One time when I was working at tacobell someone came in and ordered beans in a bowl and thats all they ordered. I'm like... Just beans? He's like "yeah." That is it with a funny actsent. I know he was from mexico some where, where there are Mexicans or a place where they speak another language. And he just started speaking English.
Another time is when I went down South my fathers side of the family talked kind of funny. They kind of talked like someone from Texas, but no they were originally from Mississippi. Instead of saying here they said chere, ova they'a, and back younder. These are some of the ways they talk in Mississippi.
It wasn't like I was discriminating I can just tell the difference between a person that lives in Missouri and someone who doesn't. And how you tell is the way they talk.If their acsent isn't like mine or anyone elses they are not from or do not live where I do. That is the way I tell the difference.

Why words derogatory to women
Why are these words derogatory to women?
These words are not only derogatory to women they are also meant for men also. The slang words can also go for men for example, hoodhopper a man can be a hoodhopper if he chooses to be. If he wants to go around claiming gangs that he isn't really from then he is considered a hoodhopper. That is meant for a female also. That is my example of being derogatory both ways. This is the whole reason we are writing out a slang dictionary because some people talk in another way and some people might want to know what the other person could be talking about. Like what do the words mean anitionally. Like instead of hering and not knowing you can here it and know what it really means.

Speaking Standard English
What do people mean when they say they are talking white are black?
Well when someone says that you are talking white it really means you are using proper form of language. Which means that you are talking in the right way. If you are talking black that just means that you are using slang terminology. Which is not the proper way to talk. The proper way is ponouncing all of the syllables in any word that you say. For example the word "what up" this is the sang way to write it and how you would say it is slang also. The correct way is "what's up" this is the way you spell it and say it. The term white are black isn't really a races thing it is just a way to verify if you are black are white. Now what I am trying to say is that all whites mostly speak proper english. And most blacks have slang terminology. It isn;t because they aren't smart it is because of the neighborhood they were brought up in. The family they lived, and learned to talk from maybe they used slang. The question I have answered is just to identify people by there interpretation and their accent. I think as long as you can understand what person is saying I don't think it should matter how you talk in public. But doing business you should proper your language to show that you are educated doing business.

the role in my life
The Role of my Life
The[UCHS1] most important role in my life is taking care of my two daughters. I have to cook clean and make sure that they have nice clothes. I am the person that who has to take them to the doctor when they’re sick. When they need to take baths then it is me who has to bathe them. The reason this is one of my roles in life because if I didn't do it no one else will. It was me who decided to have a child so it’s me who is responsible for take care of my children.
Another role in my life that I have to accomplish everyday until I succeed is going to school and making sure I get all the work done I need to graduate. It is really start my life as a responsible adult. I have done all of this to get a nice paying job that will help me take care of my daughters[UCHS2] .
The third but not least is feeding and cooking for my brothers. They don't cook, they don't like to clean so I have to cook and clean for them. All I have to cook is stuff like hamburgers and fries, fish and spaghetti. That is the easy stuff to cook so I don’t mind. Now the hard stuff is cleaning the kitchen when I am done. I have to wash the dishes clean off the mess on the stove. The real reason I clean is because they like to half do stuff. For example, washing the dishes if I had them to wash the dishes there would still be food on them and that is half doing something. If I don't do the things that I do then the house would be a big mess. I love my brothers and they love me so this is why I made what I do for them one of my life roles. Such as cooking cleaning for them but my daughters is a permanent role.
Now my role in the future is kind of the easiest. It is wrapped up with the role of going to school. If I was not going to school then to get to my goals would be impossible because what I want to be requires schooling and studying. To be a nurse I have to continue with the role of my life[UCHS3] .
[UCHS1]Where is your introduction and thesis statement?
[UCHS2]Can you give some examples of the hard work you do in school?
[UCHS3]You might want to mention that you taking care of people.
