Ok, I see your point, but American history is always altered. If they really told the truth about the African Americans...justification would need to take place. Us being here is evidence of a true crime....do you really expect the truth to be told? Just like in Texas they are removing the term slaves from black history...they are saying we came here as imigrants. I'm like really? We were taken and stolen from a place in Wwst Africa. Cut off from everything we have ever known...but now we are just like immigrants. What a big lie. We have to tell our own history. America is guilty and will not reperiate us until God forces them to do so.

MrCrankybird (and I'm sure you'll never see this but I have to say it just to let you know...) that was just rude! Since, I assume, you were born and raised to speak English, from the cradle, it is a much easier language for you to grasp. However, do you know where your ancestors came from? Were they from an English speaking country already? Countries that speak other languages have a very difficult time learning the English language, just as you would have a difficult time (after already knowing the English language...say about 5 or 6) you would have a difficult time learning the language of a country that does not speak English (Italy, Nederland, Germany, Africa) if you were to move there. Not to mention, Bezal-El has pretty good English in the above statement, and I bet Bezal-El knew to capitalize the word English!

The question is what is meant by "spoken badly". There are social contexts in which AAVE (African American Vernacular English, the term used most often by linguists for "ebonics") is inappropriate, but there are others in which it's fine. There's nothing wrong with speaking in AAVE among friends, or in an artistic context. But professional activities are conducted in standard English. AAVE is a dialect of English, just like Quebec French is a dialect of French.

That and the fact that infant mortality rates were higher there necessitating the importation of more Africans thereby refreshing the African character of the people. In the US our infant mortality rates were lower resulting in more generationally American Blacks thereby further distancing us from our African linguistical characteristics.

well you should learn that dialect.African american english is rich in colours and influences, it is like a dish full of flavours of the past with trendy modern features. Its too bad people are ashamed of it ( it ian't hard to figutre why) everything that has an afro tag on it has been demonised from the wi to america.lol! @ 03:48 to 03:52 that woman is mad funny.

They're not "errors" in African-American English or British Black English. Any linguistics student would tell you that. AAE and BBE have their own grammar, different than that of Standard English. And those verbs you call "a wreck" are grammatically correct in AAE or in British Black English. We need stop being so prejudiced against certain dialects and languages. Greetings!

It's almost exactly the same in a way. Enslaved Africans in the Bahamas came from the same places as Enslaved African Americans. The linguistic origins would have been the same but evolved in a different environment. We also don't consider that many people from the Caribbean were sold as slaves to the United States. That deeply influenced African American language and culture.

Many linguistic features of the Southern American dialect actually derive from African languages. Yes, there was exchange in both directions. But some specific features like "I done did it" have no antecedent in English prior to the slave trade, but closely parallel the grammatical structures of West African languages.

I do think that saying that the gullah dialect is the orgin of African-American english is way to simplistic and an inaccurate statement since the gullah community was mostly formed on the rice plantations of the southern atlantic coast and had little influence on the African-American communities that formed else where, such as in the Louisiana, Mississippi, Texas gulf coast where (True Afro)creole culture had a much larger impact. Interesting documentary nonetheless.

I think what they mean is that Black American English evolved from that. Remember the slaves that were brought over grammatical system form their language was completely different from English. That's for all countries on that continent.

It's very interesting, isn't it? I am American-born but have been abroad for a couple of decades & am w various Africans daily. I asked one recently where he's from, how many languages are in his country (36 I think) & how do they communicate, & he said a platform of English, at this point. Much less French than before.
