The Jeolla AKA Cholla dialects of Korean (Hangul: 전라도 방언/사투리; Hanja: 全羅道方言) or Southwestern Korean are spoken in the Jeolla (Honam) region of South Korea including the city of Gwangju.Along with Chungcheong dialects they are considered non-standard. Perhaps the most obvious difference comes from common verb endings. In place of the usual -seumnida (습니다 [sɯmnita]) or -sehyo (세요 [sɛjo]) endings a southern Jeolla person will use -rau (라우 [ɾau]) or -jirau (지라우 [tɕiɾau]) appended to the verb.
