Non-standard inflection of be (i.e. is). Equinox 19:22, 21 May 2017 (UTC)Reply

Easily cited, but it's not just second person - it can substitute for "am" or "are" as well. The question is, is this English, or is it a pidgin? Kiwima (talk) 21:18, 21 May 2017 (UTC)Reply

I've heard people say things like "He bes good all the time!" (in response to someone saying "be good" to someone which is usually used in the imperative). PseudoSkull (talk) 21:59, 21 May 2017 (UTC)Reply
