I don’t care how they talk to each other, but I correct them when they talk to me. It’s building professionalism and understand how to read the audience.
I disagree with banning the words. That’s silly.
Thanks, I wanted your input on this.
I agree with banning words in her classroom is silly.
Yeah, you gotta check them when needed to make sure they carry themselves with decency.
To me it isn’t the language but more so how often they use it. Nothing wrong with “Bro” but tell me you ain’t never been around somebody that said bro 20 times in 5 minutes and you didn’t wanna smack his head off his shoulders. Even my kids, they say Bruh to damn near everything until I get ready to put Belt-to-ass.
Banning these words is a losing fight tho. They’re not derogatory or offensive imo.

There are too many young folks that are terrible at reading the room. In a place of professionalism, I carry myself a certain way. But when I’m with my homies or on BGOL, I speak differently.
I got a nephew that uses this slang everywhere. Makes some people not want to be around if you can code switch accordingly.
Baka means stupid in Japanese,if anyone wants to know....
Ban em because I grew up using slang words but it wasn't apart of how I talked all the time cause my parents,teachers,elders wasn't going for that shit.

I know a coworker that says nigga every other word. Me,a few others plus the supervisor have to tell him to chill out when it comes to that word.
Thanks
That’s what I mean. Some people just suck at reading the room. You shouldn’t have to tell that in the first place.
These seem like a list of words black people use. I'm gonna need more context. Like what color is the teacher? What color are the students? What grade is this? Each of these factors creates a different dimension for the issue. Is this a white teacher telling black 12th grade honor students how to speak? Is it a black teacher with a room full of trailer trash, white kindergarteners? That becomes an entirely different issue.
Hatin' ass teacher, but I get it. It's wise to clean up your diction and articulation, youngins.I was a teacher for one year, and those young punks made me feel like a dinosaur--mind you, I was in my 30s.
I actually miss some of those teenage rugrats.
A tweet from WorldStarHipHop.
Bet the teacher is a MAGA Cac that hates it cause they can't understand it or cause the young white kids are using it. Kids of all colors have used slang terms as far back as I can remember and it just changes over generations.
Bruh, dis bitch high key doin' too much. Bitch got L rizz. She on some censor type shit. I ain't fucked up about it, tho. I told her "On God, I know you a hater but I love that for you". You wanna keep hatin'? Say less, I got you. I'm finna low key record this shit and post up. Let the chat peep the mood. Then, we'll see if er'ythang gucci or not.
That's cap. I'm just gone put all her tires on flat in the parking lot and key her car then hit up Roscoe's. Them chicken strips be bussin', yo!

What about "I dun" and "fixing to"..
Denigrating the way people speak is a form of oppression.
When I was a teacher, I told my students that speech was like clothing.
You might sit around your HOME all day long, in your drawers, eating frosted flakes and watching cartoons at breakfast time.
You would NOT show up to the dinner table on Thanksgiving wearing nothing but your drawers.
There are multiple ways of dressing.
There are multiple ways of communicating.
Telling children they "don't talk right" is implying they are somehow intellectually and/or culturally inferior.
Just sayin.

Brah, you're out here preaching today. Talk Heavy!
In that case, you owe yourself 40 lashes.
I'm with it is misspelled, and, even if spelled correctly, is a colloquialism.
As is the term "low vibration shit".
I am not saying it is wrong.
I am just pointing out the irony in your statement.

We talking college or high school or middle school?
When he says "correct them", he means shame them into exclusively using the dialect you see on the news in the Midwest.
At least what you USED to see when we had news. Way back when.
I’m not a wordsmith, so banning words is wild to me at any level of school. When talk to me, they have to adjust and most do without me saying anything. Others may need some guidance.
Shame them? NIGGA PLEASE!
The good thing is you got the jest of my statement, mistakes and misspellings happen. Thank you for your correction, but what’s your opinion on the topic?
When I taught it was tricky to me. I did not like students talking "black" to me whatever that means especially non black students
And if you used slang? You better be able to justify it. And I would USALLY use it as an exercise for writing overall.
It was tricky because I was so against banned books and words in historical text. But I also didn't like using the n word or having a verbal crutch or lazy language.
The teacher SHOULD have had them JUSTIFY using the words
have them submit a handwritten paper on the spot explaining the etymology of the word and how and why it is used
and if it was GOOD? You could say it.
I agree. How hard is it to learn the appropriate time to use slang?. You have people who think it would be OK for one of these kids to eventually go to a job interview and call the interview bro. If they don’t know, that is our job to teach them. So they can use slang whenever they want, just not in class. I took a Spanish class in college and we were only allowed to speak Spanish. How is this any different?
Gist.
The word you were trying to spell is gist.
I think you were responding to my opinion.
Reading without comprehension is meaningless.
