Etymology
譌 combines 言 (speech) with 爲, which likely contributes the sound and may relate to change or deviation, suggesting speech that deviates from the norm.
Meaning mnemonic
Words (言) that are 'off' or changed (爲 can suggest alteration) become a local accent or dialect.
Reading mnemonic
For カ, imagine a car with a distinct regional accent honking: car -> カ, and its unique sound represents a dialect.
