Sinossi

"Words From The Soul: Exploring The Intricacies Of African American Vernacular English" delves into the captivating world of African American Vernacular English (AAVE), unveiling its rich history, linguistic nuances, and profound cultural significance. This comprehensive book provides a comprehensive exploration of AAVE, shedding light on its unique features, its role in shaping African American identity, and its impact on various aspects of society.

AAVE, a vibrant and dynamic dialect, has emerged from the unique experiences of African Americans in the United States, intertwining African linguistic heritage with the complexities of American history and culture. It is more than just a linguistic system; it is a symbol of identity, a testament to resilience, and a vehicle for self-expression. This book delves into the intricate workings of AAVE's grammar, phonology, and vocabulary, revealing the linguistic artistry that distinguishes it from other dialects.

The chapters explore the historical, social, and cultural factors that have shaped AAVE, tracing its evolution from its African roots to its current status as a vibrant and influential dialect. The book also examines the complex relationship between AAVE and education, identity, and the media, highlighting the challenges and opportunities that AAVE speakers face in various domains of life.

Through the voices of scholars, activists, and community members, "Words From The Soul" offers a nuanced understanding of AAVE's significance in shaping the African American experience. It celebrates the beauty, power, and resilience of AAVE, while acknowledging the ongoing struggles for linguistic equality and recognition.

This book is an essential resource for anyone seeking to understand the complexities of AAVE, its cultural significance, and its impact on society. It is a valuable addition to the fields of linguistics, African American studies, and cultural anthropology, providing a comprehensive exploration of a dialect that is as rich and multifaceted as the community it represents.

The focus of this course is to practice speaking conversational Haitian Creole from the very first lesson. Each lesson contains useful everyday phrases related to a specific topic. 
In these lessons, you’ll be introduced to several “conversation connectors”. Phrases like “as a matter of fact”, “frankly speaking”, “as you already know” and more. By using such phrases, your conversations will have a more natural flow. You will also expand your vocabulary and talk about daily activities, work, plans, and needs.
