Huh? Blue Whale Dialect? 

Nope, that's just how Nanjingers say their own dialect IN their own dialect (kind of). Join Brad and Vicky in episode 3 of 南腔北调 as they explore the language, history and culture of the 'Southern 京' with Nanjing native 小王 and get in to much more than mixed up L's and N's. 

南京，一座古典与现代交融的城市。 你对她了解有多少？ 只有夫子庙、老门东，鸡鸣寺、玄武湖，明城墙、中山陵吗？ 你知道南京话曾是中国历史上长期通用的官方标准语吗？ 蓝鲸话摆的一米，阿是啊？ 蓝鲸人哪个怕哪个？ 小杆子你怎么这么甩？

 …… 

本期节目让老南京人小王带领大家学习一下南京话前前后后的故事。 点击收听节目，感受南京话的“清雅流畅”和抑扬顿挫……

2) 开场白文字 OPENING TRANSCRIPT

Hey! 欢迎收听面包吐思南腔北调。我是面包. Local language serves as the starting point and core of every episode of 南腔北调,and we go from there. After spending two episodes on the Northern 京,we’re heading south to talk with 南京土著王彬彬。The dude knows his 蓝鲸 history and culture, he speaks 蓝鲸话，and he is 搞笑的一米。If you’re listening to my voice right now, you’re either lost (in which case we’re so glad we found you!), working on your Chinese, or you’re a native speaker.  Doesn’t matter!  Stick around. You just might have some fun and you’ll certainly learn a lot about an incredible city and a fascinating dialect.

To help yourself get a grasp of the basics of 南京话，we suggest you follow along with the language learning materials in the show notes at breadtoastchinese.simplecast.com or in the article for this week’s show on our public WeChat account, or 微信公众号，BreadToast Chinese 面包吐思.
