That's a fun site, my cab driver gives me a hour of Patois lessons on the way to the resort. I mostly can't understand even what the letters are he's speaking so I can interpret them into something I can speak.

But really as far as I can guess you only need to know "wha Gwan" spoken as though it's one word...........WHAT"S GOING ON.

Cheers

Like so many languages, there's a great many ways to refer to the naughty bits.
