GENERAL: Caribbean phrases

[Rebekah Olson <olsonrg@EARTHLINK.NET>]

My staff is putting on a play for the students and it is based on an Anansi
story set in the Caribbean.  We would like to include some authentic phrases
from a country in that area such as the equivalent of "Oh!"  (expression of
surprise) and a greeting (as in "Good day" ) as well as something that
indicates displeasure or disappointment.  Also, we are having a friendly
discussion of how Anansi's name would be pronounced in the Caribbean.
