: So--it's more like over-lake(s) than over-seas, right?
Yes, you might say that.
Not to Quebc I hope. I can't imagine Chris Rock speaking ebonics in french!
Hmm. Jessie. Do you think what Chris Rock is speaking is ebonics ? Is that what you hear ? Hmmm. Quebec has it's own form of ebonics. Anglosized french. Most people from France have a hard time understanding it at all. Cultures that cannot (or are not allowed to ) particpate in the main culture tend to develop their own slang. It is just historical fact. Even so, Chris is totally understandable and I've never learned ebonics.
