Dialects snd sub dialects---dialect vocabulary words are in certain grammar categories, so people can always expect to.find local.words in those places, and be aware that they shall encounter words that are not simply pronunciations of national Putonghua words, like demonstrative adjectives some pronouns, some verbs that have daily use and usually 1 syllable, the particle between adjectives or nouns, or noun and other nouns, some measure.words before nouns, and a few other categories. Also, many "dialect" words are modern dialect uses of old national words, like Cantonese sik (to eat, also food) is Putonghua shi (in past, to eat, also food, now only food), Hokkien, yi, (he, she, it) is continuation of old national--Northern yi (before modern ta). Question words tend to be unique or borrowed from minorities, etc (Cantonese matye, meiye, for what? or whatever). In sum, dialect origin and dialect use old Northern national words categories are ALWAYS limited to certain, predictable, even knowable, groups of words which 1 can always expect and be on look out--- VERY regular and systematic!!! The vast majority of words are common Northern national words with pronunciation and tone variations that are problematic but possible to learn. Also, most of word order and other grammar are mostly identical!! In other words, dialects are NOT minority or foreign languages--- they are all.variations of a common Northern national theme. Hope this helps. Zhu dajia hao yunqi!! Jia, you!!!

Dialects snd sub dialects---dialect
vocabulary words are in certain
grammar categories, so people
can always expect to.find local.words in those places, and be
aware that they shall encounter
words that are not simply pronunciations of national Putonghua words, like demonstrative adjectives some pronouns, some verbs that have daily use and usually 1 syllable,
the particle between adjectives
or nouns, or noun and other nouns, some measure.words before
nouns, and a few other categories.
Also, many "dialect" words are modern dialect uses of old national words, like Cantonese
sik (to eat, also food) is Putonghua shi (in past, to eat, also food, now only food), Hokkien, yi,
(he, she, it) is continuation of old
national--Northern yi (before modern ta). Question words
tend to be unique or borrowed
from minorities, etc (Cantonese
matye, meiye, for what? or whatever). In sum, dialect origin and dialect use old Northern national words categories are ALWAYS limited to certain, predictable, even knowable, groups of words which 1 can always expect and be on look out--- VERY
regular and systematic!!! The vast
majority of words are common
Northern national words with
pronunciation and tone variations
that are problematic but possible
to learn. Also, most of word order
and other grammar are mostly
identical!! In other words, dialects
are NOT minority or foreign languages--- they are all.variations
of a common Northern national

Jesus! I didn't expect to hear my home language on your channel. I've been following your channel for a while, from Hengyang.
Haha, great!
I liked the character montages.
Thanks! It was almost meditational to make them:)
