I don't think there are any rules to "AAVE" either, one speaker of this dialect? creole? language? or whatever we're calling it, would not be able to point out grammatical errors in the speech of another.

There are actually quite a few rules. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/African_American_Vernacular_Eng...
