おどはん（お父さん）　針仕事習って上手になればいつかは着物や浴衣が縫えるようになる­だろ

んだば（だけど）、学問したら何の役に立つんだろう？

んー学問は針仕事の様には役に立たねえかもの

んーいいかカヤノ、学問しえば（すれば）自分の頭で物を考える事­出来る様になる、考える力が付く

この先世の中どう変わっても考える力持っていれば、なんとかして­生きていく事が出来る

これは男っ子も女っ子も同じ事だ

Daughter: If I take lessons for sawing, someday, I will be able to make kimono (for sale). If I take lessons for education (here, they mean philosophy, literature, mainly Confucianism), what use could I make of it?

Seibei: Education might not be useful in the way sawing is...but the one with education has ability to think for him/herself. When one has that ability, no matter what turn the world takes, he or she can survive somehow. It is the same for boys or girls. .
