Does it bother you when people say "axe" instead of "ask"?

[purbeast0]

does anyone know why people do this? like what the actual reasoning for doing it is? can't find an actual reason when googling.

No I don't really give a shit. I always assume people are ignorant and if they prove otherwise I'm pleasantly surprised.

Your Google Fu is waning, my son. You must find inner peace, and realize that the word you seek is actually "Aks".

I aint did nothin.

 

[polarmystery]

Yes it's terrible and I have a hard time taking anything they say seriously after that. I think it's even worse when they know how to grammatically communicate correctly, but choose to say it incorrectly.

I don't know why some black people pronounce ask as axe, but I'm pretty sure they are not doing it purposely to sound cool.

 

[Saint Nick]

Also, they are probably doing it because they are illiterate.

It also bothers me when people add "you feel me" after every sentence. No, I don't feel you. It doesn't make you sound cool. Quite the opposite.

 

[AMDZen]

I feel you

My wife says "fixin' " a lot, I can't stand that.

but 'fixin' is proper Southern, that is different

My wife says "fixin' " a lot, I can't stand that.

So when she says, "I'm fixin' to give you some." That kills the mood for you?
