The two sentences that represent variations of standard English are:

  1. My dog wouldn't jump on nobody. (This is an example of a double negative, which is a common feature in some dialects.)

  2. I ain't interested in watching that movie. (The use of "ain't" is a variation from standard English.)

The other sentences are either standard English or have grammatical issues that don't fit the variations typically associated with non-standard forms.
