  • J'ouvert (dʒuveɪ) werden große Straßenfeste genannt, die jährlich als Teil des Carnival auf zahlreichen karibischen Inseln (hauptsächlich den Kleinen Antillen) abgehalten werden. J'ouvert ist eine Ableitung des antillen-kreolischen Begriffs jou ouvè, der wiederum aus dem französischen Begriff jour ouvert (wörtlich „offener Tag,“ im übertragenen Sinne „Tagesanbruch“) abgeleitet ist, da das Fest gewöhnlich zu dieser Zeit beginnt.

J'ouvert is a gallicization of jou ouvè (IPA: [ʒu uvɛ]; jour ouvert in standard French), the French Creole term meaning "dawn" or "daybreak", as this is the time at which the celebration is typically held.
