It is possible you are thinking of a different word, or a different dialect of Creole.
Could you provide more context or details about the situation where you heard this word?
For example:
* What type of Creole? There are many different Creoles, such as Haitian Creole, Louisiana Creole, Jamaican Creole, etc.
* Where did you hear it? Knowing the location might help narrow down the language.
* What was the context? Was it used in a conversation, in a song, in a book?
With more information, I might be able to help you find the correct word.
