What does the phrase 「やのう」 mean?


I came across the phrase in the following sentence.

> ええ度{ど}胸{きょう} **やのう** こまいの...けなげやで

The guy who said it is a Kansai speaker. I'm not sure if the phrase is related
to the dialect.




This is western Japan dialect which is equivalent to だなあ in standard Japanese.

It's a part of Kansai dialect in the broader sense, but I think this のう is not
very common in typical Kansai-ben spoken in Osaka. AFAIK It's mainly used in
Chugoku/Shioku, which is located further west from Osaka.
