Abstract
When non-native clinical nurses and care workers provide care to native Japanese speakers, the use of dialect words denoting human body parts and physical symptoms might create communication barriers between them. We have thus developed a system that indicates dialect words corresponding to body parts on PCs and tablets. The system displays an illustration of the head and entire body (front and back sides); dialect words pop up when a user clicks or taps on a body part. The user can change the local region and dialect by using pull-down menus. This system will help both non-native workers and native Japanese people who are unfamiliar with the dialect.
