Nashawn：Hey, you are late.
Mack：Don't worry about me bein' late. I'm goona take this plane of yours up another 1,000 feet, and we gonna be there five minutes early. Real slick like hair grease, but with less mess. Can you dig it?
Nashawn：Yeah, I can dig it. I was lookin' at your resume, man. I see that you flew in Desert Storm. That's pretty impressive.
Mack：Actually, that's a typo. I drew over in Desert Storm.
Nashawn：I'm sorry, I didn't... What you say?
Mack：I was the nigga that drew the little say-ings on the bombsamn Saddam. That was me. Matter of fact, I'm not even 'posed to be talkin' about that.
Nashawn：What? Do you even know how to fly a plane, man?
Mack： Sure, I got my wings when I got out.
语言点：
1、麦克所说的“Can you dig it?”，是问“你明白吗?”这个用法有些过时。dig还有喜欢的意思，如“I really dig those shoes!”（我真喜欢那双鞋！）
2、这段对话的语言多处都不合语法，写出来还有许多拼写错误，但这就是美国黑人英语的特色。黑人英语中，词尾的“ing”发音为“in”。如文中的“I was lookin' at your resume.”而词尾的“er”则发音为“a”。例如“I was the nigga……”
3、nigga其实就是nigger。这个词是白人对黑人的蔑称，我们提到美国黑人时，一定要说black，有时候还说African American。nigger一词侮辱意味很强，绝不可以使用。但这里麦克把自己称作nigger，则含有幽默的意味。
4、把“going to”说成“gonna”,“want to”说成“wan-na”，美国白人如今也这么含混地说话。黑人英语还有很多省略、吞音，如“What you say”（What did you say）,“Matter of fact”（As a matter of fact），“'posd to”（supposed to）。
