Hi.
'Diaglossia is a relatively stable language situation in which, in addition to the primary dialects of the language(which may include a standard or regional standard), there is a very divergent, highly codified(often grammatically more complex) superimposed variety, the vehicle of a large and respected body of written literature, either of an earlier period or in another speech community, which is learned largely by formal education and is used for most written and formal spoken purposes but is not used by any sector of the community for ordinary conversation.' Ferguson(1959)
Does standard and regional standard refer to the dialects of a language? Thank you in advance.
