| Research Abstract |
We have done a questionnaire survey about Yamanashi dialect from 1997 to 1999. The data were collected from 3717 people by the survey. We accumulated, calculated and analyzed the total data.
The results did not reveal direct influences from Tokyo area concretely. We have assumed that recent new dialectal forms in Yamanashi dialect were spread from Tokyo area and some forms were transmitted by media such as television. But, the local residents of Yamanashi prefecture have a common consiousness that those forms were not from Tokyo area but from friends of the same gerneration of neighborhood.
Therefore, the influence of Tokyo area upon Yamanashi dialect was indirect. It is clear by lots of evidences such as the analysis of an age difference and a regional difference of the language expressions that those forms were spread from Tokyo area, but people cannot consider the fact.
The traditional dialectal forms of Yamanashi prefecture tend to change independently without any influences of surrounding prefectures. And thus we could obtain traditional patterns of dialect change. Typically, dialectal forms which are frequently used in the older generation are not used in the middle generation, and younger people use less than the middle-aged. People of Kosuge village, it is adjacent to Tokyo, are firmly connected to Tokyo area in lots of aspects such as shopping and working and they seldom use Yamanashi dialect.
