‘Reggae’ - etymology ,

some says that the word ‘Reggae’ is derived from the rhythm of dance (rege〜,❗rege〜❕)

there is also a theory that the etymology is derived from the Patois−（jamaican English) word 　‘quarrel’-（ rege, rege),

and （streggae ＝convenient woman）, and regular people,

there are various theories about the etymology ,

the people, who had many hardships, distracted themselves by dancing🎵

〜☘️　レゲエ音楽の、レゲエという言葉の由来は諸説ありますが、スラングで、convenient womanを‘streggae’と呼んでいたことと、貧困な人々を、regular people と表現していて、その事を歌詞にして歌っていた事が、Reggae musicと呼ばれる様になったという説があるようです🎵🐬
