The Last Local Accent

After the only child in the class who could speak an authentic dialect transferred to another school, the remaining children, under the leadership of a "serious" teacher, launched a plan to "retain the local accent." They recorded old people's stories, sorted out dialect vocabulary, and deciphered sounds that could not be translated into Mandarin - and ultimately discovered that they were protecting not just a language, but a world. Core Theme: The disappearance of every dialect is like the extinguishing of a star. What we can do is listen carefully before it disappears completely. Story background: Qinghe Village Primary School in a county in the southwest mountainous area. Among the 12 children in the fifth grade class, only Lin Xiaomai can speak the local dialect fluently. After she transferred to another school, the children suddenly discovered that they were losing a "way of speaking."
