African American Black English is a bastardized version of English full of grammatical errors spoken by the black community in the US. It should rather be considered a language on its own, so a lot of linguists prefer to refer to it as "Ebonics."

Where did Black English begin?

Black English, often referred to as African American Vernacular English (AAVE), originated in the United States during the 19th century. It developed from the interaction between African slaves and English-speaking settlers, incorporating elements from various African languages, as well as influences from Southern American English. Over time, it evolved into a distinct linguistic variety characterized by unique grammatical, phonological, and lexical features. AAVE serves as a vital aspect of cultural identity for many African Americans.
