About this listen

It's been said that Jamaica is the heartbeat of the world. How can such a tiny island in the Caribbean give the world some of the best music, the best food, amazing beaches and some of the fastest athletes humanity has ever seen? Not to mention our accent and the way we talk, that everyone loves, but few understand.

In this book lies the key to learning the language of Jamaica in easy to understand stories and instruction for the average lay person. Here's the best part: If you're fluent in the English language, you're more than halfway there. The experienced author brings a different spin on learning Jamaican Patois that gets you understanding the language extremely fast without the need for memorization and repetitious drills.

Inside you'll find all the tools to have you speaking Jamaican Patois in record speed. Unlock the entire experience that is the Jamaican Culture.

A Fantastic Book for Foundational Patois!

I downloaded this audiobook and listened while reading along with the physical version. This not only helped with learning the grammar of Jamaican patois but also — by listening to the audiobook— with the pronunciation of words. Cuffe is great at explaining how to properly use words in conversation and gives many examples throughout the book. Probably the best beginner Jamaican patois book in the market right now.

Very helpful

The author does a great job of explaining the grammar of Patois in a way that is easy to understand. The stories he tells are vivid and engaging. By the end of the book you feel like you know him. My only complaint is that I wish the book was longer. I'm looking forward to him writing another book.

I like how he’d repeat in English what he said in patois

Best book ever I laughed whenever I understood what he was saying in patois because I knew I was getting the hang of it now to put it to work is another story I’m a country girl so this country accent poses some problems 😂 definitely a 10/10

Fantastic

This is such a remarkable tool to learn patois. Each lesson intentionally flows into the next so seamlessly! The author has made learning patois so easy you don’t even realize it’s happening in some instances. I can’t say enough good things about this book! I love the stories he tells as well. Highly recommend this book.

Amazing!

I visit Jamaica so much that I’ve decided to get a home there recently. I have been so eager to learn the patois. Not sure if I’ll ever want to or be able to speak it but I wanted to definitely learn it. This book was so helpful! I can’t even describe my gratitude for the purchase! I understood every word I’m the Flex parts and loved the stories too! I want to get a little more fluent in the things learned from chapters 5-9 so will listen to those again. But thank you so much for this! The break down was phenomenal!
