Spanish in Haiti
Not many folks speak English throughout Haiti. Since I was in an area where my native tongue was obsolete, I naturally deferred to the only other language I know a tiny bit of: Spanish. Great, they don't speak Spanish in Haiti either. I know no French or Kreyol. Bummer. So then a few kids would say, "oh you speak Spanish?!" To which I had to reply, "Un poco..." Haha. I pretty much only learned how to say, Bonjur, Monsuier, Madame, Merci, and Arovwaw (of which I know I butchered the spellings of each of those I'm sure!)
