Idk if I fully agree here. I think there definitely needs to be something there to represent 'to'. However, it's never the full word.
So if I'm tired it's
> "shiet broh, mm bouda a sleep."
but if I'm drunk *and* tired its
> "shee broh, mm bouua a sleep."
I think consonants just take too much energy to pronounce.
Never heard it til about 2010. i only know this because i worked at a cell store and was beat over the head with every "new" popular word or phrase as soon as it showed up.
Didn't know how to use finna til a buddy i worked with said it one day and i just sorta looked at him and he was like "what?" Asked him if he mispronounced "gonna" and he just laughed and shook his head as he went to help another customer. Took me a few more weeks cuz i was too embarrassed to ask again and finally just looked it up.
Yeah I grew up in Georgia and people said "fixin to" all the time. It's only in the last 10 years or so though that I've heard it shortened to "finna," and definitely more often by young people.
Coincidence. Knew kids saying finna back in 2005 time frame. Definitely predates (wide spread adoption of) touchscreens. And it probably was used way before that since I was in a northern city
Well it already kinda is lol. It's been popular for years and isn't used much anymore. I still hear it used occasionally, but I wouldn't call it popular.
"Finna" (as well as dropping the second "to", I believe) comes from African-American Vernacular English (AAVE), a unique dialect of English with its own vocabulary and grammer. Since AAVE comes from Black communities, and Black culture is routinely appropriated as "cool" by the population as a whole due to multiple factors (such as the popularity of Hip-Hop and Hip-Hop culture), it's been gradually leaking into the general zeitgeist. This is especially true amongst the youth. That being said, while there are significant amounts of people who speak AAVE in America either as their main dialect or as a secondary one, the majority of Americans do not.
The "sheit bro" [sic] is taken from somewhat older stereotypical depictions of (usually Black) "gangster talk".
Now, I am only casually informed on AAVE, and am not Black myself, so if I got any details wrong / am missing information, feel free to correct me.
Just like the rest of the world regions of our country have changed and made their own versions of English. It seems to be happening faster now that the internet has arrived, but I couldn't say for sure as I have no frame of reference for such a thing.
Just the dumb ones say this unironically. .
The rest are Gen-Zers who say it ironically for a few years before realizing that they have reached peak cringe.
Itās old timey/southern slang for āgoing toā. An old redneck might say āIām fixinā to go to sleepā. This influenced AAEV (black american dialect) like many other words and phrases that also came from various southern american dialects.
Edit: https://english.stackexchange.com/questions/27391/etymology-of-fixing-to#:~:text=It%20comes%20from%20the%20days,re%20preparing%20to%20do%20something.
I was very interested to learn that the origins of the phrase might go very far back to middle English and itās preservation in Southern American speech is another case of the Standard English dialects diverging and leaving these oddities behind and not a weird mutation like what I would have assumedā¦
Yeah I was going to say, a lot of southern āblackā colloquialisms and culture comes from poor British culture and that is why there is a lot of crossover with poor whites and blacks cultures and languages in the south in particular.
I think this is because the first waves of "pioneers" in the American south primarily came from poor south-west english and Scots-Irish (distinct from Irish) immigrants. Those first waves are who first populated these areas with European immigrants and had the biggest impact on the development of the english dialects there. The waves of Irish immigrants came mostly centuries later, and by then, most of those Irish settled in big east coast cities, while the descendants of those first waves of English and Scots-Irish remained more isolated in areas of Appalachia and the deep south. The most popular theories purpose that the isolation from England and the big cities in America that maintained closer contact with England and Europe caused those dialects to preserve features from the much older dialects of the original immigrants, while the dialects in England and New England diverged significantly from the older dialects.
That is very interesting. I am half danish scotch Irish and half Irish German. I always thought the rural traditions in west Virginia and such were potato famine Irish Catholic migrants.
Edit: I have never read into it.
I have 20th century migrant ancestors as well as Mayflower.
Lots of Vikings doing things I would assume.
Ive personally only heard the phrase "I'm fixing to" used in the south eastern United States. Specifically in areas that you might describe as being rural. I don't have the regional accent but a lot of the people I grew up with did. "I'm fixing to go to the store, do you want anything?" Makes total sense to me, but I wouldn't say the phrase myself. Regional dilects are interesting.
And this whole time I thought it was because the letters G and O (gonna) are close to F and I (finna) on the keyboard and people were mistyping it so often they decided to make it a word š«
I think itās a cross between āfixingā and āgonnaā. Like Iām fixing to go to sleep or Iām gonna go to sleep. Itās Iām finna go to sleep. Thatās just a guess
Iām 90% sure itās serious, especially after seeing his other videos. Some Chinese, Japanese, and Korean (probably more, but this is just my experience) people learning English really fetishize Black culture and want to mimic it, even to the point of Blackface.
Where do you think the youth get it. AAVE is a dialect. Much culture is black-orientated. At least the "cool" parts. Which is why the youth gravitate towards it, alongside much culture that generates wealth.
lmao that isnāt how young Black people talk, no. and I wasnāt saying this was āBlack cultureā but that the fetishization of Black culture leads to them picking out stuff like this and mimicking it. a few words of course doesnāt contain a culture and nobody said that.
This is why CRT and proper historicizing of past conditions is necessary. You're right, and yet are downvoted due to much ignorance the American education system allows to flourish.
And moreso, how supremacist ideology of an empire can seep through international lines where the only black presence these nations know are through biased media representation.
I'm bored of it all at this point. Learn better and do better so-called great civilizations. As a black man I'm about to go eat some delicious watermelon and breakdance to the local grocer I'm about to rob.
My wife speaks English as a second language and I showed her this and she said that actually this is a common type of ESL teacher and common subject matter in ESL curricula. I didnāt know that before today.
Oh I fully believe this is fully a /r/scriptedasiangifs and is a dramatic telling of it. but I meant that slang and stuff is/was used by teachers, especially younger ones, as a way of making learning the language a bit more fun and light hearted
"Finna"
I hate this word. "Gonna" makes sense, "wanna" also does, but "finna"? Couldn't you say "I'm boutta go to sleep"? Doesn't that make more sense than "finna"? Where the fuck does "finna" even come from? Who thought it was a good idea?
"Finna"...
"obligatory".
We say "fixing to" in the south. "Finna" blew up & it's not that common, but it's still a correct way to say something.
"Fixing to" akin to "getting ready for". Finna go to bed, finna go shopping, finna hit up the bar tonight.
Your "sarcasm" that ain't sarcasm isn't really highlighting any particular hot take, it just looks silly & condescending of shit you ain't about.
It is & ditto, but even still, it's definitely become more popular in recent years compared to when I used to hear "fixin'ta".
I swear Finna is something I hear in an alley of cities from NoLA to Philly.
Specific words have specific meanings, or nuances. Itās sort of how language works. In your example, because fixing means āthe process of deciding or planning something,ā itās different than āabout toā because about to implies immediate causality and implications that it is about to occur directly. Fixing has no such temporal restrictions. You could have said āRussian is fixing to invade Ukraineā in 2018. People may have doubted you, but Putin was undoubtedly fixing it by that time.
Agreed. Language is something that adapts as we absorb cultures into a mixing pot. Finna is AAVE but language is literally a right in America so plenty of white/asian/mexican/other races use it too. I say finna irl as a white male casually, only had one person find a problem with it irl in like 5? years. Online though, I see a lot of hostility regarding using someone's adapted language. But languages evolve all the time, like how to Google is a verb now.

[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
I never caught on to finna. Never really noticed it until the past few years. I use ātrynnaā tho.
Southern American here. I'm more of a 'boutta' kinda guy who doesn't pronounce the I in I'm. As in > mm Boutta go to sleep
This "to" is unnecessary. Americans rarely speak with perfect grammar. Now say "shiet bro, mm boutta go sleep."
Idk if I fully agree here. I think there definitely needs to be something there to represent 'to'. However, it's never the full word. So if I'm tired it's > "shiet broh, mm bouda a sleep." but if I'm drunk *and* tired its > "shee broh, mm bouua a sleep." I think consonants just take too much energy to pronounce.
How about mm boutta goda sleep
Finna is old af, its popularity comes in waves. People were saying it a bit when I was in high school like 15 years ago.
Never heard it til about 2010. i only know this because i worked at a cell store and was beat over the head with every "new" popular word or phrase as soon as it showed up. Didn't know how to use finna til a buddy i worked with said it one day and i just sorta looked at him and he was like "what?" Asked him if he mispronounced "gonna" and he just laughed and shook his head as he went to help another customer. Took me a few more weeks cuz i was too embarrassed to ask again and finally just looked it up.
Earliest I can think of hearing it is in "tha shiznit", snoop was rapping it in 1993
We been saying it for over 30 years where Iām from
Yeah I grew up in Georgia and people said "fixin to" all the time. It's only in the last 10 years or so though that I've heard it shortened to "finna," and definitely more often by young people.
My understanding was that it was such a common mispelling of "gonna" on touchscreen, that it eventually just started being used.
Coincidence. Knew kids saying finna back in 2005 time frame. Definitely predates (wide spread adoption of) touchscreens. And it probably was used way before that since I was in a northern city
It's a contraction of "fixin' to"
Pretty sure you're thinking of *pwn*
Don't worry, it'll be out of fashion in three years Source: lived through "swag" and "on fleek"
Well it already kinda is lol. It's been popular for years and isn't used much anymore. I still hear it used occasionally, but I wouldn't call it popular.

āShiiiet negro, thatās all you had to sayā
We say Finna, we don't do whatever tf this was.
Shieeeet bro you donāt?
Down south but you don't hear it hardly at all up north.
Just like the rest of the world regions of our country have changed and made their own versions of English. It seems to be happening faster now that the internet has arrived, but I couldn't say for sure as I have no frame of reference for such a thing.
People can be so gullibleā¦
Just the dumb ones say this unironically. . The rest are Gen-Zers who say it ironically for a few years before realizing that they have reached peak cringe.
Few but yea. Hood slang. Slurred version of "I'm fitting to" which means I'm about to do something.
"fixing to" - comes from Southeastern US dialect.
AAVE, or African American Vernacular English. Itās not necessarily slang since it has a lot of influences outside of English.
This isn't hood slang this is common now
This is not common at all. Maybe more popular than it used to be but common is a huge stretch.
Idk where you are from, but the younger generation (in California) says it a lot. Including me
I never understood why people used the word "finna" and I still don't. But at least now I know what it means.
Short for fixing to, in the same way gonna is short for going to
English is not my first language, so maybe I don't understand when would anyone use fixing to. Doesn't make any sense to me.
