N.I.P nah do too bad.
Q´z Frum Tha N.I.P

what up ppl?
im new to the board and i like to be part of the board.

i got a couple questions.

1.
what is the right form in jamaican for writing and saying THE is it DE or DI?
i noticed that dancehall deejays never use "de" they always say "di".whats the diference?is "de" for rootsreggae and "di" for dancehall?
2.
is ragga and dancehall the same music genres?or is there any diference?

3. whats the diference between "fi" and "fe"?

does it depend on place where the person is from on does it depend on the sentence?cause i cant understand why some say "di","fi" and some "de fe"

is it like:

Ready Fi Di Ride-Says someone who is from part A. of jamaica
Ready Fe De Ride-Say Someone who is from part B. of jamaica
Quote:
3. My Mother taught me to MEET A CHALLENGE.
"What di backside yu thinkin'? Answer me when me talk to you...Don't
talk
back to me!"

4. My Mother taught me CONSEQUENCES.
"If yu run cross de road an' cyar lick yu dung, a goin' kill yu wid
lick."
look that person uses "di" and "de" even the poster talks about the same person.
so whats the deal? why is it "di backside" and "de road" why not "di road"?

each one teach one.

N.I.P
