Ebonics

[Becky]

A poor excuse for a failure to grasp the basics of english. When in doubt, throw an izzle sound in the middle of any word of just string random thoughts together and insinuate that they actually mean something. When backed into a corner, you can always claim that it has something to do with a sort of symbolism or is a defining trait that makes your race great, versus own up to the fact that it is essentially laziness at its finest.

Ebonics is really the study of the rules applied to turn English into some uneducated sounding pseudo-language whose purpose is for the most part to insult and denigrate Whitey. Here is what I learned in Ebonics 1 :

[Becky]

The language of the gangstas and negroes.

[Sonia]

A variation of English entirely made up of slang and southern word shortenings. It is generally spoken in the hood (neighborhood) and has almost no defined syntactical structure. Also of note is the almost complete lack of conjugation of verbs (I be, she be, thems be, etc) and the mixing of pronouns. When spoken in any educated circles, its usage usually screams I am illiterate.

[Little_Girl]

About the LAMEST, most pathetic excuse a person could come up with for not bothering to learn even the most basic of semi-proper English.

[Tina]

A type of slang mostly used by your typical thuged-out niggas

[Sonia]

A word coined by [wishy washy] [liberal] buffoons in [Oakland] California to describe the dialect of the typical Oakland black person. They made up the word to justify teaching black people how to talk like black people, so the students in Oakland schools would pass at least one course.

[Jessica]

(n.) derivative word form resulting from the combination of ebony (referring to pigmentation) and [phonics]. An evolving form of American English popularized in [multimedia]. Once only heard/spoken primarily in impoverished urban neighborhoods, it has infiltrated American culture to the point where some of [the nations] largest public school districts even considered teaching it as part of the general curriculum.

[Marquetta]

A form of [mental retardation] characterised by inability to grasp the [basics] of [human language].

[Justin Bieber]

An effort to create a new language [based off of] the English language. Many changes have been made so that it can be different. Words that end in [oor] change to oh. Words with ing change to in. Words that are next to each other in [the sentence] are sometimes combined. Also known as ghetto talk.

[Becky]

American black English regarded as a language in its own right rather than as a dialect of standard English.
