A tan, brown, or black skin tone of a race of people who are or not necessarily descendants of Africa, who could also be a native of the Jewish race. The word derives from a species of trees called 'Ebony' a tree native to southern India, Sri Lanka, and Western Africa. The term Ebony American describes a black American of whom it has not been established that he or she is a descendant of Africa, hence it is a false assumption that all blacks are African Americans.

Get the ebony tribbing mug.A form of city slang, often used in the hood (ghetto neighborhood). It's just like any other language, you have to know how to speak it in order to understand it. Often people who understand ebonics, also understand the proper use of words. Just because they can understand ebonics, does not mean that they are unable to speak "properly".
Example 1:
Ebonics: "I done ate my grub, now I best be gettin' on"
Proper English: "I've eaten my food, so now I should leave"
Example 2:
Ebonics: "I finna kick it with mah homies up in mah crib"
Proper English" "I'm going to relax with my friends at my house"
Ebonics: "I done ate my grub, now I best be gettin' on"
Proper English: "I've eaten my food, so now I should leave"
Example 2:
Ebonics: "I finna kick it with mah homies up in mah crib"
Proper English" "I'm going to relax with my friends at my house"
