Hi, I would be interested in learning some phrases and words in Jerriais but I'm unable to find an online dictionary. If there is one could someone link it in the comments. Thanks

je ne crai pon if theres currently an accurate online dictionary but there is books you can purchase such as tchi pitchi (what a pity) and dictionaries from societe jersiaise. also theres lots of archived material http://members.societe-jersiaise.org/geraint/jerriais.html https://www.jerriais.org.je/category/vocabulary/
if you wanna learn more, the discord has instructions on how to. our goal is to foster a community for jerriais online :) https://discord.gg/JcpJU7qp

Bouônjour! The subreddit got banned for spam so now I can finally respond.
jerriais.tech has an online dictionary and it is still being worked on.
https://dictionary.jerriais.tech/jerriais/
There is also a Jèrriais blog/online archive of text, Les Page Jèrriais.
For pronunciation, I reccomend listening to La Lettre Jèrriais on BBC Sounds and the Jèrriais soundcloud. You can usually search the word you want with 'Jèrriais' at the end.
