Local Dialects

Suzuka is in a unique position within Mie Prefecture, located by the Suzuka Quasi National Park (the boundary between Suzuka and Shiga), since the industrial boom it has been a major funnel or interchange point for the main commuter train lines for some years. The train lines from South Mie (Ise/Toba) meet the Kansai (Osaka/Nara/Wakayama) line and The Nagoya, local, tetsudo line all pass through the city. Due to the unique mix of commuter passage through Suzuka city, the local dialect (hōgen) is a highly unique mixture of three, very dissimilar variations of Japanese depending specifically on proximity to a particular train line which are all within 20 kilometers of each other. In recent years this mix of populous has posed a highly unique problem within the city as communication problems with city officials, police, citizens and industry visitors have been exposed to a severe communication breakdown. The cities governing officials have recently implemented a plan requiring all members of an authority position to be coherent in all dialects, which is rare milestone in Japan.

Gakushū juku (学習塾 Cram schools are special private schools (primarily in Japan) that offer lessons conducted after regular school hours and In a controversial move, the city's governing body, from April 2004, requires all garbage information and local signage to be displayed in both Japanese and Portuguese but not English.
