When he pointed out the Irish connection the lack of th sounds made sense. The Irish tend to drop the th and use t not d. So I would say three, a Jamaican dree, and an Irishman tree.
@@croweater6814 Actually, in that example a Jamaican (if using conversational patois) would say chree, or even chee, never dree. General rule if a vowel follows the th at the start of a word, *dat's* when you hear the d. But if th is followed by an r, ch is typical, eg again chree, chruck for truck, chrough for through etc Or again the r might be dropped altogether
@@damonreynolds6775 cheers for the correction, I often wonder if they teach pronunciation in Ireland and Jamaica. Teaching their students the "proper" way to miss pronounce these words.
I have an audition coming up for a character who’s from Jamaica and this was very helpful! Feel a bit more confident & excited to tackle the accent! Thank you!! 🎉
I am a Nigerian born but a Jamaican freak. I so love Jamaican culture, the music, their accent and so on. One love Rastafarians. Best Tutorials i have seen so far. Nice one PJ Minto. Manners and respect 🙌🏾
I am Jamaican American trying to learn myself. I had the accent during my father's funeral when I went back home to NY but it went away when I left. I also love African culture. Currently learning swahalii. Much love to all di carribean 🇯🇲

This is basically the template of how all "accent" videos should ever be done. I see most videos for other accents usually with a person who speaks that way or knows someone/has a family member who speaks that way, but they just talk to the camera and give some examples of a few words and maybe some pronunciation tips, but they're never this organized and set up like it's own type of dialect. As someone who loves language in all its forms (from actual languages, to dialects to even just slang and accents) I really appreciate the way this done and anyone who makes videos about accents/dialects should take note and do it like this. Not only does he list out even the most simple rules (like all the vowels used and their hard/soft versions) but he even lists the rules (like "r"s and "e"s at the ends of words change how they are pronounced) and then not only lists TONS of examples but lists them out for you in categories (like how words that end in "r" are written with a red "a" in the patios column and a green "r" in the other) This is an amazing video and I will like and bell just for that, even you don't have any other accent videos (this is my first of yours I've seen) because you deserve and I wanna see EVERY single accent/dialect video from now on done like this. You, sir have truly raised the bar in the field of teaching accents/dialects 👍 Edit: not to mention the little bit of history at the beginning too, that's totally unessisary but just shows the effort put in and how much better this is than most other videos like this *chef's kiss* 👨🍳👌
@smiley P. This was a well thought of critique. Every point you made is exactly what I wanted my video to have so it could stand out. You made a very constructive criticism. Thanks for doing that.
I’m mixed Jamaican/Trinidadian and English but grew up with my white side so I’m really trying to learn more of my culture and speak authentically with my aunties/uncles!! Thank you💕
That promotion at the end was the most Jamaican promotion ever. Real as hell. He said "check him out on trip advisor. He safe, he legit and he owe me some money"
If you're learning the Jamaican ENGLISH accent and need to watch an interview with a Jamaican artiste, I'd recommend the "Peter tosh interview New york 1986". 🙂 I'm sure other Jamaicans would approve watching this interview👍
Thank you so much for the recommendation. I'm really interested in Jamaican accent because I like it, but I always find videos about Patois. Are you Jamaican, by the way?
I never knew the Irish bit. Wow. And thanks. My dad side is from JM, it’s my heritage but I wanna dive more into it because I just naturally gravitate towards the culture.
As someone who lived more than half of his life in Ireland, it's amazing how many phoentic rules are identical between Irish and Jamaican style of English. Makes sense the two spent a lot of time together.
I was looking for this explanation. I understand clearly when I hear Welsh and Irish accents. This is a really good explanation that you do not need to be a linguist to understand.
Thank you for your video I'm from Thailand and learning how to speak and listen to 'Patois' because I want to understand what my boyfriend and his family say. your video is helpful
This was so helpful! I’ll be going to Jamaica for a trip soon. While doing a tourist-ie trip I still don’t want to be looking dumb when I dont understand! Lol
lol Don't worry! Most -if not all- Jamaicans speak Standard English fluently. If you're white, they'll just talk to you using Standard English. If you don't understand it'll be fine! 😁
There are two sounds in English spelt th the sound in that and this and the sound in thing thirsty The first we turn into d. Dat and this. The second we turn into t Ting and tersty. And the part about words ending in th is also wrong because we say the word with as wid not wit. Because in English (because Jamaican speech is a spectrum) in formal contexts the th in with is the same as in that and not the same as in thing. The real rule has nothing to do with where the sound is and only with what sound it is in English. Just listen to how he says anything at 3:57 He clearly doesn't know what he's talking about to be honest
Im here cause I can't let the language die in my family.😭 Nearly none of me and my cousins (the grandchildren) can speak patois, barely. Or is embarrassed cause of how we have to change the tone and harshness to the our accent cause we speak english.😂 I was speaking patois when I was a kid but i was born in America so.. thats half way gone.😪 But my mommy is helping me learn and to write it fluently, she has books for me. I wont let it die and be overdriven by english.❤ Im gonna have to learn this before I learn french and Spanish.. shoot im not even as fluent in english.😂 Thank for this video! The origin and pronunciation!🎉
Was taught all these words long ago when working in kitchens with cooks from jamaica Had to revisit to teach my daughter this very unique and interesting language.
I'm loving this! You have made it very clear and understandable! I have seen other videos but I still didn't understand them. Your video was amazing, informative & fun.
The Jamaican accent(s) and patois are two different things. I don't speak patois, and I have a Jamaican accent; so do the prime minister and the people working in banks dealing with customers. Jamaican speech--including the acrolect--has been studied, and the features of Jamaican speech, its intonation, how 'r' is pronounced, and other aspects have been documented. In the long term, it does Jamaica no good to tout patois as our accent.
Many Jamaicans fail to understand that. It seems like only patois accent exists. Like if you're gonna make a video about accents, both accents should be included. I guess what he's speaking in the video is not a Jamaican accent 🤨.
I’m actually not able to speak patois because my mom raised me to avoid that but I still have a fairly strong Jamaican accent. I recently left Jamaica and I feel like I’m slowly losing my Jamaican accent. I’d hate for that to happen.
I'd like to see you continue on with the voice accent lessons. You know, when I'd try to do both a Jamaican and Irish accent before I saw this video, I noticed both "came from the same place in the mouth" when you speak, so to hear the confirmation of that through a historical reference, in really enlightening. Manners and Respect man. 👍 Subscribed.
Patwah was actually created when slaves were purposely separated base on language then mixed with others who spoke different to confuse em so they would not be able to collaborate any rebellion... However they mixed bits and pieces of these languages which were akan, igbo, ashanti and other west african languages along with those of there slave masters which were English and Spanish to create patwa/patois
I am half Jamaican and I love how Jamaican sings and I now I know why I love beach,tropical stuff so much I am half American from my dad so I was born there but I want a Jamaican accent my mom had lost hers sadly *jamaican accent left the chat* so now I want a Jamaican accent and have it naturally I will try this and see how it help me!!
Since I’m braiding the story with a Caucasian main character whose of Jamaican nationality, now I know how to correctly write, and punctuate the dialogue for their accent. Thanks to your video I can actually make the words accurate to how the authentic accent
As someone whose first accent mastered was the Irish, I now understand that all my attempts at doing a Jamaican accent sounded like an Irishman doing a cruddy Jamaican voice. Which is amazing in it's own right...if done purposefully.
Hi, I just wanna thank you so so much for this video! I'm currently working on my thesis related to Jamaican pronunciation tho, and this video really helps! Again, thank you so much!
Glad you found it helpful. In the video I should dived deeper into the African roots and how it influences the pronunciation as well.... Maybe next time..
This is a fantastically informative video regarding the Patios accent - I think it's important for others to learn one of the many English dialects in the Caribbean. This has helped for me to create a unique lesson for students who are learning a varied range of spoken English dialects. Thank you =]
I'm working for a company where we receive calls from Jamaican people and this video has been a great help for me that I'm learning English but I have to struggle a little with the Jamaican accent too. greetings from 🇨🇴 Colombia :)
I’ve met some Jamaicans that were really nice, some that were pretty rude but not on purpose (more like little cultural differences). They’re all funny as hell and good energy though
I lovee this accent 😎 so cool and smooth. Also grateful to have learnt from this video I never knew the history. Beautiful music and culture 😎 also realized some words pronounced there are like where I'm from.
using this to help me learn a jamaican accent so i can play in my local summer musical, the musical is the little mermaid and I'm auditioning for Sebastian
Thank you so much for this. I wanted to have a Jamaican Captain in my TTRPG game I am running, but I didn't want to do the "Hollywood" accent. I have to work on it, and you really helped me do so in a respectful way. I really appreciate you sharing all of this information. Definitely subscribing to learn more about Jamaican culture as well. Have a wonderful day! :)
I’m literally here for the same reason. My players are gonna go to the Caribbean and I want to have a variety of npcs with different voices and accents

Thank you for my first Jamaican lesson. I am a voice artist and I have a project that calls for a Jamaican accent. I can do it when I hear it, but I don't know about all those spelling technicalities, lol! But since I will be reading from a script, I may have to revert back to your video for some reminders... Thank you!
Greetings PJ, I am Kallifresh or you can call me freshup! Thanks for this video. I learned a lot. I like your relaxed way of teaching things. Real quality of a good teacher I'd say.
Thank you PJ, I came here because of the character Moses from the British series 'Miss Scarlet and the Duke', I wanted to know how 'au-ten-tic' his Jamaican accent is. Great video!
I'm finding the Cassidy JLU Writing system helpful in my study of Jamaican Patois. I hope it is one day taught in schools in Jamaica. I believe it will make the teaching and preservation of the language easier.
I grew up with a lot of jamaicans and being mixed white and asian who could fight Iut most of all have respect was accepted in there hoses and I remember going to my mans flat when like 15 and smoking a spliff in the stairs then trying to keep up with my mates moms hard Kingston accent and trying to hind I'm stoned she just laffed and let me go bless her
My friend is Jamaican, and has been trying to teach it to me a bit. I've been eager to learn but also somewhat frightened to do so due to my pale skin. Worried I might offend someone.. being that I am mostly Irish (granted I'm about as much of a mutt as one can be, little bit of everything in me) the idea of Ireland being a part of the accent makes me feel a little less troubled by the idea. That and my friend told me Jamaican people tend to be more welcoming. I hope this is true, I love the idea of learning about the culture as i study the accent. Perhaps as I learn I may make some new friends, and obtain more perspective.
As a jamaican the colour of your skin doesn't matter, there are white jamaicans too that are of Irish descent and they speak patios, you won't be judged, There is a viral white guy on the internet that speak patios to black jamaicans and the reactions are so genuine, his name is sidequests look him up
Thank you for the video that was really really good I really think out of all the Jamaicans I know you can probably teach me patois keep making videos I subscribed and and I have a lot of people in Mobay ice state last year for four months I’ll go back this Christmas and stay for another four. Thank you keep up the good work

That and my friend told me Jamaican people tend to be more welcoming. I hope this is true, I love the idea of learning about the culture as i study the accent. Perhaps as I learn I may make some new friends, and obtain more perspective.
As a jamaican the colour of your skin doesn't matter, there are white jamaicans too that are of Irish descent and they speak patios, you won't be judged,
There is a viral white guy on the internet that speak patios to black jamaicans and the reactions are so genuine, his name is sidequests look him up
I already listen to some real Jamaican music man, that's a vibe
Jesus loves you all, have a blessed day or night. May His peace be with you. ❤️❤️
You forgot "yaaa maaaan" 😂

This applies to many Caribbean creoles. Trinidadians do the same letter dropping etc
