Klappentext

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Tokyo dialect ( Tky-hgen) refers to the Japanese dialect spoken in modern Tokyo. The dialect in modern Tokyo is often considered to equate standard Japanese, though in fact the Tokyo dialect differs from standard Japanese in a number of areas. Noticeable earmarks of the dialect include the frequent use of sa, which is roughly analogous to "like" as used in American English slang which is a contraction of ja nai ka and came from the Shizuoka and Kanagawa dialects; and ts in place of to iu. It is also not uncommon for the Tokyo dialect to change the -iru stem of the present progressive to -n, as in tsutten n versus to itte iru no yo of standard Japanese.
