mawonaj
Definición
- The use of allusion and metaphor is typical of the way Haòtians speak and is part of mawonaj, which is the Haòtian cultural practice that got its name from the “maroons,” the runaway slaves on many Caribbean islands, including Haïti and Jamaica. The term “Maroon” is derived from the Spanish cimarrón (runaway slave), and in turn from simarron, which is a word for “stray arrow” that Cuba's Taíno people used for their own escapees from Spanish enslavement.
