A somewhat offensive term when used to a white person talking to a black person. It can be understood as racist. Though in the dialect of Ebonics, blacks say "nigga" in almost every other word. It has evolved into one of the most vague meanings I'm the English language. Not to be confused with Nigger, or Nigglet.

Get the Nigga mug.A word used by the majority of races as a term for brother or friend, similar to that of "dude" or "bro".
Mexicans call each other and black people niggas, black people call everyone niggas, and even white people are beginning to call each other niggas. Some white people i know call black people niggas to.
this is the year 2009, our president is black, and African American culture is taking us by storm. Racism is still rampant, but Nigga is really no longer associated with racial prejudice.
Although many people believe there is no difference, there is because even though the root meaning is that of ignorance, Nigga has separated itself from that legacy and established an entirely new one.
Niggas UNITE!

Get the Nigga mug.It's a word. We all know what it's derived from. We have become desensitized about it's meaning and we now try to use it as a term of endearment; which it is not, and will never be. Rappers use it in songs and suburban white kids sing these songs uncensored; yet in the presence of black people they edit the word out. What is this telling us? It's telling us that people have not forgotten the true/original meaning of the word. Using it within any race just shows complete unintelligence. What is the point of continuing to use a word that is derived from a period of time when our ancestors were in chains? I understand that we are trying to change the meaning of it by making it a term of endearment, but it isn't working and we just need to get past the used of the word.
I am a black female and if a white, black, hispanic, asian, or any type of person in the world calls me a nigger, negro, nigga, or whatever...problems will ensue.
