Nagoya ben

[Liz21]

Hi!
I have friends in Nagoya. I'll be visiting them next year, so it would be so much fun if I could learn a few things about Nagoya ben and blow their minds!!!

What's Nagoya Ben mean?
It's nothing like ekki ben is it?

Nagoya ben is the way some people talk in Nagoya! Like a local dialect. I guess on the jpod show for May 6, they did Nagasaki ben. i haven't heard that episode yet.

Try that. Nagoya-ben is kinda like other Kansai region dialects but far enough away from Kyoto and Osaka that it's a little strange.
