Ebonics

Es una especie de inglés que hablan muchos afroamericanos. Su nombre oficial es African American Vernacular English (AAVE). En 1996 en Oakland, California, fue reconocido como una lengua especial y fue aceptado en los trabajos escritos de los estudiantes. Lo mismo hicieron otros colegios, hasta que en 1998 se abandonó esta práctica ante la insistencia en que los estudiantes hablaran el inglés estándar, con el fin de conseguir mejores empleos.
