The Gyeongsang dialects (Korean: 경상도 사투리; RR: Gyeongsangdo saturi), also known as Southeastern Korean (동남 방언; Dongnam Bangeon; lit. Southeastern Dialect), are dialects of the Korean language from the historical region of Gyeongsang Province. Today, that region is divided into Daegu, Busan, Ulsan, North Gyeongsang Province, and South Gyeongsang Province.
Gyeongsang dialects vary. A native speaker can distinguish the dialect of Daegu from that of the Busan-Ulsan area although the first city is less than 100 kilometers away from the latter two cities. Dialectal forms are relatively similar along the midstream of Nakdong River but are different near Busan and Ulsan, Jinju and Pohang as well as along the eastern slopes of Mount Jiri.
After Standard Korean, it is the next most prevalent Korean dialect.[1] There are approximately 13,000,000 speakers.
