you naffu call dead people name.
na point pan cemetery or yu finger go drop off
anything with the dead you must do it back way, </div></div>



so you cant call them names if you are in a cemetary or you just not to call them in general And what name you referring to? There is a distinction between me saying &quot;daddy&quot; and using the name his mamma gave him

and the back way part, how that go? I need to walk back ways towards a grave if I want to visit?

everything conceivable you can think of just to it backward. That is why dead body must be carried out a de house backwards.
Phatty done give de reason.

And name is name, any thing to do with calling is name.

Re: Ole Time Beliefs - Inspired by Phatty



alright gotcha

for both funerals of my dad and granny, I would not go near the house atall atall cause other family members needed the coffins to be in the house for a certain length of time, and do them things before carrying it out feet first.

I just sat on the beach til they were done. Could not, would not process any of it at the time.
