    Abrogation is the rejection of a normative concept of ‘correct’ or ‘standard’ English used by certain classes or groups, and of the corresponding concepts of inferior ‘dialects’ or ‘marginal variants’. It also means a partial or total negation of Eurocentric assumptions about culture, history, and truth.
