To understand Haiti, begin with its language. Haiti speaks in Creole first. Originally compiled as a practical haitian creole language textbook, Lessons in Haitian Creole with some information regarding the Republic of Haiti leads readers through everyday words, phrases and dialogues while introducing basic haitian creole grammar in clear, memorable form. Designed as haitian creole for beginners and as a haitian creole beginner phrasebook, it suits travelers, students and heritage learners who wish to learn haitian creole language for conversation, study or worship, and who are curious about the bond between the French and Creole language in the Caribbean. Alongside the language lessons, the volume serves as an introduction to haiti history and a compact republic of haiti guide, sketching key facts about the island, its people, and haitian culture and customs. Written in a straightforward, example-rich style that rewards creole language self study, it opens a window onto caribbean creole language learning at a formative moment, when Haiti was defining its identity on the world stage. Readers gain not only phrases for haitian creole for travelers but also a sense of the proud, complex society in which those phrases are spoken. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure. This new edition invites casual readers, linguists, and classic-literature collectors alike to encounter Haitian Creole in its printed form and to appreciate the enduring voice of the Republic of Haiti.
