Cunning Linguists Languages and their use. What languages do you speak and why? What do words really mean? Can you say things in one language that you can't say in another? Should there be a national language? How many languages should a person know and what are they?

Default Ebonics: Dialectic or Uneducated ? (serious topic)

I want to know totse's opinion on something. Do you think ebonics is a true dialect or just an excuse for niggers who or too dumb and/or lazy to learn proper English.

I personally think the latter. Discuss.

Uneducated, of course.

And thats a light term, really you should use incapacitated, if not inferior.

It's a dialect by the definition of the word dialect, isn't it? But the dialect is, justifiably, associated mainly with lower class and lower educated peoples.

So, that's it as far as I'm concerned. What do you think?

If you have nothing relevant to contribute to this thread then GTFO. I should thank you though for proving my point, though.

Stupid question, if you had any black black friends, now white black friends, you'd know most black black people switch from ebonics to proper english when speaking with either a white or black person. Class also determines whether ebonics is spoken among races.
