The Tohoku use of だ


In Tohoku, だ can follow verbs and い-adjectives, as I've heard (I've never
actually spoken to someone from Tohoku). What purpose does it serve? Is a
sentence ending in just a verb ungrammatical in Tohoku? And is this form used
by Tohoku women?




That's a misconception. In Tohoku dialect, the copula だ doesn't follow verbs
and i-adjective.

It seems some dialect(s) in Kanto or around there has/have that form. But I'm
not sure.
