Lollercoaster Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 Well problem is I'm not really a native speaker of english, but I do understand it decently. But I cannot for the LIFE of me understand what the hell Little Jakob is saying? I tried enabling subtitles, but that just made it worse...

GTA_getaway_driver Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 Even though I dont speak Jamacian, I can understand him clearly like I'm his breda. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Masturmind Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 People whoes native language isn't English seem to have a hard time understanding Jacob. It's even worse with me, I'm Dutch. Over here, it's all subtitles, so you are used to not having to pay attention too much. I can understand him but my friend, can't understand him for sh*t. And my girlfriend asked me what language it was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonyClifton Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 I had to put on the subtitles for Little Jacob, and then caught on with what he was saying and quite enjoyed it. Cho! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lollercoaster Posted June 30, 2009 Author Share Posted June 30, 2009 He's always saying not-understandable words/phrases like: Bloodclot I and I...wtf? I AND I?? Seen? Seen what... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Restelo94 Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 He's always saying not-understandable words/phrases like: Bloodclot I and I...wtf? I AND I?? Seen? Seen what... "Bloodclot" is like the Jamaican equivalent of b*stard or something along those lines. "I and I" means 'we', (both would call themselves 'I') "Seen" is used to say "I understand" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GTA_getaway_driver Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 It's not Bloodclot, it's bumbaclot as in:: "I and I going to get that bumbaclot me breda, seen?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Algonquin Assassin Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Although Little Jacob's dialect is hard to understand, I find Badman's is alot harder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikoyan-Gurevich Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 He's always saying not-understandable words/phrases like: Bloodclot I and I...wtf? I AND I?? Seen? Seen what... "Bloodclot" is like the Jamaican equivalent of b*stard or something along those lines. "I and I" means 'we', (both would call themselves 'I') "Seen" is used to say "I understand" Bumbaclot [i think thats how you spell it] means to be cheated out of something: 1.Oh not! My girlfriend has been sleeping with my cousin! Bumbaclot! 2. Damn, the government said they would reduce taxes, but they sent it up! What a bumbaclot. I and I is a bit more cultural. It mens that Jah [The jamaican god] is within us. For example, we would normally say "I", meaning that we are saying something about ourselves but when Jamaicans say "I and I", they are also saying something about themselves, but they are including the spirit of Jah in them. Just correcting those two there lol xD I studied up a bit of jamaican when I found it hard to understand Jacob. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McLovin2404 Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Badman's speech is a bunch of gibberish seen? Jacob I get a few lines...and then I just lose it as half my braincells have died. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murcchachosa Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 (edited) Badman makes even more worse than Bitchy Jacob. What the hell does mean "Yo ma youth!" Badman says that.

Cheat Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 It's easy: use subtitles! Naw I find rasta-speak pretty easy to understand, and I'm finnish. I enjoy listening to it. Badman is whole other thing. I mean I can understand him too, but that requires like really listening. You can also use this or this to help you out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTA_getaway_driver Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 I'm dong drug missions so I can get the Rasta-Huntly that your supposed to get when you complete them. Do you really get a Rasta-Huntley? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

packardcaribien Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 I speak English as my first (well, only) Language. I couldn't understand him worth a @#%& even if my life depended on it. It really helps that you can't turn the radio off when you trying to read through an Accent as thick as pea soup... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ItsMarke Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 I understand Little Jacob because he speaks really relaxed but Badman speaks so fast I can barley understand what he is saying even with subtitles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CryptReaperDorian Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 It's not Bloodclot, it's bumbaclot as in::"I and I going to get that bumbaclot me breda, seen?" I do believe he says both bloodclot and bumbaclot. Another thing is, that to Little Jacob, everything is a Rasta. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hydro_PT Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 At first I had a hard time understand Jacob, and specially Badman. The subtitles don't help that much, because there are few English words there for me to read lol. Most of them are written based on that Jamaican dialect or Rastafarian English. But now I understand him pretty well, and he's very funny. Badman is impossible though. I don't understand most of what he says. And Niko doesn't either...

PHRobertson Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 The first time I heard either of them speak, I was pretty much in the same boat as Niko as far as understanding them went, but it didn't take long to get used to both of them. Now, I can at least get the gist of what they're on about, but I do agree that the subtitles don't particularly help, especially with Badman, who tends to say the same words over and over again within the same sentence.

Puto Bendejo Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 the Huntly-Sport Jacob gives you when you've completed his courier missions IS found all around the city, but Brucie also provides one at the end of his heli rides. its just random that you might get the same colors as jacobs huntly. (its not a rasta-huntly, really, but how jacob describes it in his phone call to Niko after the last Courier is completed: "dat rasta-huntly in dem mean colors" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
