Mina-san, o-tsukare-sama deshita! You’ve tackled one of the most difficult Japanese dialects and have an arsenal of Aomori vocabulary to amaze your Japanese friends (and trust me, they’ll really be surprised if you say any of these).

and this is the proverb that Nozomi-san mentioned:
猿も木から落ちる
さるもきからおちる
“even monkeys fall from trees”

Congratulations for this Aomoriben series.
I can’t wait for the Kansaiben lessons!
I think Kansai is the most visited part of Japan, so it couldl be very useful, as a lot of us will hear more Kansaiben than Japanese.

んだなー。のぞみちゃんはすげーだべ？

最近のぞみちゃんは超忙しくてあんまり時間がないんだけど、たまに、ジャパニーズポッドに戻りそうだよ。and as peter would say、 誓います！

でも、本当は、皆さんはスゴイと思います！このculture classはそんな人気があってマジでびっくりしました。のぞみちゃんもびっくりだって言ってましたよ。本当にお疲れ様でした！

今度、関西弁とか福岡弁とか猿弁とか勉強するべ！

宜しくお願いします

マーキー

そうですか。では、のぞみさんは頑張ってくださいね。そして、猿弁を楽しみしているんですよ 。

I’m just curious, is there a Tokyo-ben?

I got culture class 46 as Aomori dialect 4, where is culture class 47?

マーキ聞こえないとさびしいね！ノゾミ先生もマーキ先生ももどるんでしょ！

I just watched the movie Hula Girls and thought that the dialogue sounded like the Aomori-ben in these lessons! I think I caught some references in the film to it being set in Iwaki, which is Aomori prefecture. It was fun being able to catch some of the phrases and inflections in the movie after having heard them here on Japanese Pod 101.
