Currently, this article cites a sentence from a YouTube video "Fix up youself, put you shirt in you trousers, you look like a yaga yaga" [sic]. This was inserted by User:Mmalc in two steps: 1, 2. I think the you should be replaced three times by your; and that the [sic] refers to the "yaga yaga", not the you. However, my modification was reverted. In the soundtrack of the video (at 0:45), it's not clear whether its a "you" or a "your", at least for my ears – but I see no reason why it should be a "you". What do you think? --Cyfal (talk) 20:14, 28 May 2020 (UTC)Reply

Thank you for your explanation with the link. I've looked into Jamaican Patois and Jamaican English before, but there I didn't find something about the you. --Cyfal (talk) 17:42, 29 May 2020 (UTC)Reply
