Abstract

There is a rumor among some teachers of special support education at Tsugaru Area in Aomori Prefecture in northern Japan. “Children with Autism do not speak Tsugaru dialect.” A series of studies on the use of local dialects were conducted. The results of the studies indicated the following; 1) the impression with non-use of local dialect in ASD is widespread on the teacher of special support education, 2) the students with ASD in special education schools do not use vocabularies in local dialects. Also, experimental studies report that children with ASD in local dialect society have a difficulty of comprehension of dialect in compared to children with typical development and that children with ASD show characteristic patterns in the change of speaking according to the relationship and scene. As a cause of this phenomenon, Matsumoto et al. (2017) cited social disability relative to the social function of local dialects. On the other hand, a researcher of acoustic phonetics points out the peculiarity of auditory processing in ASD as the cause. Based on these studies, the difficulties in which children with ASD show in use and comprehension in local dialects are discussed.
