ebonics

Frequently maligned North American dialect spoken primarily by the black population. Ebonics has strong connections to African syntax, pronunciation, and grammar, though the dialect has evolved since its advent in the early slavery days of the United States. Due to its differences from standard English, people often mistakenly believe it to be nothing but a lazy and ignorant tongue. (It doesn't help that Ebonics has become trendy amongst illiterate teenagers who assume that "izzle", an infix which was invented only a few years ago, comprises the entirety of the dialect.) Others try to assume Ebonics in an attempt to look hardcore. However, most people who use Ebonics speak it as a mother tongue, and in this way it is as valid and organized a dialect as any other.
