EBONICS ETIQUETTE

*Any words ending with the letters TH is pronounced F. ex:strength - th + f= strengf

(어느 단어든 TH로 끝나면 F발음이 두드러진다.)

*Whenever possible cut and paste words. ex: come + talking + about=comtalbout

(가능한 단어들은 모두 자르거나 붙인다)

*Add "s" to the end of words that you know don't need an "s". ex:mouse + s=mouses

(복수형은 그냥 S만 붙인다는 말인가)

*Remove letters from words. ex:throw - r= thow

(단어에서 글자를 지워버린다)

*Remove "er" from the end of words, and replace them with "a". ex: hooker - er + a=hooka

(단어의 'er'을 지워버리고 ‘a’를 들여놓는다)

*Add "ed" to any verb to make it past tense. ex:saw + ed=sawed

(모든 과거 동사에 ‘ed’를 붙인다)

*If the sentence sounds correct, start over you must have made a mistake.
