Nice try, Honey Bunch.Believe it or not, after three hundred plus years, ebonics is a dialect that pulls from West African phonemes, the simplification of irregular verbs and sounds used in creole languages, and 1700's southern accent, among a lot of other things I have forgotten. Why "ax" instead of "ask?" Did you know that by the time we are one, we no longer hear the sound combinations our language doesn't use? In West African languages, "sk" isn't used, so Africans literally didn't hear it. The closest they had was an "x." It's the same with Japanese not being able to distinguish between "l" and "r."Bullshit.That's not ebonics. Ebonics is fascinating. It's .... well, look into it sometime.I hear Ebonics live at work...It will always be a thing.
too bad. You'd sound smarter if you spoke standard English

Then I ask them to explain the above “conversation” and they explain that a White man will never understand.
Oh, I understand.
Ebonics is poor grammar and syntax.
I grew up in Brooklyn.
When your grammar hero is Al Sharpton, who insists a riot works better than a High School education, you wind up speaking Ebonics and making minimum wage.
