Read this excerpt from a short story. Ana's family had relocated to Hawaii when her mother accepted a job at the naval base. Her classmates at her new school were welcoming, but Ana had not made any close friends yet. One afternoon, a classmate skated by on her way to the beach. "Hey, Ana! I'm meeting Kia to surf Paia Bay. The waves are solid, and there's a luau at Mama's at 6:00. Wanna come?" Ana responded with a smile and called to her mom, "Mom! I'm going to the beach to surf for a while. I'll call you later." Then she grabbed her own surfboard and followed her new friend, wondering how the afternoon would unfold. Which line from the story contains dialect?

    The waves are solid, and there's a laua at Mama's at 6:00. Wanna come?

    Explanation:

    Both of these sentences show dialect. The first sentences states that the waves are 'solid' - which would be regional reference and they are going to 'Mama's' which would also indicated a dialect, along with 'wanna' in the second sentence.
