You may be asking whether you are the only one who is in this situation. Your parents or grandparents are from Haiti or any French-speaking country, yet you can not speak your mother tongue. In the case of most Haitians, there are two languages they have to learn. Unfortunately, you are not alone. Many Haitian Americans or Haitian + any other groups never get to learn both Creole and French. Most of them may speak Creole but not both of them.
When it comes to those who speak French only, they may not have had any opportunity to learn Creole. This is why Le Mot Just En Créole exists to help you bridge these two languages.
Créolophones can learn French. Francophones who want to learn Creole can learn Kreyol too. So our work is cut out for us. Thanks for wanting to be part of this exciting journey!
