Reseña del libro "Jamaicasaurus (en Inglés)"
Please note: This is the 'Jamiekan Spellings' version of the Jamaicasaurus. The Common Spellings version has a green cover.The Jamaicasaurus features 4,200 English entries and over 15,000 Jamaican results,functions as both a translation dictionary and a thesaurus. It's the only translation dictionary to go from English to Jamaican Creole (Patois) and also the only book that can function as a thesaurus for the dialect. The Jamaicasaurus thus serves not only foreigners but also native speakers searching for alternate words and expressions, recent slang, and old terms from the past. To use this book as a thesaurus, simply look up the English equivalent of the Jamaican word or phrase you have in mind to see the various Jamaican synonyms listed. The appendix at the back of the book additionally features lists of Jamaican expletives and exclamations from mild to vulgar, odd curiosities, and the local Jamaican names for 278 important species of plants and trees used in Jamaica for food, medicine, and cultural purposes (listed by scientific name first). Furthermore, and quite importantly, the Jamaicasaurus bridges the gap between the common English-based way of writing Jamaican Patois words and the Cassidy-JLU (or 'Jamiekan') system developed by Jamaican linguists to more consistently and accurately represent how those words really sound. This version of the book uses that format. It's easy to learn and worth trying. The other version of the Jamaicasaurus, featuring common English-based spellings, is also available on Amazon and features a green cover.
