Foreign immigrant dialect

Every country has its own language, and even people in the same language family have different accents. For example, both the United States and Britain speak English, but their accents are quite different.

In addition, even in the same country, due to different living habits and regions, language expressions are different, or they all have their own regional dialects. Although Japan is small, there are great differences in dialects, which fully illustrates this point.

Japan has a small land area, but a large population, which is widely distributed and geographically divided into Kyushu, Kanto, Kansai and Shikoku. Because of this, various dialects have evolved, such as Kyoto dialect, Baban dialect, Ryukyu dialect and Hokkaido dialect.

Japanese dialects such as Okinawa and Kyushu.

Although there are many dialects, Japanese people can understand most of their own dialects because of their high popularity. It is said that the dialect pronunciation in some parts of Japan is similar to that in some parts of China, and we all know that Japan was influenced by China culture in history.

Now, what do the Japanese think is the standard sound? Tokyo Bay? This is equivalent to Mandarin officially recognized by our country? Beijing sound? Same. So, what are the pronunciations of Japanese TV dramas that we often see? Tokyo Bay? .

To tell the truth, it is a good thing that Japan has a small land area, developed media and high popularity. Otherwise, you won't understand the swearing dialect next door when you leave the community.

In contrast, in our country, China has eight major language families, including Northern Dialect, Wu Dialect, Xiang Dialect, Gan Dialect, Hakka Dialect, Minnan Dialect, Fujian Oriental Dialect and Cantonese. Just the eight major language families, many people probably only know one or even none, so some people who grew up in cities are not worthy of translation in rural areas and can only understand what villagers say by guessing.

Mr. Lu Xun once wrote in Talking about Foreign Languages:? Dialect dialect, which is very meaningful. Where shall we call it? Refining words? It is very interesting to use. Just as classical Chinese is a classic, listeners find it interesting. ? Dialect existed a long time ago and is regarded as a living fossil of culture. Dialect, as a national culture, is necessary to protect and inherit.
