I saw a post captioned “it do be like that” and I did not get it. What does it mean, and when do you use this phrase usually? Is this correct English? I’m learning English I can use to sound more fluent, so I’m studying this one. Thank you.
The correct sentence would be “It really is like that.”
It’s slang commonly used when you can’t really explain something, but it’s true or relatable – usually that “something” is a situation that can be related to life’s ups and downs, something that just happens, and we just have to accept. You can use it to ease tension or to just be funny.|
Example:
Person 1: I think I’m failing my exams, my parents would be mad.
Person 2: It do be like that…
That was a really good explanation. I appreciate it!
