Hey, Tola, I'm now seeing your comment. I took time off today to finish off I book that's due at the library.
I recently mentioned you in connection with that WHO report saying Guyana has the world's highest suicide rate. I recall you had said how your suicide prevention NGO was rebuffed in Berbice.
Now, regarding my use of the word "marning". You guessed right; I'm not Berbician. West Demerara two-thirds of my life in Guyana, Georgetown-Kitty the remaining third. In GT they say "marning" too; they used to.
