1. Dialect cardThe dialect card (Japanese: 方言札, hōgen fuda) was a card on a necklace once used in Japanese schools, designating the wearer as having transgressed by speaking the Okinawan language. The card was voluntarily adopted by Okinawan students at the start of the 20th century, but became mandatory as assimilation policies increased following 1917.
