My White\asian Friends Thinks That All Black People Say Aks(axe) Instead Of Ask by dm1(m): 4:45pm On Aug 07, 2009 |
1. have you ever noticed or someone pointed it out to u that u saying aks(axe) instead of ask? 2. Is it all black people that do this? 3. Is it all common all black people no matter where u grow up? 4. my friends thinks that its a genetic feature among blacks not to be able to pronounce 'ask' as he said it found in all Americans no matter how educated there are. could this be true? 5. Is this problem only found in black people? if not which race have it too? 6. Do other races have peculiar problems pronouncing some English words? if so please give example. 7. Does race or genetics have any influence on your linguistics? for eg even if you born and breed in an English country such as England or USA? Your kind responses will be appreciated and used to challenge this white thingys.lol |

Why do I get the vibe of another attempt to spite black people? Can your friends dare pronounce words with Gb (Gbolahan), or NK (Nkem), or Ng (Ngerem) without splitting their tongues into two? I wonder where the self righteousness is coming from. |

everywhere has their own peculiar ways of pronouncing things. Ignoramuses seize on these to poke fun at them, generalize and make themselves feel superior, but it only shows deep feelings of inferiority on the part of any such clown. If they saw a psychologist they'd probably blame their problems on their parents. |
