ebonics: the uneducated way of asking "where are you". an urban expression that is usually spoken on
the telephone to determine someone's location. This expression has been used for years in the hood and has been around long before
cell phones existed.

sad attempt by Mobile to connect with a younger, "
hipper" generation. Also a rampant exploitation of the
frail elderly...these people are forced to speak in Ebonics, talk to Ludacris, wear ridiculous hairstyles, and say things nobody says like "I'm at this bangin party, yo" and "
Peace up..."

Example:
John: "Yo, where you at?"
Kelly: "THAT'S A
DANGLING PARTICIPLE, YOU UNEDUCATED MONKEY." *Slap!!*
John: *Runs off cowering.*
Kelly: "THAT'S RIGHT. Ignore cell phone commercials and re-learn what your second grade teacher tried in vain to get through your
thick skull."
And we never heard from
poor John again.

1) The question that arose mid-ninties in response to the gang-related question "Where you from?", the purpose being a greeting that identifies the
asker as a civilian and confers a subtle assumption that the person being asked is also a civilian or is not gang-related anymore.
2) A
deviation of
Standard English that asks about location.
