I betcha finna is derived from the white US Southern English "fixin' to". A white Southerner will recognize finna without needing to think about the meaning.

African Black Americans who are the descendants of enslaved Africans are native Blacks of mainland US. There are many Blacks born here who are children of immigrants. They are not Black Americans in the historical ot cultural sense. We are unique and different.

We are unique to the Black experience in the US and have a vastly different culture.

Yes all of the other Blacks imitate us.

It's not secret or unknown though, it shapes huge parts of mainstream American culture!

As a white American, when I hear A.A.V.E, it sounds improper and uneducated. The dialect of southern people or "rednecks" also sounds uneducated. What is puzzling to me is the choice made to speak in these dialects despite standard English being taught in public schools all over the country. People of all races in America have access to a proper education in this modern age. Really, they have for a while now. So why is it that Americans choose to speak in dialects that make them sound horribly uneducated? I've even heard A.A.V.E. used in professional settings, which was surprising. I would think if you wanted to be taken seriously or thought of in a higher regard you would choose to speak standard English. I think a lot of African Americans get unfairly looked down on because of the way they talk. The same goes for "rednecks" in the south. Most people see them as dumb because of how they talk. Is the choice to speak in an uneducated sounding dialect such as A.A.V.E. really all about identity? Is it more important than advancing and being taken seriously in society? I am genuinely asking, I am not trying to disrespect anyone. Obviously, there is a strong reasoning behind choosing to speak with these certain dialects despite access to a proper education.

@Sc0teeBe318

Lmao why are people trying to use our dialects instead of their own?

Why is you trip-in?
Even though I went to the same scoos as white folk....
I dont have a speech impediment....
I learned how to talk correct English.....
But.... I actually choose to sound uneducated and just plain stupid.
This is how I have chose to represent my entire race.
I try my best, to sound as stupid and uneducated as I possibly can.....for no reason at all,
just because I can.

@rhondac7254

No disrespect bro but should you be the one explaining this?

@SeanMichael-yt4ps

This is what blk Americans are talking about when we say we are tired of outsiders cosplaying and adding themselves into our culture and history, slang that we made for ourselves and claiming it for themselves and even speaking for us! This is why we are delineating! Where’s your culture? Not proud?

AAVE was created by black Americans not Africans nor Caribbeans please stop the tether obsession with us

We are black Americans not African Americans. Calling black Americans African Americans is disrespectful. And a Nigerian born in America is a Nigerian not a black American or African American.

@Mr.Know.It_All

The very funny thing about "ain't" is its British aristocratic roots.
Yup.
Fact check that if you will.

This has nothing to do with Jamaican English nor Dominicans at all.

But you left out at the end of each sentence "You know what i'm saying?" "You see what i'm saying?" "You understand what i'm trying to tell you?" Ke ke ke ke ke ke

The issue with “finna” is that term is regional.. not all of us use these terms we have different words . It depends on where you live in the country! I’m offended by your cosplaying! What a joke!

@blackculture314

I love this accent, been listening it since childhood in Hip Hop and GTA, Love From India.❤

@shivam7043

Finna is Southern . (Fixing to ) Common in country small towns in the south east Texas and Louisiana , not just black people.

To me, African American people sound the same no matter where they live in the Country, East Coast to West Coast, its not a matter of the spoken language, its the accent, its the same all over.
Here, in Britain, accents can change within just a few miles.
