    Put a heavily racist Brit in the Balkans in a place where nobody speaks English and he'll be happy to see someone from Caribbeans. It's how it goes, you're happy to see people who you can communicate with more than you're happy to see people who look like you.

    But apparently not according to many of the race-obsessed people in this forum though.

    They're dumb though, Balkan people and Brits share nothing except a color while people from the Caribbeans were influenced by and have influenced British culture, language, history, etc.

    You do realize that Jamaican UK blacks have their own almost uni telligible accent and slangs, right

    Their accent seems to have some Scottish influence,
    All around me are familiar faces, worn out places, worn out faces
    Bright and early for the daily races, going nowhere, going nowhere

    Jamaican patois/creole is still heavily influenced by English, as much as it is influenced by their African roots. Balkan people on the other hand speak a Slavic language or Albanian.
    Saying it's unintelligible is a bad argument.

    Irish. Jamaican accent has influence from the southern dialects of Irish English (Cork, Kerry, Limerick, Tipperary).

    Compare to this:
