It’s not that, it’s that typing “should of” literally makes zero sense.

Professionally speaking, it is. You don’t want to make simple mistakes like that when communicating with a customer or your boss/coach/etc. It’s simple to make the mistake bc that’s how it *sounds* but, professionally, no. Even in communication with your professor/instructor

And it's 'different from', not 'different than'/'different to'

In a reply, you said it sounds stupid verbally as well. In typing, I agree that you should use proper grammar. But bashing the way someone pronounces it verbally is still wrong

Aave doesn’t account for typing “should of” when meaning “should have”

It sounds very similar to the contraction that’s the only reason

i think it’s a mistake to call this aave

to my knowledge and what i have been exposed to in my lifetime this is in fact common in aave as well as less developed areas of the country (let’s say this is currently in the usa). these two do NOT always interfere with one another but cultural backgrounds influence a person speech as much as education.

this is not the same. you are saying should’ve, not should of. should of is not anything in english, but gonna is an actual contraction of “going to” like should’ve is “should have”

why are we advocating for a decline in literacy

this attitude of feeling like no one should ever correct you is literally causing people to be dumber. why is the first reaction to being corrected “you’re policing people”? is it wrong for me to want my constituents to be well educated? is it wrong to fill in peoples’ gaps in knowledge? as for the tone of the post, it’s people who LOUDLY don’t care about being wrong who are an issue, because they refuse to learn or grow and then they spread their own mistakes to learning children online

how does one differentiate a common mistake made by many but not all people in one region from actual aave? i promise i am actually trying to understand, i just truly feel like this is a result of an educational situation rather than cultivated language

well from what i am seeing, op is using dog whistles to speak about something that can be caused BY cultural exposure or poorly funded education and that comes from a place of privilege. there are better ways to word this post.

Either is fine I think. Someone saying “I can go lower” or “I can’t go any lower” they are both negative/dismissive connotation

which dog whistles? this seems like a crashout i’ve seen before about there their and they’re. while educational differences can cause cultural differences, i don’t know that Should Of is quite an aave term though because it’s not a mistake that’s exclusive to black people and isn’t something that stemmed FROM the black community. it’s a very widespread grammatical misunderstanding that comes from not thinking of the spelling of the word when speaking
