日本語の方言
The Hōnichi dialect (豊日方言|"Hōnichi hōgen") is a group of the Japanese dialects spoken in eastern Kyushu. It is closer in some ways to Western Japanese (Chūgoku dialect) that it is to other Kyushu dialects. The name "Hōnichi" (豊日) is constructed by extracting a representative kanji from "Buzen" (豊前), "Bungo" (豊後) and "Hyūga" (日向), names of old provinces there.
