Dialect

quote

Under this definition, the standard or national language would not itself be considered a dialect, as it is the dominant language in terms of linguistic prestige, social or political (e.g. official) status, predominance or prevalence, or all of the above. Dialect used this way implies a political connotation, being mostly used to refer to "low-prestige" languages (regardless of their actual degree of distance from the national language), languages lacking institutional support, or those perceived as "unsuitable for writing".[12] The designation dialect is also used popularly to refer to the unwritten or non-codified languages of developing countries or isolated areas,[13][14] where the term "vernacular language" would be preferred by linguists.[15
