Have you been under a rock for the past 5 years because since like COVID "ahh" was all over TikTok and since around 2021-22 it became so common y'all can't escape it.

Its literally aave. It was then co-opted by a bunch of non black people who dont understand how to use it, overuse it, or dont even know what its referring to or why. Shut up.

Tbf it's still Black kids censoring themselves. Most stuff kids come up with is so they can act grown without catching the belt. Lol

The original purpose of it wasn't to censor anything though and anyone who says it is clearly doesn't understand aave or cultural context it's rooted in. It's not done with the purpose of "acting grown". You're just saying things LMAO just sit this one out

aave also known as slang

No, aave is considered to be an entire dialect of English. Not slang. Just because black people happen to be culture makers does not mean every single thing we say, and the ways we communicate, is by any means slang and only slang. If you don't know what you're talking about just say that lmao

"African-American Vernacular English" aka slang. Pretty much white people saw/heard black people using ass. But the way WE pronounce it is "ahh". Like "face ass" would be "face ahh" It wasn't until white people got a "hold of" it now all of a sudden it's becoming a problem. Pretty much all slang you hear started by black people then "populated" by white people. Then all of a sudden it's "gen Z doesn't know how to speak proper English they can't even spell the words ass any more it's "ahh".

I agree. Does it have something to do with censorship? Can't even say "kill" on TikTok, you have to skirt around it and say "unalive" or something. Dumbest thing ever
