If you consider 2 warped words as "dialect" then I guess so. I considered it annoying. To be fair, I listened to the book, so I didn't hear anything else odd. The writing (spelling) could have been a mess which could create a goofy dialect. Hunger Games was much more sophisticated and nothing compares to it . . . yet.Thoughts of Joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05572910467988997432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31208059.post-75152127032899657532012-01-14T21:27:10.576-05:002012-01-14T21:27:10.576-05:00Is "I says" part of the dialect?
