How do you say are welcome in creole?

"Are welcome" isn't a common phrase in Creole languages. The direct translation would be awkward and not used in everyday speech.

Here's how you might express the idea of welcoming someone in different Creole languages:

Haitian Creole:

* Bienveni! (Formal welcome)

* Akeyi! (Informal welcome)

* Ou byen vini! (You are welcome!)

Louisiana Creole:

* Bienvenu! (Formal welcome)

* Akeyi! (Informal welcome)

* Ou bien vini! (You are welcome!)

Jamaican Patois:

* Welcome, yuh!

* Welcome, mon!

* Welcome, bredda/sista! (Depending on the person's gender)

Senegalese Wolof:

* Bëj-na! (Welcome)

* Nàngu! (Welcome)

* Dama ngir! (Welcome)

Remember: Creole languages vary greatly in their vocabulary and pronunciation depending on the specific region and dialect. It's always a good idea to ask a native speaker for confirmation.
