Allow me to translate:
“Good day, sir. May I inquire into the pompous attitude you were portraying? Are you not a man of your word? Give to me information regarding your whereabouts so that we may more appropriately settle our dispute. This is preferable as you have portrayed yourself as a tough individual worthy of my challenge, what with your rambunctious boasting of wealth. Do you accept?”
Yeah this quickly became cringe to type out but fuck it.

Grew up exposed to stuff like this but if I’m being honest there is slang (if you could even call it that) in here I’ve never even heard of so I was just going off of context and “vibes.”
Growing up listening to modern day rap has changed our speech recognition, I believe.
Even when these rappers make up a new word, I almost 100% know what they mean by the context. It’s strange because on one hand, it has helped me with my context cue reading abilities.
On the other hand, I find myself using slang I never thought would come out of my mouth just because it’s easier sometimes.
I almost wrote you off as a boomer but I actually completely get what you’re saying, especially about just understanding through context and experience.
Nah, I’m like 26 lol. God, do I sound that old already?
You have to realize that the rappers used AAVE. It’s much deeper than slang
Even though you’re 100% correct, you’re getting downvoted because Reddit is racist and think rap is bad.
Yeah I hope they know what they are ultimately
It’s because you’re seeing a creole (or dialect depending on who you ask) of another language that developed during slavery. AAVE should be considered an English creole language instead of a dialect imo. The language has been appropriated and it’s kind of weird to hear others use so many things out of context and or change the definitions
I get what you’re saying but language develops through misuse and appropriation. The English language wouldn’t have half its words if not for French, Danish, Anglish, Gaelic, Spanish, the list goes on (ie everyone that’s ever migrated to the British Isles, even the Romans influenced the language and culture heavily). Like when you think about the word “wicked”. It’s original meaning is something evil, like the Wicked Witch of the West. But then it gets flipped around and used as slang by teenagers, now the word means either evil or cool depending on the context.
Language is very cool and it’s definitely something that changes and molds depending on the people speaking it. Very beautiful phenomenon.
You’re right but the problem I am pointing out that there’s a stigma with AAVE speakers speaking AAVE some say it’s broken English and they racialize it. They currently are framing aave as gen z language. To make this normalize is like a gentrification of language
This was my response to another comment:
It’s AAVE. It’s actually hotly debated if it should be considered as a dialect or a creole language. Look up Gullah gee chee .
Think logically: all of the slaves that came here were apart of different cultures and tribes. These tribes had their own cultures and languages. They were not allowed to read or write so they form of English they learned was overlapped with the language structures they were used to (imagine a non English speaker learning the learning through informal means (spoken language is really never informal because language evolves overtime naturally) there’s many many features that constitute it as being it’s own language in my pov BUT it is debated as only being a dialect.
Many black Americans who do speak AAVE are often ridiculed as speaking broken English when that’s not the truth. Many black Americans also can code-switch between AAVE and Standardized English. The whole talking white phenomenon or speaking properly is within this topic as well where many or shamed for either speaking standardized English (ie talking white) OR not speaking properly (proper English/standard)
If you think about it it makes a lot of sense due to the historical context of who to look out for or who was in the group and who wasn’t. Oftentimes if not most times, black people know both and code switch with AAVE being the primary. the big part I left out is the racism involved.
Quite interesting stuff when you think about it. I encourage everyone to research it
Remember the Romance languages would be seen as broken latin to Latin speakers. Language evolves over time
One of the bigger contributors to the English language is Dutch, believe it or not.
Forgive me if I'm uninformed, but how is AAVE not slang? It sounds like gangster speak to me.
in the south and being in hs helps alot. its like saying how are you it just makes sense
wtf does 10 toes mean
From my extensive research (googled it and just glanced at whatever seemed to make sense) I believe it means “ten toes on the ground,” ie standing, presumably in a fighting stance.
No, standing ten toes on something mean you standing solid on what you are doing or have said
I’m ten toes down means I’m “all in”
It’s not a fighting stance it means you are serious and really bout whatever shit you talk
thats so stupid
He didn’t know read comment above
It means like one on one
Ten toes is one person unless one of them has no toes but how would they know. It's got "footprints in the sand" vibes
It means square up lol
You are either too old, stupid, or sheltered and young . I’m 47 an have known what ten toes/ ten toes down has meant for years. When I was young we’d say standing toe to toe, then sometime in my 20’s you heard people start saying ten toes or ten toes down.
Oh shit it must be the guy from the post
Nah, I’m not a keyboard warrior, I don’t threaten people online.
If I didn’t get the original message, does that mean I’m old now?

I appreciate your commitment to the cringe
*dost thou accept
Andrew Jackson on his way to duel another mf instead of being a good president:
Honestly I thought they were saying dude was on steroids and was trying to get them to admit they're a cheater.
Bro is historically accurate
Thank you. I unironically didn't have a clue what I just read. I did suspect it was essentially "Say that to my face and not online and I will assault you" but I wasn't 100% sure.
And now I'll translate to Joe:
Hello there. Why were you acting like that? Are you serious dude? Tell me where you live so we can meet up and settle our differences. I'd say since you're such a tough and rich guy, you're quite fine with my challenge. So, do you agree? Should we meet up?
Thank god, I couldn’t understand what this guy was yappin about
You're like that lady from Airplane! that speaks jive.
Ah I’ve played the roll of translating my countries lesser people before, I am well versed in the language of roadman
Thank you i genuinely didn’t understand a fucking word

I am from the hood. He clearly wants OP's toes.
Slide those 10 toes inside me bro
Quentin Tarantino next movie plot leaked
Okay, I kind of thought this was Dark Souls related. That makes more sense. :p
He’s saying he wants to fight him.
With ten toes
“Since you so broly”
This dude mannnnnn 🤦♂️
nah man i’m more Goku than Broly
Nah I'm more of a Goku tbh
Why !? broly is literally the strongest Saiyan in the universe. His chi levels were over 9000 !
Power level. Not “”””chi”””” levels.
Ki (気, "Ki", lit. "Air, Breath"), also known as chi/qi, Youki (妖気, Yōki, lit. "Bewitching energy")[1] or simply energy (エネルギー, enerugī), is the life force energy used by Dragon Ball characters.
What the actual fuck is he trying to say, also what made him send something this depressing?
He said some shit like “goodbye Reddit, it was fun while it lasted” to which I responded simply “bye” which prompted him to explode into a blind rage lmao, is there a way to link the comment thread?
You should be able to click a share button to find a copy link button then hit the little chain by the emoji button to put it in
It’s not letting me send the link bc live links are against subreddit rules apparently, but respond to this comment if you want me to dm it to you
Dont send it to me

You had a full on argument with him that started with the both of you telling each other to suck each other's cock and balls and call each other stupid in different ways.
Yeah bro it was dope as fuck
My god. He did this shit over the stupid fucking API protests.
You should have added that that makes it an even bigger reddit moment 💀💀💀💀
Bro went from little guy who is protesting reddit to fake gangster who would get his shit rocked in five different ways
I think he was asking for their location so they can fight. I'm not sure though.
That’s as far as I can get with this. Like what does, “We can handle this 10 toes…” even mean?
I have no idea
Being “10 toes down” means you are fully committed to something, giving it your all. He’s basically saying “let’s completely settle this”
Lmao Broly… I’m going to have to start using that terminology
“Man swung on me raight, so I went Broly”
Is this in English?
I believe it’s a more obscure dialect of English called moronicus
I speak Mononicus, and this is actually a southern variety of Moronicus called dumbasito.
“There’s just one thing I don’t understand. The thing I don’t understand is every mf’ing word that just came out of your mouth.”

This is not AAVE, this is someone pretending to be "from the hood" from stuff they've seen on the internet lmfao
Wrote a ChatGPT essay to explain this dude’s shitty English lol
It's retardation, stfu.
Sounds like you're trying to excuse Bad English because the speaker is black.
Bold to assume this isn't some white suburban 14 year old LARPing
Explain bad English
Bad
Sounds like you’re a moron who doesn’t understand neither how slang works nor how dialects work
Sounds pretty fuckin stupid lol, I’m cool with normal English.
Define bad English
Propa Bri'ish way.
Brits have thousands of insults that are significantly more entertaining than enquiring "What's up pus*y"
(I would never have censored that but Automod removed my comment lol)
Nah it ain’t British.
I’m british and cannot understand a word of that
You know at first I was on OPs side, but then I looked at his comment history and now ima bout ready to throw 10 toes inna real way, feel? Big man well we bouta blop blop up in a teacup yeah purple monkey dishwasher.
Bro I’m ab to put my ten toes up your ass (purely for pleasure purposes)
For the low, low price of all your money, I will prevent future threats to your wellbeing
what the hell is he even saying is he asking for feet pics?
no he’s just thinks he’s in the hood or whatever
i’m in the hood (of an industrial laboratory venting hood used to keep caustic chemicals from killing chemists)
Ten toes means ten toes down. All ten toes touching the ground, not running away or backing down. Basically just being committed.
Op out here being broly 😤
bro yall went on for do long in that comment section this guy is weird😭
It was very humorous
I woulda just replied “you tryna fuck?”
Suburban Kid larping
Nah he cooked you

100%
This guy's got a foot fetish
Google translate has failed
I’ve never heard someone say “broly” unironically
He made it sound like it’s an intro to some shitty foot fetish porn video
bro is tryna play footsie
“You so broly”. As an active dragon all fan, I am stealing this.
Bruh is using DBZ references to throw smoke lol. 🤓🤓🤓🤓
The copy posta is nice. That's at least a year and a half of smack talk. Pretty funny to see.
Had this once like 6 years ago just send the guy my address. Go on then turn up with your samurai swords in your mums car dickhead.
Give em some random address then watch the news in that area for a drive by shooting
This happened 22 days ago and he has since stopped responding to me lol

Dude this is fire ong
Most inconspicuous fed
May I know why he's so pissed at you?
I’ll send you the comment thread in a dm
The fuck is he even saying?
I have finally reached the age where I dont know what the fuck people are talking about. I need a translator just to use the internet
what would broly even be as an adjective
Broly is a villian from Dragon Ball Z. A legendary super saiyin. So someone attempting to intimidate or threaten with displays of pugilism.

I'm now convinced that there is a separate West Germanic language called "American".
I must say, Q doesn't talk but this does sound like something they would say.
This sounds like Michael Scott if he tried to be tough with Darryl
Ask him what state hes in then pick a random address and send it to him.
I went to the guy's profile and he appears to be spamming the same goodbye reddit message everywhere for some reason
Oh, this guys wanted to fight. I thought they were asking for feet pics

Brother is a reddit gangster. I’m beleaguered.
Some of these might be words
I don’t know man, I hope you slid him that info. He seems kind of tough.
It depends on how you read it, but is he offering to fight, or offering his sexual services?
he’s speaking a whole new language
If someone finds this guy's username, he's about to be nuked off the site entirely lol

This person is speaking half English half Gibberish
The interwebs version of Monty Python RAF banter?
Weird way to ask for feet pictures but ok
did you insinuate that you had sex with his mother, after beating him in a CoD match? Because this is how that reads lol

As a wise man once said, “those are just words you’re just saying words”
“You bout it right slide the info” -🤓🤓
