When to use たる
Vたる is commonly used with somebody you're on good terms with, such as between friends or a parent and a child.
Request Vたって and report Vたって
In Kansai-ben, depending on the intonation, Vたって can be used as either a request or to report something. Vたって with a flat intonation is used as a request; with falling intonation it is used as to report something.
Vたって| request | 田中さん、この写真見たって。 | Hey Tanaka, would you look at this picture? |
|---|
| report | 田中さん、この写真見たって。 | I heard that Tanaka looked at this picture. |

| Kansai-ben | もう許したってや。 |
