The Linguistic Aspect of the Kumamoto Dialect in Selected Contemporary Manga

Original language description

Role language of different social groups based on gender, character role, or occupation has been analyzed from various perspectives, both in terms of the linguistic aspect of role language and the roles themselves. However, little attention has been given to the role of dialects, particularly concerning the role of dialect speakers within a story. In this study, we analyzed 4,162 dialect occurrences (81 tokens) across five manga series published in the twenty-first century. Despite the relatively high number of tokens, they are mostly limited to specific morphemes or function words that have a high frequency of occurrence. The typical representation of the Kumamoto dialect in manga includes a short form of negation (-n), a verb modifier (-toru), a direct object particle (ba), the adjective “good” (yoka), and the causal conjunction (ken). With this simplification, aimed at functionality, the dialect deviates from the authentic version and leans toward the “pseudo” Kumamoto dialect, which remains comprehensible to the average reader while still preserving the image of the region.
