personally I believe that Ebonics, Spangilsh, Konglish are reduced forms of the English language. English had it's origins in Europe and it was used and still is the common language in use in different regions like Scotland, Ireland and England. They have distinct dialects and cultures and they are not afraid to say so. before Blacks, Asians, Mexicans........., spoke English as there main common language they had and have their own language and different dialects in the different regions of their countries. When the U.S. was discovered and all these different groups came here they brought their language, culture and traditions. However they assimilated meaning they adopted English as their primary language regardless of their origins. I have Dutch ancestry but i don't go around speaking Dutch or celebrating every Dutch holiday, it's a fact of my family history which I'm proud of . When people from other countries come here and instead of assimilating meaning, respect the traditions and laws of this country by learning English and making it the primary means of communication they instead decide to brake it apart and come up with your own version of English and name it Spanglish or Ebonics or whatever because they still feel linked to their mother land and want to feel connected. Nothing wrong however don't expect that new form of lengo to be accepted as a language meaning with it's grammatical rules and regulations or to be toughed in schools The English has are rules and regulations that form and are the "frame" or skeleton of any language it's what makes it unique and beautiful. When cultures fuse and decide to come up with their own interpretation of the root language than it should be treated as a transplant with caution and if rejection occurs don't be surprised because there are from different tissues meaning backgronds.
