Notes:
You
may have noticed in some of the videos that at times Dominicans drop the
last letter in a word. This happens in many cultures including at times in
the USA. Here you might here someone say, "mornin" for
"morning". In the Dominican Republic you might here
"adio" for "adios". It is not correct use of the
language, however, it still communicates the meaning and has a hint of
familiarity between the two persons communicating.
