All languages have.


Yes, that's true, but it's hard to measure the significance of the differences if you don't know the language. My friend was telling me about the difference between Austrian and German, even though Austrian is still German.

I'm a stickler for context. With a programming language I can follow set standards or certain paradigms. With another verbal language I feel constantly distracted by going off on divergent tangents on differences between dialects, because I feel I need to know those contextual differences, if I don't I don't feel I'm fully grasping the language.

Don't worry. All schools teach standard Japanese, so you'd still be understood wherever you go. :)

It's just dialects. Scots and the North are incomprehensible to most people in the South.

122 per roll in a pack of 8.

But when I'm out buying brioche I usually buy other crap to gorge on as well. I like food.
