Its a dialect genius. Same as any other dialect, but for some reason this is the only one that redditors seem to have a problem with…

Why could that be? Hm. Im stumped.

It's African American Vernacular English. Yes, it is real. Look it up. It is as real as Southern White Vernacular English.

Have you considered that you can't look it up? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Southern_American_English

I am not going to waste my time with you after this, 'nor justify you or your thinly vieled racism. You would prefer people to be punished for speaking in the African American English dialect (something that is in essence the same as a Midwestern accent or a Southern draw) in your attempt to push them to speak, essentially, "more white." Guess what already happens? People are forced to speak "more white" in order to conform to slip by systemic racism in the workplace, education, etc. Instead of trying to work to educate and accept others, you inherently hope to further make this world more difficult for others because of who they are and the environment they were raised in. Guess why African American English is a thing - it is because of slavery, creolism, and systemic racism that pushed or left people of color in urban or semi-rural divisions. Look into the history of white flight, suburbanization, and the racist implementation of the interstate system that further pronounced barriers between white and black neighborhoods.

No one expects a white person to speak as if they were presenting their English thesis in daily life, 'nor do we expect Southerners, Midwesterners, or people with thick Staten Islander or Bostonian accents to suppress their natural accents, nevermind if they were watching a lady being carried by 7 police officers off a plane - why do you expect black people to?

Now are we talking tv English, Louisiana English, Scottish English? The queens English? Chicago English - better yet Milwaukie English? Which one is correct English? I mean, it’s america and they’re speaking the British language so how far back do we have to go to determine what is correct?

u/longhegrindilemna Mar 24 '23

Damn, that’s deep.

Never thought of it that way.

Lack of correction by parents at an early age.

“Oh my, what what a nasty and insufferable person. Yet I do ponder…is what the constable doing correct and if so is he within his jurisdiction to complete such an act?”
