Do you ever wonder where certain words come from? Well in Jamaican Slang and Jamaican Patois, I am always asking that question. I mean there are so many words that have a little or unknown origin. Some words of the words that come to mind are pickney or nyam . In fact, someone asked me the origin of the word “ bumboclat“… yikes, you can send me an e-mail if you want to know what a bumboclat is as opposed to what it means.
