The complete phrase is: 「日本中で、ばえていくけん！」.

With the けん at the end, I thought it might have been something from a Kyushu
dialect, but the person who said this is from Tottori.

The only part I'm really having trouble with is the verb 「ばえていく」. I tried
looking up ばえる and ばう as potential verb roots, but they don't seem to exist.
Has anyone every heard of this?

question

What is the meaning of: 「ばえていくけん」?
ばえる means 騒ぐ in 鳥取弁, the dialect of
[Tottori](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tottori_Prefecture).

けん is mostly used in the 九州 area and some parts of 四国 and can mean a range of
things. I am most familiar with から and some kinds of よ:

### から

  * 今日は寒い **けん** 、コートを着た方がいいよ
  * 今日は寒い **から** 、コートを着た方がいいよ

### よ

  * お茶いれた **けん**
  * お茶いれた **よ**

Or

  * いや、昨日めちゃめちゃ面白かったんだ **よ** な〜
  * いや、昨日めちゃおもろかった **けん** な〜
