This style of English, African American Vernacular English (AAVE), is often considered \u201cslang\u201d or \u201cstreet-talk\u201d. However, are you aware that research indicates it is a unique dialect of Standard English and that it has its own rules of grammar and syntax?<\/p>\n<p>Attendees will learn about the main features of this dialect and engage in practice sessions to see how this dialect impacts the work of ASL interpreters.
