  2. Mommy I am Ghanaian I was born in the uk I’m 47 now you have cleared up a lot of things for me I was brought up amongst plenty Jamaica some good and some bad but I always knew the language had a connection… Blessings

  3. Why would the slave bring a fruit that they don’ t have use for such as Ackee? As far as I know Ghanaian or Nigerians don’ t eat Ackee . They told me they use it to throw at wild stray dogs.

  4. This language is Coromantee, an English-language term for enslaved people from the Akan. Formerly the mother tongue of the maroons and heavily influenced both Jamaica and Suriname grammar.
