New Haitian Creole Book Helps ESL Teachers Teach and Further Deepen Knowledge of Haitian Language and Culture in a short Time


Support independent publishing: Buy this e-book on Lulu.

"Buy a copy of "Learn Haitian Creole in One Week..." from Amazon Kindle

"Purchase a copy of "Learn Haitian Creole in one Week..." from Barnes and Noble as a Nook Book

Here are a few things this book will help you learn: Haitian Fruit, Vegetables and meals names, different types of meat, seafood, popular greetings, common expressions and phrases, verb markers etc. This book also introduces you to the Hiatian Creole grammar. For example, the use of articles shows some of the unique features of the Haitian Creole language. There is an indefinite article, which is used in front of the noun it modifies, and a definite article, which comes after the noun it modifies and changes form based on the sounds in that noun. Examples: Kay la - the house; ban an - the bench; bannann nan - the platain etc. Haitian Creole pronouns have both long and short forms. Examples: M for Mwen etc.. In addition to functioning as the subject of a sentence, pronouns can be placed after nouns to indicate possession. Examples, kay mwen - my house; liv li - his/her book etc.

This textbook is gradually introducing you to the structure of the language. It also provides you with cultural notes and explanations.
