@bondadera @dayaswifi yeah i get that and that's where i draw the line as well, my point was more of the individual words which we might not 100% know the history of but if someone is mocking aave and refuses to change then for sure they're assholes
@bondadera @dayaswifi ngl at first i thought it was some slang form of saying "chill" bc people were using it in that context but once i learned it was aave i don't use it, simple as that
@bondadera @dayaswifi like remember a while ago when everyone started saying "chile" (not implying it wasn't a thing before but it just became like an overused word on twt) so obviously i see it, don't know what it means at first but if everyone says it then i obviously think it's a common word
@whohitcup1d @StringerChasidy and i'm tired with arguing with someone who refuses to listen to other people's perspectives which you are judging from the other side, maybe it's time to step out the american bubble and realise the world doesn't work like you always think it does
@whohitcup1d @StringerChasidy because that's how learning languages works. you adapt words from listening to natives speak and use it in your own vocab. if you have a problem with a nb person saying a word, tell them and if they refuse to not say it Then you have a right to be pissed
@whohitcup1d @StringerChasidy i didn't ask you ?? i know wtf aave is and that's why i don't use it. i'm saying you can't expect Everyone to know what it is π€¨ also just stating the definition of aave doesn't say what words are and which aren't aave it's rly not that hard to understand my point π
@whohitcup1d @StringerChasidy expect someone who doesn't have first hand knowledge of a language to know the context and history of every single word, that's just insane
also when i say *american* i mean all of you, i'm not talking about race
@whohitcup1d @StringerChasidy how can you be that blind to my point? π all i'm saying is that foreigners learn english mostly from media so it's hard to distinguish between different dialects and unless a person refuses to stop speaking aave after you've corrected them, it shouldn't be a problem, you can't-
@whohitcup1d @StringerChasidy explain to me why and what it means then i won't use it, simple as that- that's literally how learning other languages works unless you want to strictly rely on textbooks which will make your speaking rigid and unnatural but i guess americans don't know much ab other languages π¬
@whohitcup1d @StringerChasidy they speak/write and i don't always know 100% what those words mean or how they are used but i see how they use it and adapt it to my own vocabulary, sometimes they have said i'm using it wrong and correct me so i do. same goes with aave if i say something i shouldn't and-
@StringerChasidy with it and give me a reason to why not use it then i won't but you can't attack foreigners who almost exclusively learn english through (american) media where everything is mixed up anyways, for automatically not distinguishing between aave and (regular?) spoken american english
@StringerChasidy i literally don't care ab looking "cool" with using aave, i don't speak it much irl anyways but my point is, if i see a word on here that people keep using i'm obviously gonna assume that is the way to use said word and adopt it into my own vocab, if people have a problem-
@dayaswifi also that goes for all "dialects" and regions like our english is based on the stuff people on tv and twitter say most of the time so we could use british, american and australian words or sentence structures all over the place bc we've only maybe read it π€¨
@dayaswifi y'all do realise that we mostly learn english through media consumption right? so it's almost impossible to distinguish between just slang words and aave most of the time unless someone actually tells you the difference because it's all mixed up,,,
