Commonly mispronounced words

I don't consider Ebonics to be a whole and freestanding language. It's like the difference between the English spoken in the British Isles, etc, and the English spoken in the US, but I can at least understand what the British are saying.

Adding the prefix/suffix/something-ix "-izz" [and various forms such as "izzle", "izzouse", etc, doesn't constitute a whole language. It's just a form of heavily butchered English that is also offered as a college course at certain colleges (a fact that makes me seriously ill).
