Since my hometown is far from Tokyo, the people living here is speaking with dialect. When I entered university in Tokyo, I was afraid a little bit. Because I knew I had different accent. My friend in Tokyo used to pointed out my accent. So now I can speak standard Japanese very fluently. (^v^)
Recently especailly among young girls , they like to speak with dialect. I don't know why. But they think it is much cutier.

Imagine a world or a country speaking a single language and dialects do not exist... how boring that will be.
Dialect is a part of local culture and it should be preserved. It forms part of a person's identity and history, creating a unique personality...
I cannot imagine everyone speaking the way I do... how boring.
That's right. I meant, young girls who live in Tokyo,and they don't speak with dialect usually , like to speak Japanese dialect on purpose. Just reason they feel cute . It is funny for me.
