QUICK TIP
A
- The Creole word wikenn is pronounced nearly the same as its English counterpart. So, Creole speakers would readily understand when you say weekend.
- In Haitian Culture, weekdays and weekends are treated nearly the same way as many developed lands: the weekdays are primarily for work and the weekends are often reserved for leisure activities.
