that dialect gets no response from me. I will repeat it back to them and ask them what it means.

Along the same lines.... my wife and kids text me with the shorthand texting jargon, “cul8r” and whatnot. I reply back to them to type in english because “gon 2 store, BRB” is not a sentence.
The english language the way my folks taught me does not exist anymore.... especially the urban dialect. They want to be taken seriously but can’t speak proper English.
