Talk:zamie

Jamaican slang for "lesbian". Equinox ◑ 17:46, 8 May 2010 (UTC) Trinidad and Tobago slang for lesbian or the act of lesbianism. Eg. Mary makes zamie with Jane, or Jane is a zamie queen. Both of which would suggest that Jane is a lesbian.
 * If it does exist, then it's from French les amies where the s is pronouned . I have some Jamaican relatives, although most of them have lived their whole life over here, plus homosexuality is not really the first thing you want to talk about with Jamaicans.

 * It's in Green 1998 (the huge slang dictionary), marked W[est] I[ndies]; and the Dictionary of Caribbean English Usage has "zamie-girl" meaning "lesbian", marked Trin[idad]. But actual uses seem to be vanishingly rare on the web. < class="latinx">Ƿidsiþ 06:14, 9 May 2010 (UTC)


 * I suggest, keep zami (Citations:zami) and delete zamie. - -sche 01:49, 16 February 2011 (UTC)

And the one citation on the citations page may not mean "lesbian". - -sche (discuss) 17:56, 27 April 2011 (UTC)
