    Because Mandarin is the most common now, others may not be able to understand it if you speak dialects.

    In the past, when I went to elementary school and junior high school, I was in my own village, and I was a person from the same place, and if you spoke dialects, others could understand them. But now, many people in junior high and high schools will go to study in other places, so when people from different cities and counties get together, they can no longer speak dialects, and they need a language that everyone can understand to communicate, and this is when Mandarin should appear.

    Everyone speaks Mandarin, and then people from different places can communicate smoothly.

    But there will still be a small number of people who speak in tongues, just like when I was in high school, there were a few classmates in the class who were from a county, and when they communicated with each other, they spoke in tongues, and others couldn't understand them, but they felt that the dialect was kind, and others couldn't understand it, and they could say the secret out loud.

    This is especially true when I go to university, students all over the country, if they speak dialects, they may not be able to communicate, so they all speak Mandarin, they all come from elementary school, they have learned basic syllables, and they can speak Mandarin.

    Mandarin is becoming more and more popular, and the dialects are slowly not inherited, and after a long time, these languages will disappear, and now many languages have disappeared, just because no one speaks and no one inherits, so they are gone.

    Although Mandarin is very common, I still speak dialects when I play ** with my family, so it will feel a little more cordial, and I can't understand what my roommates say, I feel that I have gained a new skill, and I am very proud. Every time my family calls, I can make a seamless connection between Mandarin and dialects as soon as I pick it up.

    Today's parents speak Mandarin, and of course the babies born will speak Mandarin like their parents, how can they learn to speak dialects without speaking in a dialect environment? So, after a long, long time, there may be no dialects to say, and all Chinese Chinese languages have become Mandarin. Or, years later, mastering a dialect is still a matter of pride, like learning an additional language.

    I think the decline of dialects is a social trend, because a lot of children don't speak dialects anymore. I think there are several reasons for this.

    The first reason is language, it is a tool, it stands to reason that you can ensure that you can understand what others say, and let others understand what you are saying. Now the city is in a state of blending with each other, which is equivalent to a lot of cities exchanging their members, you can't only find Shanghainese people in Shanghai, you can also find Cantonese people, Guangxi people, Jiangsu people and other people from all over the country, at this time they speak dialects are useless, because you can't make the other party understand, so they will speak a more common language, generally speaking, that is Mandarin.

    Therefore, the general parents' requirements for children are to learn to speak Mandarin first, which is the most convenient and fast, as long as you can speak Mandarin, you are not afraid to travel all over the country, that's it. When people choose tools, they naturally choose the most convenient and convenient tools, so slowly the dialect is abandoned.

    The second point is that Mandarin is too common, Mandarin is spoken at school, when I am at home, watching TV or something is Mandarin, children are naturally speaking Mandarin, like our family, I am studying abroad, and when I talk to my parents, I am generally half Mandarin and half hometown, only when I talk to the elderly, I will all use dialects. For example, our children, in kindergarten, slipped Mandarin, talked Mandarin with teachers and classmates, and became accustomed to speaking, so they kept speaking at home, and slowly stopped speaking their hometown.

    The third point is that there are more and more outsiders, and the children born from the combination of outsiders and locals generally speak Mandarin, because their parents communicate in Mandarin, so their words from elementary school are Mandarin, so there are many children whose dialect is Mandarin.

    Actually, I rarely speak in tongues.

    I think it's strange myself.,But if you think about it carefully, it's probably inevitable.,When I was young, my parents took me to town.,Although they're very busy.,The people I live in are well-off.,All of them speak fluent Mandarin.,Especially my childhood sweetheart.,My mother's temperament when I was a child is good.,I lived in his house for the longest time.,His mother has always spoken Mandarin.。 So the people I come into contact with speak Mandarin both in school and outside of school, so they often speak Mandarin and speak less dialects.

    I still don't think I can speak in tongues, and then I don't want to live in someone else's house, so my parents asked my grandparents to take me back to the countryside, and my grandparents couldn't understand Mandarin, so we often used dialects to communicate, but at that time my language system had been formed, and my grandfather always laughed at me, saying that I had created a set of Mandarin versions of dialects, and they could understand them, and we usually communicate like this.

    As Mandarin becomes more and more popular, those rural schools are becoming more and more formal, teachers must have grasped children's Mandarin from an early age, and parents also pay more attention to their children's learning, I think parents will let their children speak Mandarin, after all, they themselves speak Mandarin, if it is a grandparent with children may speak dialects, but not much, after all, once they arrive at school, teachers will let them standardize some.

    Therefore, all the above reasons have led to the fact that children nowadays speak less and less in tongues, which is a good phenomenon and a bad phenomenon, because some of the more meaningful dialects may slowly disappear without a trace. After all, if I were to teach my children, the children's grandparents would definitely speak Mandarin, and my grandparents would also speak Mandarin, so there would be no people and environments that spoke dialects.

    Except for the left-behind children, most of the children moved to the city with their parents, and the people around them all speak Mandarin, so the children naturally do not speak dialects. Even though many children are cared for by the elderly, he said at the beginning that he would be sent to a nursery school and a kindergarten, and all he learned was Mandarin, and some of the local dialects he could understand but could not speak.

    My child was two years old when he learned to speak, and his grandfather passed away that year, and his grandmother was not in a good mental state. The child was sent to his grandmother's house in Hefei, Anhui Province. She was taken care of by her grandmother and grandfather.

    His father and I continued to go back to work in Wuxi, and we usually went to see our children for two months. I clearly remember that my son learned Hefei dialect with my mother all day long, and all the people living around my hometown were old people and children, and the old people in the family could not speak Mandarin. Therefore, the children who stay in their hometown can only speak their hometown.

    When the child turned three years old, I resigned and went back to my parents' house to take him to Wuxi to live together, and sent him to kindergarten. At the end of the year, when I took him back to his parents' house, I couldn't understand what my grandparents said about Hefei.

    In some families, the children live in the city and are taken care of by their grandparents, and the elderly can speak the native dialect, but most parents can speak Mandarin well from an early age in order for their children to pronounce accurately, and the elderly are required to learn to use Mandarin when communicating with their children, which gradually cuts off the children's contact with local dialects.

    The pace of life is too fast, and the children enter the campus early to learn Mandarin. Local dialects are becoming more and more alien to children. Our local dialects are being denied by us, gradually erased, and disappeared forever.

    Children should learn the local dialect, and as a parent of the children, it is also necessary to teach this knowledge to the children. This is also a deep understanding of the local civilization, because language is the accumulation of a civilization, through different Yinyu languages, we can have an in-depth understanding of how the people in the mountains and the actual state of life are formed, developed and changed in the future. More dialect scholars also consider the close connection between dialects and local cultures, and also advocate the importance of children learning local languages.

    Not every language exists on its own. The influencing factors of language formation also include natural factors and social factors. Thus, the dialects of a region bring together the unique cultures of the region.

    If a region does not have its own dialect, it is equivalent to losing the culture of the region, and losing the culture is equivalent to losing the foundation. If a person can learn the dialect of a region well, his habits of life and thinking will be very close to the people of that region.

    Cultural diversity is a fundamental feature of human society and human civilization.

    An important driver of progress. In modern society, we are always inseparable from language. We must not only express our own thoughts in words, but also understand the thoughts of others in words. Especially in social interactions.

    We need to communicate with each other through language. Network technology has also developed by leaps and bounds. People can use the Internet to learn and communicate, but people still can't do without open language communication and language dependence.

    Learning Chinese well can enrich our lives and make our lives colorful.

    It not only deepens our understanding of the modern Chinese language.

    The understanding of basic theories broadens our professional knowledge, improves our language proficiency, and raises our cultural accomplishment to a higher level. For thousands of years, the country has profoundly reflected the customs and social development of a region based on the reality of a region's economy, politics, culture, and customs, and learning and applying dialects is a good starting point.

    I don't think so. After all, children grow up in the dialect ring or environment, they will slowly learn to speak dialects, there is no need to learn deliberately, and the school teachers have taught the children to learn to speak Mandarin, Mandarin has a wider range of application, higher practicality, there is no need to learn dialects.

    It is necessary because dialects are characteristic of every place, and it is necessary to learn the language of one's own homeland.

    I think it is very necessary for the current little ruler children to learn dialects, because dialects represent the culture of a place, and if you don't learn Fang Ling's dialect, you will slowly forget the dialect.

    It's not surprising that children don't speak in tongues. Because now the parents of children are post-80s and post-90s, they all speak Mandarin when they read, and the country also advocates the promotion of Mandarin. After the child is born, the parents use Mandarin to talk to the child at any time, and over time, the children will not speak in dialects, and the elderly will not understand what it means to speak in tongues with them, and they will have to explain to them for a long time, so even the elderly and grandchildren will learn to speak to the children in Mandarin.

    That's why today's kids don't speak in tongues.

    The children around me all speak in tongues. And it's all in tongues. There is no one who does not speak in tongues. No, it's the ones who grew up in other places and came back.

    Because parents speak Mandarin with their children, mobile phones and dialects can be heard, but it is a bit difficult to speak. It's like speaking a foreign language, and after a long time, it's smooth. I hope that parents still have to teach their children to speak in tongues.

    It is true that most of the children do not speak in tongues. I think there are two main reasons, the first is the implementation of Mandarin, children have been learning Mandarin since school, and they also use Mandarin to communicate at home, and over time they forget the dialect. The second is that as parents leave their hometowns to develop in other places, they will be exposed to another dialect in other places, which also determines to a certain extent that children will gradually become unfamiliar with the dialect of their hometown.

    Children are ignorant and live in their parents.

    Conceptual deviation, I don't know the value of dialects.

    The knowledge in the book is just a dead thing. The dialect is smart, containing the treasure of thousands of miles of books.

    No step, no thousand miles. Even the local vernacular is abandoned, and after traveling all over the north, south, west and east, what can you appreciate.

    If children are unable to learn both dialects and Mandarin, they have limited intelligence. Parents use this as a ruler, and it will not burden them too much in the future.

    School, if the dialect is suppressed, it is just to stifle Tong Hui Tianzhi and create a class of assembly line workers.

    The languages of the fraternal nationalities are taught with public funds. If the Han dialect does not have this fee, then ask whether the full braid that was cut a hundred years ago is still in the brain, and the country has not been restored.

    Now that Mandarin is being promoted, it is shameful to speak dialects in the city, so the soil for children to learn dialects has disappeared and they can't speak dialects. Not surprising.

    Because his parents both speak Mandarin, and they also speak Mandarin when communicating with their children, and they also speak Mandarin when they are educated in school, so the children do not speak dialects.

    It's very simple to popularize Mandarin.

    It's all not taught by adults
