I don't know of any but why do you have to come to his size when I think is easier for him to come into yours. Why do you want to change your culture for a sub culture? Do you consider that's going forward and becoming a better citizen? Good luck.
Martha:
When a group of people in a city, community, etc. talk the language in a different way so that only they could understand each other from the rest of the neighborhood is called a subculture, you see this behavior in most ghettos of the cities. It is not only of blacks but other races as well, like in Los Angeles, California, the so called Chicanos. I'm not here to offend but to participate and give my honest opinion about any subject. I don't want to offend nobody. Good luck..

alberto g I think that is a very nasty thing to say. I was told that
ebonics or
African American Vernacular English is a dialect of American English used by many African Americans in certain settings and circumstances. It is not slang, as people sometimes say. Like other dialects of English, African American Vernacular English is a regular, systematic language variety that contrasts with other dialects in terms of its grammar, pronunciation, and vocabulary.
so it is a dialect not a sub-culture.
