[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's because people come from different parts of the country. There are a lot of variations of simple things like this, depending on where you live (or are from). My least favorite right now is "On tomorrow" "On yesterday." So stupid sounding. Not sure what part of the country this is from but not a very well educated one.[/quote] I’ve lived all over and the only people I hear say it that way are middle-aged Black folks...of all socioeconomic statuses and geographic backgrounds. I always figured it was some part of AAVE.[/quote] If people are in a position of power or authority or on TV and can't speak grammatically correctly I stop caring about what they have to say. I wouldn't listen to good ol boy slang on TV either. Sounds dumb.[/quote] I stopped reading at grammatically correctly. Also, we still use punctuation in 2025.[/quote]
