We need a Criterion subforum.
I love patois. It’s so musical and poetic. I understand it well enough and can even speak it a bit but seldom do because it feels a bit like cultural appropriation (which I don’t feel when I speak Spanish). I thought that scene where that white dude gets beat by Beefy after speaking some patois was spot on.
I do tend to sign off emails with ‘until that time’ which I’ve poached from patois. It’s a way of saying ‘see you soon’ but in patois stylee it’s a double entendre. ‘That time’ refers to Armageddon - Rastafarianism focuses on a few books of the Bible: Songs, Psalms, & Revelations. Those are my favorite books too. Like some Christian factions, they look forward to the last judgement believing they are the righteous and will ascend.
Until that time…
