  1. black english

    Black English, also referred to as African American Vernacular English (AAVE), is a dialect predominantly used by African Americans in the United States. It is characterized by unique grammatical, phonological, and lexical features. Originating during the slave trade as a mix of languages from West Africa and English, Black English has evolved and been influenced by regional and generational shifts. This dialect is recognized by linguists as a system with its own rules and should not be considered as simple deviations from standard English.
