Haitian-Creole term or phrase: ki maniere ta
ki maniere ta
m.a.hamid
Which way would...
Explanation:
Even without further context, I understand the phrase to be originally as:
> Ki mannyè ta...
OR
> Ki jan ta...

The sentence being incomplete,

Which way would... ?

Hope that helps anyway. :)

P.S. I did not understand your added explanation.

Did you mean: \"Ki mannyè ta twò byen?\" or \"Ki mannyè ta byen?\"

In which case, it would be: Which way would be the best?

P.S.-2 Now I see. It seems to be Mauritian Creole, not Haitian Creole.
