質問: The complete phrase is: 「日本中で、ばえていくけん!」. With the けん at the end, I thought it might have been something from a Kyushu dialect, but the person who said this is from Tottori. The only part I'm really having trouble with is the verb 「ばえていく」. I tried looking up ばえる and ばう as potential verb roots, but they don't seem to exist. Has anyone every heard of this?
回答: ばえる means 騒ぐ in 鳥取弁, the dialect of Tottori. けん is mostly used in the 九州 area and some parts of 四国 and can mean a range of things. I am most familiar with から and some kinds of よ: ### から * 今日は寒い**けん**、コートを着た方がいいよ * 今日は寒い**から**、コートを着た方がいいよ ### よ * お茶いれた**けん** * お茶いれた**よ** Or * いや、昨日めちゃめちゃ面白かったんだ**よ**な〜 * いや、昨日めちゃおもろかった**けん**な〜
