I actually love both dialects and I am hoping to study Eastern Armenian at Glendale Community College or in Armenia. I'd love to study Armenian in Armenia, especially because Eastern Armenian has many regional dialects which Western Armenian, thanks to the Turks and Kurds, does not. Anyway, it would be interesting to see how Yerevan Armenian differs from Shirak Armenian and especially Artsakh Armenian. And of course there are the Persian Armenians who, if I am not mistaken, have a unique way of pronouncing "r."
This poem shows us how today's assimilation isn't any different from the assimilation that existed in 1965. Even after so many decades, the Armenians' preoccupation has never changed thanks to the Turks.

You know, I've never really noticed a difference in language and grammer in ARMENIA from region to region - just slight differences in pronounciation - asside from Karabaghtsi Armenian - the rest of Armenia has almost identical dialects.
You should go to Kirovakan and hear them talk - they make their "aa"'s longer lol...Like "chem ga" becomes "chetem gaaaaaaaaa"

It's actually quite entertaining.
Hey Matie!!!! I am Kirovakantsi LOL
But I don't talk like them, in fact I didn't even realise the accent until I went back a few years ago. or they say "Gal Tes ayta?" our neighbour over there talks like that.
When I was in Armenia a few years ago, I met this lady from Baku, her Armenian was hard to understand but after a while you get used to it.
