In Haitian Creole, neg lakay means the guy around town. It is a term of endearment given to the cutest guy in your neighborhood, street, school and the like.
Neg lakay stands out in a crowd, typically because they're very tall in stature, and you can see their smile from a 200 yards away.
Neg lakay is everyone's friend and always makes others feel like they're the most important people in the world, even when they tell the same story over and over again.
Jean-Claude: Neg lakay, wash your dishes right away please.
Neg lakay/Pierre-Antoine: Sorry dad, I forgot.
Steve: PA, why is your dad calling you the N word?
