Why do some people put a comma and phrases like "I like it, too".

Why do some native speakers say "I like THEM girls", "You've got THEM guns" and so on.

Are these phrases incorrect?

The second one is urban slang and it's incorrect.

Você fode a mamãe.

>"I like it, too".
they are stupid idiots
>Why do some native speakers say "I like THEM girls", "You've got THEM guns" and so on.
not grammatically ideal, mostly used in a lighthearted joking or hyperbolic way, like pic related

Is "I like it, too" correct? It sounds stupid and wrong.

>Why do some people put a comma and phrases like "I like it, too".
They're dumb


>Why do some native speakers say "I like THEM girls", "You've got THEM guns" and so on.
Imitating African American dialects usually.

>it's incorrect
incorrect. There's a dialect of American English called AAVE (African American Vernacular English) that can affect the tense of certain words, like 'them'. Here's a good video about it: youtube.com/watch?v=pkzVOXKXfQk

Yes, it's correct with or without a comma.

depends on context, but if you use a comma like that people will think there is something wrong with your brain

It doesn't matter if it's grammatically correct in some obscure dialect no one cares about. Everyone here is learning and speaking either Standard American English or Standard British English. "I like them girls" is incorrect in both.

Para de postar essa porca rosa e se olha no espelho, seu amarelado 20% indio.
Para de achar que você é branco, porque você não é.
Para de ficar chupando o pau de gringo achando que eles vão te aceitar, porque não vão.

You say you've got them guns but i've never seen you bang
You say you've got them drugs but i've never seen you sling
You say you're in the game but i've yet to see you play
You say you're going hard but nobody feels the same

It's the difference between "Let's eat, Grandma!" and "Let's eat Grandma." #CommaNeeded

No it's not.
"too" isn't a noun so no ambiguity is created.
Therefore a comma isn't necessary.

In addition to the second set of examples being incorrect, the examples would be used to convey different meanings.

"I like it, too." would be used to express that the speaker is agreeing with someone, not as a statement on its own with no context.

>"See that bouquet flowers? I like them," said Billy.
>"I like them, too," agreed James

Saying "I like them girls." is incorrect, but it's simply the misuse of the proper pronoun/determiner form. This technically incorrect phrase would be understood as a statement of observation on its own, though, unlike the first example (which would only be used as a reply).

>calls me low IQ
>has never heard of vocative comma

>black speech

>brown people in brazil associate learning as a strictly white thing and consider it bad

This is not incorrect.
Our brown people are like your black people.

You should've ignored him like I did.

Too, is not a name. That is not a vocative comma

I will fuck you in the ass, you'll see.

there are no rules in english unless it's for a test

I'm not talking about that. He should've used a comma in his own sentence.

It's correct with or without one though, that's like saying an oxford comma is necessary when in reality it is redundant (and stupid) in the vast majority of cases

It's just style. In the past commas were used a lot more, these days it's only vital to use them when there's true ambiguity. I didn't absolutely need to use one in the above sentence, for example, or in this one. Though for formal writing you should use commas to separate persons and clauses at the very least.

I too want to ask something closely related to this. I have heared ‘THESE books’ and ‘THOSE books’ but until very recently I haven’t seen English speakers saying ‘THIS books’. Is that grammatically correct?

"This books" is definitely incorrect. Unless the full sentence is something like "This book's good"

>"This books" is definitely incorrect.
Does that apply to any other plural nouns?

Yep, this and that are singular. These and those are plural.

Now all is clear. Thanks.

It can add emphasis, pause, or make what is being said more dramatic depending on the context. But this is assuming it is being read, no one speaks out load like that.

>nigger blabber

What about double negatives in "You don't need no woman". Does it mean you do need a woman, or is it the other way around?
