Nothing on Google Books; first Google result is us (second is Urban Dictionary, third is a mirror of us). - -sche (discuss) 04:35, 19 April 2023 (UTC)


 * Three Usenet citations seem to have. DCDuring (talk) 17:45, 19 April 2023 (UTC)


 * A rather unpleasant word and one of mine (2013), back when sticking a link to Usenet newsgroups on Google seemed to be enough proof (there were definitely three, or many more, because I know how I operated). Now that is gone. I have to say I can't find anything convincing in GBooks and I doubt we'd miss much by losing this one. Equinox ◑ 02:04, 20 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Based on the quotes listed at Usenet, I'm not convinced the definition is right anyway. It seems like it's being used to describe music more specifically (especially rap?). Andrew Sheedy (talk) 03:37, 20 April 2023 (UTC)
 * It seems not to be used as if by a linguist. It seems to refer to any sounds authored/spoken/etc. by a black person that the speaker (of niggerbabble) allegedly finds hard to understand. DCDuring (talk) 12:50, 20 April 2023 (UTC)
 * There are still plenty (many more than three, actually) of Usenet cites. DCDuring (talk) 12:43, 20 April 2023 (UTC)

This was deleted by Sgconlaw last month. I dived into the depths of Usenet and re-created the entry with three cites and a different definition. Einstein2 (talk) 14:49, 4 June 2023 (UTC)


 * Let's officially label this cited. --Overlordnat1 (talk) 00:29, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
