What is the Kumamoto people?




I think the Kumamoto people have some characteristic. For example, I think Kumamoto people speak in dialect, be late for promise, and be a bit hasty. Then I would like to talk about why I think so in order.

First, I’ll talk about Kumamoto people’s dialect. Kumamoto has a lot of dialect. And it is a little different from area. On each area, each dialect is spoken. Commonly dialect is spoken by older people. But in Kumamoto, young people speak in dialect, too. In fact, many young people use in dialect not only in conversation but also in e-mail. Maybe young people like Kumamoto’s dialect, and they want to leave it. So that is why Kumamoto people speak in dialect well.

Second, I’ll talk about Kumamoto people are late for promise. Of cause it is NOT all of Kumamoto people. But it is said that Kumamoto people are usually late for promise. I think being late for a few minutes is not so serious matter for many Kumamoto people. Actually if I wait for friend few minutes, I will not be angry. Because being late for promise is natural for Kumamoto people. Maybe most Kumamoto people know that is not good thing. But they are late. I can’t understand why they can’t improve this custom.

Third, I will talk about Kumamoto people are a bit hasty. For example, they don’t wait for the signal to change to green. If there are no cars, Kumamoto people cross the rode. I think the best example is the intersection of toorityousuji. If some people start to cross the intersection, another people also start to cross it. Maybe they don’t think it is bad thing.

In conclusion, the Kumamoto people like Kumamoto’s dialect. Some Kumamoto people late for promise, but Kumamoto people are not angry for being late for a few minutes. They are kindness. And the Kumamoto people some times don’t wait for turn the signal. I think Kumamoto people have more characteristic. I would like to find more!

I'm interested in the part 'a bit hasty'. I see people who don't wait until a signal changes from red to green too. Incidentally, I don't sometimes wait until the signal changes... By the way, your essay is easy to understand and long! As my suggestion, you should use the word 'however', because you can use it instead of 'but'!
