Do you like to speak your dialect or central Thai language?

For me, It depend on the place where are you stay and who is you talk to. Example If you are E-san people you like to speak dialect when you are stay at home with your family or stay with your close friend. Addition, If your are speak with your teacher your must be speak with central Thai language.

I use both interlanguage and dialect language.
I think it depends on situation and time.
If I have to present or contact with adult, I always use interlanguage.
For my friends, I sometimes use dialect language.

Actaully I use Cretral Thai language with both my family and friends.
But when I was in high school I always use dialect language with my friend in school.
My dialect language called 'Phimai' and it's fun to talk like that.
Well since I entern to the university i hardly ever have oppertunity to use Phimai at all.
My friends here are using I-saan, and I can't speak like that.

I like to speak Isan with my family and sometimes with my friends.
When I was in high school, I seldom spoke Isan with my friends because most of them can't speak Isan.
So I spoke central Thai with them. I have spoken Isan with friends since I have studied in University.
My friends are from many provinces so there are many new words for me to learn. I think it is good because we can preserve our language.

I usually speak my dialect or Esarn language to my parents, my sisters, and my friends.
When I am at university, I speak central Thai language to my teachers.
I still remember that when I study at high school the teachers set the rules
not to speak Esarn to teachers in class because most of us speak it.
It's the way to control us to speak properly.
We should speak central Thai in formal purpose.

I like to speak my dialect language but my friend told me to
stop speaking. The reason is I speak with a rural accent.
My friend told me that they feel annoy when I speak dialect language.
But I keep speak it out. Haha

I use both of those languages. I prefer to speak my dialect language when I
am at home. My dialect language is Khmer language. With friends who speak
Khmer, I would speak Khmer to them. But I am here Mahasarakham I almost
use Thai language to speak to my friends. Most of my friends speak Isaan.
I cannot speak Isaan, I can understand it though.
