E·bon·ics (ĭ-bŏn'ĭks, ē'bŏn'-)
n. (used with a sing. verb)
See African American Vernacular English. See Usage Note at Black English on answers.com.
[Blend of EBONY and PHONICS.]
Also, using a double (or triple, quadruple, etc.) negative use to emphasize how emphatically you meant NO! However, it is currently bad grammar.

double negatives, eg: i ain't got no cigarettes.
this means in reality , you would HAVe cigarettes.
