Aha moment

At risk of sounding like a Mutual of Omaha commercial, I had an Aha! moment just a few minutes ago.
I speak a form of creole. It's my own special one, and I use it all the time!

Examples

I use German for questions often like
"Was ist das?" and " Wo bist du"

I use French for introductions like
"C'est moi backpack" and " I lo em"

Then, Chinese just sneaks in
"Can I watch a dianying?" and "I lo wi dong the play"

Latin is just thrown willy-nilly
"Quid tempus will you pick me up?" and "Amo the idea of trevelling"

Somehow, actual Louisianan Creole sneaks in
"But mom, mo travay!" and " ri a is lo flat"

Italian shows itself once in a while
"I modo got un po of help e huwa" and " io non o homework oggi"

Arabic likes to make itself known
"Huwa a libro la in his bookbag" and "enti know it?"

Hebrew comes from nowhere
"I Shomer libro la in my locker" and "Lo pa'al"

Oh sometimes, Gaelic comes into the equation
"I ithim  maiteoil for dinner."

And then when several words have identical meanings across languages they get specific meanings

Book

Katib- a practice book
Libro- a book in general
Buech- a borrowed book
Sefer-a reference book
Shu- a sketch book

Not

non- not (for a specific party or event)

bu/bat - not (for unclassifying parties)

m - uncertain but most likely not

hapana- certainly not, definitely, no possibility of changing

lo- not (generic)

What

Quid-what?

Was-what (thing)

Que?- What(did you say)

 

To be

Hai- reserved for people

shi- reserved for things

ta- used with the progressive tense

Examples

I non sikteyng you - I don't understand what you, specifically, are saying

I bat odi them - I don't hate all but some of them

Huwa ta'm vens- he most likely isn't coming

Id hapana halt- It doesn't stop, ever

Hiya lo ai ya- she doesn't like you

I hai een buachaill tres screwed up
