my gut reaction was that this is probably something to do with AAVE but I cannot for the life of me think of an example I’ve actually heard someone say, and I was living in the rural south for a couple years where the average education is… less than ideal…
maybe it’s an ESL issue mainly? I’m almost certain I’m messing up the Spanish equivalents rn stumbling my way through a Spanish speaking country rn 😭
can you think of any specific examples of someone making this mistake? I’ll give you a dollar if you find one in this comment of mine (I’m not proofreading it :3 )
Hmm didn’t consider AAVE. Off the top of my hear I can’t. Most occurrences of the mix up that I’ve seem have been in conversations at work, or news articles.
