    When you started talking about the pitch accents, I realized that I use Kansai dialect a lot more than I thought I did! I studied there, and while I don't use a whole lot of phrases and expressions outside of や and sometimes へん, along with some more casual conjugations, I hadn't realized how much my pitch accent was affected by it. I wonder if it would be something that a speaker of standard dialect would pick up on. I haven't had the chance to meet with any Japanese speakers since leaving Japan and I spent all of my time there in Kansai, so I didn't speak to many people from outside the region.

    This is totally random, but today i had a lesson with my japanese tutor and we were reviewing one of my sentences that i made from my Genki workbook. The sentence was: きっさてんにはいて、休みましょう。And my tutor said to me that japanese people don't use the word きっさてん nowadays and that it's old fashioned. So we were wondering why they still use old japanese vocabulary in textbooks. So i thought maybe ゆたさん knows or someone else.

      For my sense(I’m Japanese of early 20s), the word "きっさてん(喫茶店 in Kanji)" is a bit old-fashioned, to simply refer "tearoom / coffee shop".
      The word "カフェ(kafe)"(came from the word "café") is more common.
      You can still use the word "きっさてん", but it sounds like older style tearooms or coffee shops (like the one having nostalgic interiors, opened around 20th Century), so I think it's not suitable for today's modern chain shops like Starbucks.

    Damn, never knew you were originally from the Kyushuu region, I couldn't have noticed.
    Greetings from an Osaka-haafu living abroad that probably has developed even more weird pitch accent patterns, from my lack of contact with Japanese, besides my mother (and Anime).

    If only you had easy access to the Okinawan dialect, despite being from an Okinawan family, I never heard it. I'm talking about the Okinawan Japanese, not Okinawan Hougen, which is actually another language called Uchinaaguchi.

      @@rattlehead001 lovecom is soo good ;-;. If you are used to standard Tokyo accent you will tell the difference. There will be characters in some anime who will have a different accent . Usually kansai ppl are associated with comedy so sometimes comedic characters will speak kansai-ben
      Another eg
      In bleach gin speaks Kyoto-ben

    To those saying dialects are not so different, remember in these interviews, people are speaking in honorifics, meaning they are more or less standard Japanese with their natural accents “accidentally” showing through.

    I think it's just me but learning pitch accent is the hardest thing in learning Japanese cause I can't really differentiate the sound at all even after Yuta make a comparison in "Seiyuu san wakaru?"
    Is there a way to make learning Japanese pitch accent easier? and does people still understand (or maybe in this case they don't mind) if you said Japanese in not standard Japanese pitch accent?
