胡适说:“方言的文学所以可贵,正因为方言最能表现人的神理。通俗的白话固然远胜于古文,但终不如方言能表现说话人的神情口气。通俗官话里的人物是做作不自然的活人,方言土语里的人物是自然流露的人。”至于方言所塑造的身份认同,则更是人们与生俱来和挥之不去的“乡愁”。 Hu Shih said: “Dialect literature is so valuable because dialect is the best expression of the human spirit. Although the popular vernacular is much better than the ancient Chinese, it is not as good as the dialect in expressing the speaker’s tone. Unnatural living people, dialect natives in the language is a natural person. ”As for the identity of dialect shape, it is even more people innate and lingering “ nostalgia ”.
