Hi my friends,In today‘s lesson we are going to learn how  to ask someone questions to know how someone is in Creole
*Plizyè fason nou ka di sa - many ways we can say that 

Nou ka di - we can say 
Kijan ou ye?  Kòman ou ye?  kouman ou ye?(fòmèl) yo tout vle di - they all means ,How are you? or how are you doing? 
Pa egzanp: for example
Egz: Bonjou Mesye,Kijan ou ye? Good morning Sr, How are you?

Nou ka ajoute yon endikatè tanporèl nan fraz la : we can add a time indicador in the sentence 
Tankou - like,  
Kounya (kounye a) - Now 
jodia - today
Pa egzanp : for example
Egz:Alo Mari, How are you doing today?  Hi Mari,Alo Mari , Kijan w ye jodia? 

Kèk fason fòmèl ak enfòmèl ou ka poze kesyon sa tou – some informal ways you can ask this question also:
 Sak pase?  , Sak regle? , Sak ap fèt?  yo tout vle di: they all means  What‘s up? / or what happen (enfòmèl)....

Nou ka di tou – We can say also 

Pa gen anyen ki tonbe? - What‘s new ?   
Ou anfòm? ou oke? -   Are you good?  are you okay ?
Kijan bagay yo ye? -    How are things?
Kijan vi a ye? -            How ‘s life?, 
Ou la ?           -       Are you there?
      
Kounya,Pou w di kijan ou ye , nou itilize pwonon pèsonèl yo sann pa itilize vèb ‘’se’’ a – Now ,To say how you are we use the subject pronounce without using the verb to ‘’be’’ .

Pa egzanp: for example 
Si yon moun mande ou , kijan ou ye?   kòman ou ye ? if someone ask you how are you?
Ou ka di : you can Say
Egz: Mwen byen,mèsi e ou: I am good thanks and you / I am fine thanks and you/
 Byen mèsi e ou - fine thanks and you, Mwen Anfòm (M anfòm) , anfòm-I am pretty good/I am doing great , M pa pi mal - I am not bad , Pa pi mal -not bad 
E ou oubyen e ou menm vle di means And you
Fason popilè enfòmel pou reponn, kijan ou ye oubyen sak pase 
Common informal ways to answer to how are you , what‘s up or what happen

M Poze - I‘m chilling    
M la - I‘m there   
N ap gade - I am hanging on 
N ap kenpe  -I am holding on Byen jiska prezan : Good so far

Episode 2

Do you get tired in the afternoon? Experts say that's normal. The body has a natural rhythm that includes two drowsy periods every 24 hours, one at night and another between about 2 and 4 p.m.

So why not take a nap?

Experts say that taking a nap for less than 30 minutes — a so-called "power nap" — allows the brain to rest in a way that makes you more alert when you wake up. Research has also shown other benefits.

"We know it's an easy, helpful way to quickly boost your alertness, your concentration, your productivity, your creativity and your mood." says James Maas, who spent 48 years studying sleep as a Cornell University professor.

However, people shouldn't nap for too long, as they will fall into a deeper sleep, which is harder to wake up from.

Shorter naps are helpful for alertness and memory, says Sara Mednick, a sleep researcher at University of California-Irvine. Her research has found that naps work better than caffeine to improve brain function.

For a good nap, find a quiet, dark and cool space and set an alarm for 15 or 20 minutes.

Even if you feel like you haven't slept, you still get benefits, Mednick said. People often don't feel like they are asleep until they have reached a deeper sleep.

Short naps don't interfere with nighttime sleep, as long as they're not too late in the day. Try to take a nap at the same time every day, around 6 or 7 hours after waking up.

The only people who should avoid napping are those who have trouble sleeping at night, Maas says. Older people should be careful because they tend to nap for too long during the day.

And if you don't like napping? Research has shown that napping is not for everyone. And Mednick's advice for people who really don't like to nap is: "Listen to your body."
