Kesen dialect (気仙方言, Kesen hōgen) or Kesen (ケセン語, Kesengo, Kesengo) is a Japanese dialect spoken in Kesen County, Iwate Prefecture, Japan.
Kesen has been described by Harutsugu Yamaura (山浦玄嗣, Yamaura Harutsugu). Yamaura considers Kesen an independent language, related to both Japanese and Ainu languages, but this is not accepted by other linguists.[1]
