JAWing On – Life on Okinawa

Weekly Hogen (Okinawan Dialect) :

English – It is noisy.

Japanese – yakamashii(?????)
yagamashii (?????) *
urasai (????)

Hogen – yagamasanu (?????)

(*NOTE: This word seems to be a deviation on base word yakamashii. As with the individual islands of the Ryukyu Island chain, certain areas of Japan tend to have a "slang" and word derivatives that are indicative of each particular area. This is simliar to the "you all" and "y’all" differences heard in America.)
