In Kansai-ben, the long vowel “う” often drops. Typical of this are the te-form? of verbs, i-adjectives, and volitional forms. For example:
verbs te-form | i-adjectives te-form | volitional form |
---|---|---|
思うて | 早うて | 行こう |
思 て | 早 て | 行こ |
Besides the above, there are many cases where the “う” drops such as “やろう→やろ,” “そうや→そや,” and “Vてもうた→Vてもた.”
