, and I also open and operate a Credit Union Bank in Haiti that helps the poor people in Haiti. We offer micro finance for small businesses in Haiti. You are a great leader. I am so proud of you. I am so excited when I watch your show. You are so special and very proud of you. It is time to be united all Creole speaking worldwide.
@@larevolution1937 Is it me or I really missed a part in your comment here ? Haiti can't own nor run businesses. It's like throwing money through the window. Visit Facebook/RUclips and take a look at what businesses on the "wout ayewopò " are going through currently. Help us, young Haitians flee this country instead. Your money will be used for better purposes. But actually, it's yours, you can keep wasting it...It's up to you.
This is really cool to discover this channel. I'm Haitian and guess what, my wife is Mauritian, and I was in Mauritius this past year. Mauritian Creole is pretty interesting. I got comfortable holding a solid convo pretty quickly. Much love!

"Hier mo ti ale baza, mone aste carotte" = "Ye mwen te al nan mache, mwen te achte kawot" (or if you're from endeyo like my father's people "ye'm ta-l nan mache, m'te ache kawot" some regions use "baza" for market en Ayiti) basically "yesterday I went to the store, I bought carrots" in Spanish it could be "ayer fui al bazar, compre zanahorias" typically we'd say "tienda" rather than the word for "market". I'm Haitian born so understand everything she said, but I also speak French and Spanish. Also I am more fluent in Kreyol Ayisyen than Maggie which is why I can pick it up so easily. Anyway great video ladies!!!
"Bazar" in Mauritian Creole means vegetable street market.. word borrowed from Arabic. We say "la fwar" for clothes (accessories and ready to wear) street market
This was so cool to watch and reinforces the spiritual connection between us all in the diaspora around the world. Even though our ancestors were separated physically there remained that connection to the Silver Thread that unites us in consciousness and language! Thanks for doing this important work CharisMaggie:)
I'm Haitian and never valued Creole like I do now thanks to this video, I'm a sucker for English(I learned it) but the other girl "Koosoom" is wow, her accent is stunning. Hey Sis Maggie, You were incredible, I like it, much love. Nou remenw anpil
Very interesting video. I am from St. Lucia 🇱🇨 and we speak French creole, having been 7 times colonised by the French and 7 times by the British. Although our first Language is English we speak creole which we call "Patois". In this video I recognised that our St. Lucian 🇱🇨 creole has a combination of both the Haitian and Mauritian creole..and some words or terms for us fit into so many meanings 👏🏾👏🏾. Love your video 🤗🤗
Thanks so much. I learned that interesting fact last week when someone from St Lucia featured St.Lucian Creole on my channel Here’s the video if you’d like to check it out ruclips.net/video/VhD_7d_LB-c/видео.html

I love this channel keep doing more of these Maggie I'm from st.lucia I do speak creole it is very close to Haitian creole u can almost say it's the same
in mauritius kreol "PALE" mean "don't want" example "mo pale sa mwa" = i don't want that. but we used "KOZE" = Talk example "KOZE mo ecout twa" = talk am listening to you. :)
May be a slight change of dialect Personally i was a good friend with a girl from Rodrigue that was residing in mauritius She wanted to date but i was into another girl however she didn't had a weird accent But i can confirm that there is a dialect that is spoken in little villagers in mauritius
@@heroeus8173 Utter nonsense! I taught in Rodrigues island in 1995 in Marechal College and the creole in Rodrigues is same as Mauritian creole, just some differences in vocabulary. Arrête cause mensonges! (Stop talking trash). Get a life!
Cool video ladies!! I was also very surprised when I (Mauritian) met this gentleman from Haiti here in the usa speaking to me like a long lost cousin from another land.. we definitely had a proper conversation in creole..
I’d love to meet and talk to someone who speaks Haitian Creole or other Creole! I never thought that people living so far apart, on the other side of the planet speak the same language. I mean although it’s not the same, we’d still understand each other very well. I’m from Mauritius and this video just made my night! :)
What a nice video! I'm Haitian living in Montreal. I'm a seventh day adventist christian. We have our book of hymns which is called Hymnes et Louanges in French and Adventist Hymnal in English. I sing in a group whose name's Bèl Amoni Nan Kè. We have a book translated in haitian creole compared to our adventist hymnals. We sing in different adventist and protestant churches in Canada and the USA offering concerts and singing worship just in Creole By doing that, we try to go back to our sources as the first independent black nation in the world.

That was fun Maggie and Koosoom. Good idea. I'm ok with the Haitian Creole but it's nice as always to hear the Creoles as well. Even my non-creole-speaking friend who is trying to learn enjoyed this vid. It makes me appreciate the creoles more. I will try to find other non0Haitian creole speaking people and play the game you two played at the end. Very nice video in the end.
@@patrickhenri6739 … I’m very much confused by what you’re trying to say. A creole language is a mixture of other languages. Stop leaving out context by using the one definition of the word creole in the context of language. It also has another meaning in terms of people which is what you seem to be referring to
As a Haitian American this is probably the coolest video I've come across on RUclips (besides my own lol)... but I was so hype tryin to figure out the other girl's creole!!! This was awesome had to subscribe!!!
12:42 I think the better translation for Mauritian Creole would be "Monn koze avec Maggie" for "I spoke to Maggie", considering it's past tense and not past continuous which would be "mo ti koze avec Maggie". The word "avec" is also often changed to "ek".
Haiti is my dad's cousin but I never ever in my life heard of the other country mentioned in this video. This is amazing to me learning of a country and culture I"ve never heard of before. How did I not hear about this? Especially me being the type to be curious of all cultures.
You're doing a great job! thanks to you I learned so much about the similarities of the different Creoles speaking in certain countries. I really appreciate your videos. Go ahead! May God bless you.
@@CharisMaggieTV You deserve it. I would like to see the differences and similarities between the Creole-speaking countries. For example: music, food, clothes etc.
Am Mauritian person can read 4 languages in one paragraph.french,English, bhojpuri, Hindu, urdu(Asian language). It sound crazy but its amazing. I stumble across ur channel and love it. Ki manier Maggie. Tout korek. How are you Maggie ,everything good. We speak in 3rd person. Also old ppl from St Lucian in the carribean use to speak similar creole like Mauritian. Seychelles, Rodriguez island and part of reunion island.
Most interesting video ladies. Congratulations....Apparently in Louisiana also their creole language has similarities to both your two creole languages.I am Mauritian and understand many words of the Haitian Creole.
Good day to all, such a pleasure watching this from the Seychelles. I think Seychelles and Mauritian creole are 80% similar, we actually call each other cousins because of our proximity to each other and we share our culture eg: our sega and moutya music. Indian ocean vibes. I myself have a Mauritian grandfather and a Seychelloise grandmother on my mother's side.
I know that Haitian creole is so close to Seychelles creole cause I had many Seychelles friends when I was studying in Cuba, and we spoke creole together when we don't want speak french cause sometimes we don't want that other french peeps understand our conversation

This video puts a smile on my face. That's what so great when you can speak more than a language. It's beautiful when you see others speaking your language or similar to it 🇭🇹💪🏾

This was very interesting to watch ! There is a lot of similarities... but I bit my tongue about five times trying to pronounce those words . I just admire the way God made us all unique yet still we are all one . I enjoyed this video .
We can say “koze” in Haitian Creole too. We use it to describe a more casual conversation though. Example: when your parents want to have a chat with you and make you feel comfortable they can say “ban’m fè yon ti koze avè’w”. I’m curious is Maggie Haitian? Or just someone who knows some Haitian Creole?
absolutely love this, i speak creole from reunion island (near Mauritius) and was pleasantly surprised to "understand" Haitian when in Haiti ! Keep up the good work !
Really enjoyed the video and reading the comments, thanks!! Lived in Mauritius when quite young and Guadeloupe twice. So been exposed to Mauritian Creole, Guadeloupean Creole, Haitian Creole, and a little Dominican Creole. Really enjoyed hearing some Mauritian Creole again. Many fond memories of Mauritius. Will have to get much better at Creole (Guadeloupe) as planning to return to the French Antilles.
I loved this!! So interesting!! Also I paused after you guys tested each other's understanding of both languages (before you shared the answer) and I guessed both correctly hehe. For the first 2 sentences, did Koosoom say she went to the store (/market?) yesterday and bought a carrot?
Yes that would have been nice but I don’t know anyone who speaks Louisiana Creole sooo If you know someone, feel free to have them reach out to me at info@charismaggietv.com
Loved this, I didn't know of Mauritius. And it's ultimately amazing how similar our (Haïtian)( Maritian) languages are. Thank you for this vid, I learned so much.
Parler is the old Mauritian kreol. My grandmother would say parler instead of koze. We should not forget that Mauritian Creole is dynamic and keeps on evolving .
Wow that’s so interesting. Yah I remember she did mention to me that it changed over time. Would be interested to hear from someone of the older generation

Hi guys, I really enjoyed watching your video. Few years ago, I met a friend from Mauritius, we spent hours talking in our respective Creole language. It was amazing to realize that we could understand each other very easily. The very few linguistic differences that we noted were about the structure of the sentences, the lexical fields, and grammar. However, more importantly we were able to communicate and understand each other easily. Thank you for your video.
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching ☺️
In Mauritius, the creole that our grandparents talk or their idiomatic expressions is 50% different from what is spoken nowadays.
It is constantly evolving.
Old people sometimes can't understand the new words that we introduced into the language or vice-versa, sometimes they have to explain us the meaning of some sentences that make no sense to us.
Even my parents & siblings laugh at me for not understanding their creole, sometimes, and they still laugh at me when they don't understand my creole. It's a little bit weird to explain this but yeah.. everyone has its own way of speaking creole and in the end we all understand each other perfectly everywhere on the island regardless of one's accent.
There are only 2 kind of Mauritian in the end.. those who say "depi" (depuis) and "ziska" (jusqu'à) correctly and those who say them incorrectly.. but we still perfectly understand what they meant.
Creole was introduced in schools, approximatively 5-10 years ago, as this could help a lot of children but in the end we still don't know if it's worth it. In primary schools, secondary schools as well as some universities here, teacher use creole as a language medium to make their pupils better understand the topic explanations.
Our Ministry of Education made it an official subject to be taught in primary schools. Oriental languages (Hindi, Tamil, Arabic, Mandarin) are still taught in primary schools since before our independence in 1968, if i'm not wrong. French and English were always compulsory.
Even after the British Empire beat the French in 1810 and conquered the island, the inhabitants continued talking French instead of English. Legislations were British, but the Civil Code remained French though. Most slave masters. if not all, were French.
Around 70 000 people lived on the island before the abolition of slavery (in 1835 /in Mauritius, all thanks to Haiti in 1804?).
Most of them were slaves (63 000) and the rest were French, mixed people and traders from Pondicherry (French East India Company), China and Europe.
To replace the slaves, the British, in turn, brought around 450 000 indentured laborers from different regions of India to work in the sugarcane fields as they were cheap laborers but hard workers who knew how to bring the full potential of their fertile lands.
Only thing to know:
Mauritian Creole - spoken by everyone for everything (informal/formal)
French - more polite way of speaking (formal/informal)
English - in the parliament (an exception for creole curse words/sentences) or for tourists who don't speak French.
So most of us (80%) understand and speak at least one of those 3 languages very well.
70% speak/learned an oriental language.
From my part I speak German too.. it depends.. others speak Spanish, Italian, Russian, Dutch, Portuguese, other.. but that's less than 1% of the population.
On any radio channel you can hear Indian, African, European & US hits, or Latino (example: Reggeaton), West Indians (Dancehall, Soca, Reggae, Kompa, Zouk, etc...) music at anytime of the day. It was always like this.. And on Sundays, there's mostly retro music/oldies since 6:00am till 6:00pm.. it doesn't bother anyone as most of the people are at the beach chilling on weekends (before Covid-19).
And for a lot of us, football is a religion.
Wow well explained, I would like to learn more about Mauritian culture. It’s sounds interesting.
Wow this was a thoroughly explanation. Really appreciate it!
Well explained, I wish we kept that old Mauritian kreol, it was much more poetic and less frenchy.
The thing is that most people thnk the kreol is a rude language and that they need to speak french to keep a standard. That is what has been distorting the evolution the language I reckon.
I love reunion island creole, theirs a similar to Caribbean creole.
It is sale to the music
@@Iy3h I can totally see where you’re coming from. For us in the Caribbean who speak an English-based creole for example the Jamaican patois, it is still at times not accepted and associated to uneducated people and the “Queen’s English” is seen as more sophisticated. But pioneers such as Louis Bennett has paved the way for embracing it more and the music culture and arts has also helped to keep it alive and something for the people to be proud of as it’s unique to them
@@Iy3h I can’t wait for the Reunion creole video that I have coming up soon
Hey y’all! Thanks for watching!
Slight editing error at minute 10:27 for the Haitian Creole personal pronouns

To all my creole/kwéyòl brothers and sisters! from Saint Lucia 🇱🇨🇱🇨
Speaker of Louisiana Creole (also known as Kouri-Vini) here. I really enjoyed this! I used to work with a lot of Haitians in Orlando, and we used to love comparing our two Creole languages! Here are a few words and phrases in Louisiana Creole:
Pronouns:
mo, to, li, nou(zòt), vouzòt/zòt, yé
Komen to yê? = How are you?
Komen ç’apé kouri? = How’s it going?
Ki ça di? = What’s up?
Ayou to sòr?/Ki koté to sòr? = Where are you from?
Komen yé pèl twa?/Komen to pélé? = What is your name?
Ki laj to gin? = How old are you?
Ki t’olé manjé? = What do you want to eat?
Ki t’ap(é) fé? = What are you doing?
Mo ka édé twa astè. = I can help you now.
Mo p’olé kouri vizité tô paren-yé. = I don’t want to go visit your parents.
And everyone’s favorite...
Mo linm twa! = I love you!
I’m in need of a Louisanna creole speaker to help me for a video if interested 😅
@@CharisMaggieTV
I've got a question, how do you distinguish "us" and "y'all" (you plural) in Haitian? Since both is "nou".
I looked as an example a verse from the Bible:
Nou konnen tou sa m te moutre nou, avèk otorite Senyè Jezi te ban mwen an.
@@xolang In this example the NOU represents YOU. He's speaking to some people he used to teach.
Now how do we differ NOU/WE to NOU/YOU? You'll have to follow the conversation to figure it out. I think it's somehow like the two YOUs in English.
@@roamerdameus7721
@Roamer Daméus Thank you for your reply. I just tried using online translator and this is what came up:
You know all that I have taught you, by the authority of the Lord Jesus.
Although originally it's "all that WE have taught you".
This is just an example of several verses in the Bible where _we/us_ and _you (plural)_ are in the same sentence.
Apparently the Haitian translation replaced "we" with "I" in this case.
the ambiguity of _you_ in English can be easily solved by saying _you guys, y'all, you people_ , etc.
Is there a way to distinguish
"all that we have taught you"
and
"all that you have taught us"
in Haitian? so to know who's the subject and who's the object? cause theoretically it would be
"tout sa nou te anseye nou", wouldn't it? how about
"all that we have taught ourselves"
or
"all that you have taught yourselves"?
@@xolang Let's try something. Let's say you and I, we go to Haiti to train a group of people about something, after the training we are writing them regarding that training. We can consider the group as "one person", then our sentence would be: *tout sa NOU te aprann OU* for "all that we taught you".
I am very proud of you. Wow, it is so educative. I hope that you continue doing it to all other countries that speak Creole. This is so important to bring all of us together
I’m trying to find other people who speak those creoles to come as guests and help me out

@@larevolution1937 Is it me or I really missed a part in your comment here ?
Haiti can't own nor run businesses. It's like throwing money through the window.

"Hier mo ti ale baza, mone aste carotte" = "Ye mwen te al nan mache, mwen te achte kawot" (or if you're from endeyo like my father's people "ye'm ta-l nan mache, m'te ache kawot" some regions use "baza" for market en Ayiti) basically "yesterday I went to the store, I bought carrots" in Spanish it could be "ayer fui al bazar, compre zanahorias" typically we'd say "tienda" rather than the word for "market". I'm Haitian born so understand everything she said, but I also speak French and Spanish. Also I am more fluent in Kreyol Ayisyen than Maggie which is why I can pick it up so easily. Anyway great video ladies!!!

"pale" can also be "koze" in creole; it's a little bit more intimate.
Thanks for this clarification
Even in French. The French equivalent is causer which means to chat or converse
in mauritius kreol "PALE" mean "don't want" example "mo pale sa mwa" = i don't want that. but we used "KOZE" = Talk example "KOZE mo ecout twa" = talk am listening to you. :)
Yes ,koze, is basically used between adults trying to hook up with each other, more like flirting,,,

Creole Mauritian is different from creole in rodrigues too. We are in the republic of Mauritius but our language is different though.

May be a slight change of dialect

@@patrickhenri6739 … I’m very much confused by what you’re trying to say.
A creole language is a mixture of other languages. Stop leaving out context by using the one definition of the word creole in the context of language. It also has another meaning in terms of people which is what you seem to be referring to

12:42 I think the better translation for Mauritian Creole would be "Monn koze avec Maggie" for "I spoke to Maggie", considering it's past tense and not past continuous which would be "mo ti koze avec Maggie". The word "avec" is also often changed to "ek".

Good day to all, such a pleasure watching this from the Seychelles.

Update: Seychellois creole

95 % similar , the main difference is the accent
Sa se yo bèl bagay,mwen etidye kreyol lan univesite,mwen pat janm te we you moun ki sot Moritani kap pâle kryeo. Mèsi anpil
Se Lil Maurice
Félicitations je suis abonné à ta chaîne parce j'adore quand un haïtien ou une haïtienne met haiti en valeur devant les autre nation et la langue créole.

Èy laba! Mô nom çé Jistin, mo sór a Minmfis Oténési. mô parle kréyol lalwizyan.
I love this video it’s almost identical to Louisiana creole, and I almost understood everything.
Great video thank you both... i'm from mauritius and glad to learn a bit of the haitian creole who is yes in fact very close and similar... with spelling differences... always a pleasure to compare and learn other languages thank you. " Li ene zoli video mersi" (it's a nice video thank you) 😅😁😆😉
Thanks for watching ☺️
This video puts a smile on my face. That's what so great when you can speak more than a language. It's beautiful when you see others speaking your language or similar to it 🇭🇹💪🏾
Yayyy ☺️☺️☺️
@@CharisMaggieTV I love it, and the reason why I love it more because " Mwen pale e ekri Haitian Creole"
Congratulations I love it in some part in Haiti koze avem ,mean pale avem on a kind word 🥰
Thx guys. I was having fun. How would life be without differences. I appreciate. M te kontan (I was happy).
Indeed. thanks for watching
Mwen la wi,, map swiv nou, selman m konnen kreyol mwen an pa gen parey✌️
Merci zanmi'm
absolument , kreyol Ayisyen pam lan telman bel, li bien striktire ak reg gramatikal, etc pwezi se li , chante se li etc, houuuu mpa konn poukisa Ayisyen pa tro fier pou pale kreyol konsa surtout leu w rive nan yon biro, siw pale kreyol , yo gen tandans seviw apre moun ki ekxprimel an franse. franchement sa ecoeurant ! malgre tout kreyol pa gen parey, li tro bel lang!
Ayisyen tout tan
@@CharisMaggieTV you have a slight jamaican accent as well ,is that correct??
@@valfrancis5692 yes. That’s where I grew up
This was very interesting to watch ! There is a lot of similarities... but I bit my tongue about five times trying to pronounce those words . I just admire the way God made us all unique yet still we are all one . I enjoyed this video .
Very interesting
Loool I hope u never hurt it too bad 🥲
We can say “koze” in Haitian Creole too. We use it to describe a more casual conversation though. Example: when your parents want to have a chat with you and make you feel comfortable they can say “ban’m fè yon ti koze avè’w”. I’m curious is Maggie Haitian? Or just someone who knows some Haitian Creole?
I’m not, my parents are
@@CharisMaggieTV ohh I see. I appreciate you taking the time to make this video
@@winniemoline8930 thanks so much for watching ☺️
I was wondering the same thing,she almost sounds Jamaican.
@@chantaljoseph890 I do cuz that’s where I grew up but my parents are Haitians
absolutely love this, i speak creole from reunion island (near Mauritius) and was pleasantly surprised to "understand" Haitian when in Haiti ! Keep up the good work !
Really enjoyed the video and reading the comments, thanks!! Lived in Mauritius when quite young and Guadeloupe twice. So been exposed to Mauritian Creole, Guadeloupean Creole, Haitian Creole, and a little Dominican Creole. Really enjoyed hearing some Mauritian Creole again. Many fond memories of Mauritius. Will have to get much better at Creole (Guadeloupe) as planning to return to the French Antilles.
Happy to hear that. Thanks for watching ☺️
I'm Haitian and so proud
🙏🏾🙏🏾
I loved this!! So interesting!! Also I paused after you guys tested each other's understanding of both languages (before you shared the answer) and I guessed both correctly hehe. For the first 2 sentences, did Koosoom say she went to the store (/market?) yesterday and bought a carrot?
Thanks boo
Loool I have nooo idea🤣🤣🤣
Yess you guessed it right 🥰
M te gen konprann sal di a tou wi lloll
@@CharisMaggieTV l love what you are doing # kenbe la pa lage # may God bless you 🙏
@@cleffcv.recordz1678 thank you 😊
Felisitatyon,mw vrèman apresye travay ou a
Y’all should’ve had someone on there that speaks Louisiana Creole
Yes that would have been nice but I don’t know anyone who speaks Louisiana Creole sooo If you know someone, feel free to have them reach out to me at info@charismaggietv.com
I've lived here for about 12 years, most I've run into say Louisiana creole is dying but most say hello like we say it in Haitian creole, halo.
@@unknownx7252 No is not Lafayette Louisiana is the Heart and soul of Cajun and Creole Culture we not dead
Listen to Louisiana Creole music Zydeco and go to our Trail ride and creole festival and Cajun festival you will know it's not dead
@@juniormiles6773 and st laundry parish
Loved this, I didn't know of Mauritius. And it's ultimately amazing how similar our (Haïtian)( Maritian) languages are. Thank you for this vid, I learned so much.
Thanks for watching 💕
Parler is the old Mauritian kreol. My grandmother would say parler instead of koze. We should not forget that Mauritian Creole is dynamic and keeps on evolving .
Wow that’s so interesting. Yah I remember she did mention to me that it changed over time. Would be interested to hear from someone of the older generation
I wasn't expecting it to be so similar but great video. Very interesting
I am from Mauritius. Well explained. Loved it
Awesome 😎
