What are the characteristics of Dingxi dialect?

My ancestors lived in the bitter world of Dingxi City, Gansu Province, and the Huangshi Plateau, which has been dry for ten years and nine years, was born and raised in Dingxi and knew a little about local dialects since childhood.

Dingxi is located in the middle of Gansu Province, commonly known as "Longzhong", and in Zhonglian No.7 Middle School, with a total area of 1.96 million square kilometers, a total cultivated area of 1.2 1.8 million mu and a total population of more than 3.03 million. Now it has jurisdiction over Anding West and Tongyu, Longxi, Weiyuan, Lintao and Minxian. Because Dingxi has a long history, the whole city is located in Huangshi Plateau, and there are different dialects in different jurisdictions, so it is used to the exchange and communication of dialect dialogue caused by natural similarity.

Dingxi is the largest ethnic group in history, living together, seeing each other for a long time. Due to the influence of different regions, it has formed its own dialect system in the long-term production and life. Therefore, we Dingxi people, native scholars, scholars have a long history. One side of water and soil, one side of people, one side of dialect. Being in a foreign country, I can't speak Mandarin, which leads to the embarrassing situation that I can't communicate. For example; Dingxi people call ears melon seeds. Why? This is called group color. Call a fool a mocker, a trouble a nuisance and a guess a hair. There are also some dialects that are actually very contradictory, for example; There is a small door in the middle of the gate, called Gamen, and the iron spoon for shaking rice is called copper and iron, and so on. There are too many local dialects, and local dialects have a handle, which will prevent people from playing interesting jokes in dialects after reading them.

Dialects have been passed down since ancient times, and I think they will definitely disappear in the future and will never be heard again. Due to the continuous progress and renewal of society, the children born in 1980s will learn to speak Mandarin from an early age, and the old people who can speak dialects will pass away year after year, never to return, becoming an eternal memory of folk dialects.

The dialect we speak in Dingxi dialect is actually a continuation of the language and culture of the Central Plains, which is very close to the original intention of life and very grounded. In particular, some verbs and adjectives are very appropriate and practical in language! Of course, it is not a language family with Tianshui, Jingning, Lintao and other places in Gansu, which is a little less sweet, but it is its own language characteristics!
