So, ebonics has been called a language.
Did they make a dictionary?
I want to take a class in ebonics.
Or is that like saying the "N" word, and only african americans can use the language as a cultural distinction?
But that would be wierd.. I speak french and Im irish... so? what is the deal?
Is there an English to Ebonics dictionary? Since it has been declared a language?

Ebonics is not a language. Its just a more in-depth slang.
www.urbandictionary.com
I dont think they can teach you. Its just slang, changing everyday. You either use it, or your dont.

Listening to rap and hiphop, will tech you some new words. And just listening to slang of those around you.

Heres some to get you started.
Keys - kilo's of drugs
Na'meeeeean - know what i mean
Buck - Crazy, Good, Awesome

If I have been you, i could be acquaintances with people who're much less complicated to understand for you.
