A photo of a book which 'captured' the difference between Standard American and African American English, is making rounds online. 

The difference according to the author of the book was mainly in word pronunciation and writing. Here is a photo of the book on the difference between Standard American and African American English below;

Africans should learn to speak their native languages better instead of comparing themselves to their Africa brethren they sold for pieces of mirror. Sorry if i sounded harsh.

Enjoy my siggy

True. African Americans be like "I text you" instead of I will text you.

Other examples of African american English are

# I ain't got no kids yet

# We was there.

# You ain't _fucking no pussy tonight.

Unbelievable, Can this be true? Nigerian pidgin is even better. Despite the fact that English is their primary language. Maybe they are trying to mimic Nigerian and the Jamaican over there.

If i decide to post black american english eeh nairaland go ban me for 1week

It's just a way of telling the world that an American is not the same as an African-American. With perhaps the former superior to the latter even in spoken and written English.

The sooner Africans get over "being sold for a piece of mirror", the better for them.
English is global and that was the basis of my comparison.

That said, English has come to stay and Africans learning their languages changes nothing! How far can it spread?

We were here / we was here

So true

You have good points about letting the past be past and about English being a global language. That i agree to but i don't like seeing blacks from different places going at each other' neck. We don't have to compare ourselves to other africans to feel good
