Ebonics is a legitimate dialect in the English language as much as the English that most people use nowadays compared to ye olde English.

It has structure that sound like bad English to most but means different thing in Ebonics like:

He late. = He is late.
He be late. = He is usually late.

^So don`t bash a peoples dialect when you can`t even punctuate your own. They might be using their language more properly than you.

And when I say Ebonics I don`t mean the nizzle bizzle Snoop talk, I mean the language that American slaves developed hundreds of years ago.

But their language is a fucked up way of speaking English. They just use words incorrectly, and like in the title of this Movie, subtract words where they are needed. I don`t care if its a legitimate dialect. You will not ever see anyone of importance using this dialect in a speech of any kind.

My punctuation also has nothing to do with anything. This is a forum on the internet. Not a popular movie title. These people make themselves look like ignorant ass clowns. If you disagree, I`m sorry you feel that way; but i will bet that most agree with me.

The English you use is a fucked up way of speaking English. You don`t think twice to use contractions (which is subtracting parts of words where they are needed) which came about around the same time as Ebonics.

I`m not saying contractions are wrong, or Ebonics is correct. I`m just suggesting that you shouldn`t accuse people of taking your proper English that you learned to use from your family and friends and fucking it up, when they just learned how to use English from different families and friends than you, and have to listen to you fuck up their English.

^ They learned to speak that way because they started dropping out of school and using rappers as their icons. I don`t care if you view it as a legitimate dialect, it`s nonsensical. Worst of all, it`s not just ebonics, it`s text speak, or "txt-spk" as well.

These two new dialects are causing our youth to move towards an Orwellian-ish type of language. New Speak, is it`s proper name. It`s quite disheartening because language is beautiful, and these are, well, travesties.

@WAKEup

If you read my comments, Ebonics didn`t come from black people dropping out of school. It came from Africans being robbed from their countries and not being allowed to speak their own language so they adapted a form on English that preserved pronunciation, grammar, and vocabulary of their (mostly Niger & Congo) languages.

And as I already explained it is not nonsensical, the grammar is just as structured as the English that you use.

Don`t group text acronyms and shorthand in with a language that was made to preserve a peoples culture(that is older that the English language) which they were removed from, and beaten for using.

I think Wikipedia says it nicely:

"Use of the word dialect is often taken as pejorative by the speakers of the languages referred to in that way since it is often accompanied by the erroneous belief that the minority language is lacking in vocabulary, grammar, or importance."
