Torlakian dialect

So, let's talk about different ways people can talk. You know when you go to a different place and people might use different words, or say things differently? Well, that's because different places can have different dialects.

Now, Torlakian is one of those dialects. It's spoken in some parts of Serbia, Bulgaria, and North Macedonia. People who speak Torlakian may use some words and sounds that other people might not use.

Sometimes, people who speak Torlakian might talk a little differently from people who speak other languages or dialects. They might use a different accent, or even say some words in a different order.

Torlakian is special because it isn't spoken as much as other dialects, and some people are working to keep it alive. So, if you meet someone who speaks Torlakian, it might be fun to ask them some questions about it!
