Lmaoooooo this is by far the most interesting thing KZbin has ever recommended me. I’m an Asian American that’s born, raised, and still lives in the DFW area in TX. People tell me all my life that I they’ve never seen an Asian with a southern accent. But growing up with friends named Omawusala, Justice, and D’Andre, I learned my English from them. So when you said “ruh mi ma fae,” I immediately was ready to scrap. “Post up! Come on then!” With that tone that you so politely explained at the beginning of the video. And when you started talking about double negatives, I immediately blurted out “ion no nuttin” and then you said it 15 seconds later lmaoooooo. Bruh. This shiii is my entire life. Sound weird coming from a Chinese-Korean, but this feel like coming home.

Na verdade "throw shades" não é falar mal pelas costas é simplesmente criticize someone or something publicly and show that you do not respect them ou seja, criticar a pessoa falar mal dela, detonar, destilar veneno na pessoa.

I'd say that the most listened kind of rap here is 90's west coast/N.W.A and Eminem, because lots of us grew up watching movies, listening to the radio or playing GTA San Andreas, so that kind of music stuck with much of us. Now, at least where I live, it's pretty rare to listen to newer rap artists such as Kendrick Lamar, even getting to listen to artists like Playboi Carti is very weird.

[@whydoIneedone846]

I took AAVE with professor John Rickford at Stanford about 15 years ago. Absolutely loved the class, though it was a linguistics class, not learning how to speak it. My favorite part was analyzing a preacher's sermon and his use of AAVE throughout the flow of his speech. I very much appreciate your clarification to people that this is merely a dialect of english and not "wrong" english. I personally speak "yeshivish english" which is also a dialect and have trouble code-switching to standard english sometimes, so I sympathize with speakers of other dialects who have this issue. It is important to learn standard english however, which professor Rickford illustrated with an experiment he ran with two groups of black women going for job interviews who all had the same qualifications but half spoke aave and half standard english. The standard english speakers were much more successful. This may illustrate that some things we perceive as pure racism are not as directly related to racism as we might at first think. I mean, the reason for the lower success rate of the aave speakers might be because of racism in a more tangential way but not as directly as you might assume at first. Anyway, nice video.

[@justtiredthings]

Maybe not racist per se, but it does reveal culturally xenophobic and supremacist implicit biases. And the line between the two is really blurry in the US

[@justtiredthings]

Class certainly plays a big role too. Most varieties of Black American English are most strongly associated with poor Black people, and you find that other vernaculars associated with poverty, such as varieties of southern American English, are pretty highly discriminated against as well

[@whydoIneedone846]

@@justtiredthings Yup, totally. Professor Rickford actually believes that AAVE is most closely related to poor white English, I think he mentioned that most English that enslaved Africans would hear was from very poor whites who could afford perhaps a single slave or from white indentured servants on larger farms/plantations. In both cases these whites would be working alongside them and they would hear their language most frequently. As opposed to the wealthy plantation owners who were not working alongside them (obviously). And yes, it's absolutely true that whites with what is essentially a very similar dialect face very similar discrimination as well and are generally perceived to be uneducated and unintelligent.

In Brazilian Portuguese, double negatives are correct, its a way to emphasize the negation of something.
