Frequently maligned North American dialect spoken primarily by the black population. Ebonics has strong connections to African syntax, [pronunciation], and grammar, though the dialect has evolved since its advent in the early slavery days of the [United States]. Due to its differences from [standard English], people often mistakenly believe it to be nothing but a lazy and ignorant tongue. (It doesn't help that Ebonics has become trendy amongst illiterate teenagers who assume that "izzle", an infix which was invented only a few years ago, comprises the entirety of the dialect.) Others try to assume Ebonics in an attempt to look hardcore. However, most people who use Ebonics speak it as a mother tongue, and in this way it is as valid and organized a dialect as any other.
