What is the importance of dialects? Why should we protect dialects?

The importance of dialect lies in that each language does not exist independently, and the influencing factors of language formation also include natural factors and social factors. Therefore, the dialect of a region brings together the unique and distinctive culture of that region. If a region does not have its own dialect, it is equivalent to losing its culture, and losing its culture is equivalent to losing its foundation.

Language and culture complement each other. If a person can learn the dialect of a region well, his living habits and thinking habits will be close to those of people in that region.

The culture of a region is an important symbol of its identity. Therefore, it is beneficial for everyone to learn the local dialects well, so as to maintain the cultural diversity of the world. Cultural diversity is the basic feature of human society and an important driving force for the progress of human civilization.

The meaning of dialect:

1. Dialect is a unique national culture. Every place has its own unique dialect, which has been circulated for thousands of years and has rich cultural heritage.

2. People began to consciously protect history and culture, such as protecting the quintessence of Peking Opera and traditional national festivals.

3. It is important to promote Putonghua, but we should not abandon dialects and national arts.

As a communication tool between people, it is very important to popularize Putonghua, while dialects, as a kind of culture and art, contain strong national characteristics and should be protected. The two are not contradictory.

5. To some extent, dialect can better represent regional cultural characteristics, and dialect is a social phenomenon.
