I remember once or twice on The Root they literally wrote it that way in articles-" taumbout"."He tah'm bowt, ah'm fin t'call da PO-lice."
It's been 160 years and they still haven't learned to speak. They STILL make English sound like primitive, ape babbling. We are just not the same.
Another one that baffled me was "finsta". All the articles and comments talking about my finsta. This was around 2016. I assumed it just meant Instagram. Eventually one of the articles spelled it out- it means fake Instagram. You're telling me this practice is so common among you people that you already have a slang for it that everyone knows?
I don't really have a point here, just thought it was interesting.
