has gloss | fin: Nigga on englanninkielinen afroamerikkalaisten omassa murteessaan (nk. ebonics) käyttämä, heitä itseään tarkoittava termi. Se on muunnelma sanasta nigger, mutta sitä pidetään joskus rasistisen nigger-sanan kevyempänä, tuttavallisena versiona. Termin rasistisuudesta ja sen käytöstä käydään silti kiivasta keskustelua . |
