First Attempt

Hello! This is my first attempt at the Jamaican dialect. I'm using the video below as an archetype. I chose it because it seemed fairly authentic and representative. Start at 1:04 (the first interviewee would be way too hard!).


Here is my first attempt. It's pretty up and down. It's hard to stay in the accent, particularly some of the vowels and the intonation. I have a long way to go!
