Seriously. Couldn’t you just die happy after hearing this?
Iltenore, the way a person speaks frequently has nothing to do with someone’s education. I know plenty of well-educated people who can talk Ebonics with the best hip-hoppers, and plenty of not-very-well educated people who can speak well. And there are certainly plenty of words in English that are pretty low-class, especially when used in certain contexts. Like the N word used by anyone who is not of color. Or a certain six letter word starting with F and ending with AGGOT that seems to have contributed to a spate of teen suicides lately.
