Using dialects in meetings may indeed affect the speakers' level of respect. Reasons include: 1. **Communication barriers**: Dialects may make it difficult for attendees to understand what is being said, especially in a multicultural or multilingual environment. 2. **Authoritativeness**: Some people may believe that using standard language is more authoritative or formal, which makes people trust and value them. 3. **Sense of participation**: If most attendees use standard language, dialect users may feel excluded, which may affect their sense of participation and desire to express themselves. However, the specific situation depends on the nature of the meeting, the background and cultural habits of the participants. In some occasions, dialects may add a sense of intimacy and local characteristics, and even facilitate communication. Therefore, the use of language should be selected according to the specific environment and audience.
