Maitbi yu tok / Maybe you'd say:
"Ai bin bouniwan bifo bat ai bin guwei bla holidei en mi fetwan na, tumaj tjokalit keik ai bin idim" (I was skinny before but I went away for a holiday and I'm fat now - i ate a lot of chocalate cake.)
Tenk yu. Na ai bin kombak bla holidei en yu bin guwei bla holidei? Ai bin hab gudwan holidei. Buji ai bin meigum rong, yu korektimbat mi plis (buji yu bin hab enough time)
instead of 'hab' try 'abum'. Yeah this was quite a number of years ago though... so hope you are still interested in correcting your kriol in this sentence. Rach
