“Sup’’? ‘’Ain’t s**t dog’’. Or ‘’Ain’t s**t n*****r’’.

This is an example of the subset of dialects that rang from hood to hood.

Sorry, typo. I meant to say ‘’range’’ from hood to hood.

Ebonics, while not exactly a new form of American slang and colloquialisms is a pretty well established now in American speech. I suggest we form some sort of Free Republic Commission For The Study Of and Advancement of Ebonics And How It Relates To Modern Day Paradigms Of Diversity, Equity And Inclusion. We could make a ton of money in getting grant money.
