I'm pretty sure American English is the variant taught in Japan. Is that right?
It's actually the preferred English of Asia. Mostly because no one really cares to go to Oxford anymore.

(Ebonics)
Ebonics is the variant of language used by black americans who were not paying attention during childhood development english when pronunciation and annunciation were being taught in grade school classes like 2, 3, 4, and 5. As a result these regulars of the "ebonics" slang language have made attempts to have these wrong sounding words become a part of the english language, fortunately there has been a higher percentage of historic english speaking people defend this nonsense at the voting polls, but there will likely be a day when americans have lowered the standards as they have since the late 60's to allow this or possibly spanish slang to overtake the american english that was taught and used with regularity in classrooms. The decay in american education has come to the forefront in courtrooms, public speaking drills like community meetings where these "ebonics" people who have now forgotten or never really did learn how to speak but were passed up by the worn-out teachers suddenly are outclassed by the american speaking groups who are in the more powerful positions at these gatherings.
Yolandaa and Joe were not understood by the english speaking people in the same room because of (ebonics). Joe ebonics person says they axted you a question, the english counterpart is that Joe asked you a question; they were not holding or wielding an ax to you. Yolanda ebonics speaking person describes as a courtroom witness that he or she be going to mom's house; Yolanda ebonics was going, this has already happened or they would not be accurate in this description as the ebonics version portrays this as not happening yet but is planning to happen very soon.
