Why do (black) people keep saying "conversate"?

[Emperor Sol]

Y'all know that that's not a word right?

It's "converse", not "conversate".

I've only heard this come from black people

 

[msims]

Because "converse" is a more boringer word.

Let me ask you some questions:
-The people who you've encountered who use this term--are they college educated?
-Do they read anything that isn't a magazine or blog?
-Is there a bookshelf filled with books that have been read in their parents home?
-How many hours a week do they spend browsing worldstar?

Irregardless, I could care less. It's the same difference
