    Cause calling it AAVE is offensive to wiggers, like Eminem or J-Roc
    Not everything is a PC term you dumb shit. One falls towards casual settings and the other does less so. See booze/beer comparison.

    That's smart thinking to get your own language instead of learning proper grammar

    Didn't it already get rejected as an actual language like 20 years ago or something?

    I respect the try hard nature of alot of it tho.

    It's like how the Wikipedia page for Boston accents is fucking huge trying to explain how it works, when really all it boils down to is that those dumb fucks can't properly pronounce their Rs

    Pigin, creole and patois have been a thing forever. They are not distinct languages and but have their own rules. I mean standard American English is different from Received Pronunciation English and while it's English linguists specify American English when speaking specifically about it.

    Rotic Rs in English is only really big in the US. Irish don't tend to use rotic Rs and I pretty sure Boston's claim to fame is its Irishness.

    Country accents are just British accents slowed down with some tonal differences.

    Pretty sure Boston's claim to fame is being mad racist and unleashing Sawxs and Pats fans on the world.

    Oh and the worst traffic system in America.

    Its similar to ebonics in ways too, like instead of "we are going to go over there soon" youd get something like "we gonna go down ere drecktly"
