Longkou dialect belongs to Jiaodong dialect, which is not much different from Wei Yan. It's a small curly tongue, so it's hard to tell the difference between a curly tongue and a flat tongue. The charm of Longkou dialect is mainly manifested in the humorous and vivid words used by Longkou people. In the eyes of Longkou people, any major event is a "side dish", "Mao Mao rain" and "big event".
Longkou dialect retains three ancient sayings:
1. The meaning, pronunciation and tone of the word are basically the same as those of the current language. For example, "chopsticks cage" and "chopsticks" are old sayings, and "cage" is a woven container.
The meaning of vocabulary is the same as today's, but the pronunciation and harmony are different. Such as "spitting rice", Longkou is pronounced "catching rice".
3. The meaning of vocabulary, even pronunciation and tone, is not consistent with modern Chinese, but the meaning is related. For example, "Yao", Longkou refers to cooked pigs, while the old saying refers to meat dishes such as fish, which means Longkou dialect.
