LearnCajun 9+

So I grew up always hearing someone say these words and phrases and I don’t know how to spell them so if I was to try to type it into a sentence, I would be absolutely confused. So when I’m looking at the way it’s properly spelled I’m like what the heck is that; but then when I listen to the pronunciation, I’m like that’s exactly what my grandmother was saying!! It’s mostly nice for me because that’s what she told me it meant and all my grandparents are dead now so it’s really cool to see how it’s supposed to be spelled. Then see the words my grandmother used to say to be able to learn how to spell these things. Now I can become someone who’s not just someone who can say the words I can also write them down or put them in a sentence or make up statement and know exactly what it says, and I know that the way we pronounce it has our own accent, which is why it was always hard for me to put it together with proper French because we use the older dialect than the proper French! It makes it really really hard to learn from the words I remember with proper French spelling and phrasing and word usage. I love this app!

This app can definitely have a lot more. I think if you link up with someone like Jourdan Thibodeaux in Lafayette he can add the whole shabang! This is a great start though. We need to get these things documented somehow. With an actual knowledge base and better layout I would pay for something like this.

Look, let me tell you a lil somethin’ baw, this thing right here got me wantin’ to learn me somethin’ while I am on days off. Now instead of hittin’ Wawee’s by dat river, I sit on my couch wit a natty light in my consons learnin’ what my Parian used to yell at me when he was gettin’ the belt. Cook you some rice, Learn you some Cajun, and comme ca!
