[Noun]
editdialect (plural dialects)
1.(linguistics) A variety of a language that is characteristic of a particular area, community, or social group, differing from other varieties of the same language in relatively minor ways as regards grammar, phonology, and lexicon.
Hyponyms: sociolect, ethnolect, regiolect, geolect
2.1988, Andrew Radford, Transformational Grammar: A First Course, Cambridge, UK: Cambridge University Press, page 139:
And in addition, many dialects of English make no morphological distinction between Adjectives and Adverbs, and thus use Adjectives in contexts where the standard language requires -ly Adverbs
3.(derogatory) Language that is perceived as substandard or wrong.
4.1975, H. Carl, Linguistic Perspectives on Black English, page 219:
Well, those children don't speak dialect, not in this school. Maybe in the public schools, but not here.
5.1994, H. Nigel Thomas, Spirits in the Dark, Heinemann, page 11:
[…] on the second day, Miss Anderson gave the school a lecture on why it was wrong to speak dialect. She had ended by saying "Respectable people don't speak dialect."
6.1967, Roger W. Shuy, Discovering American Dialects, National Council of Teachers of English, page 1:
Many even deny it and say something like this: "No, we don't speak a dialect around here.
7.(colloquial) A language existing only in an oral or non-standardized form, especially a language spoken in a developing country or an isolated region.
Synonym: vernacular
8.(colloquial) A lect (often a regional or minority language) as part of a group or family of languages, especially if they are viewed as a single language, or if contrasted with a standardized idiom that is considered the 'true' form of the language (for example, Cantonese as contrasted with Mandarin Chinese, or Bavarian as contrasted with Standard German).
9.1995, Michael Clyne & Michael G. Clyne, The German Language in a Changing Europe, →ISBN, page 117:
The question could be put: 'Is there anything inherent in a dialect which gives it a negative stigma or is it that the status of the majority of the speakers is transferred to the dialect?' — something that occurs in many regions in different countries.
10.2010, Mirjam Fried, Jan-Ola Östman, & Jef Verschueren, Variation and Change: Pragmatic perspectives, →ISBN, page 61:
Bloomfield, for example, noted that “local dialects are spoken by the peasants and the poorest people of the towns” (1933: 50) though he also thought that the lower middle class spoke 'sub-standard' speech.
11.2014, Elizabeth Mary Wright, Rustic Speech and Folk-Lore:
Among common errors still persisting in the minds of educated people, one error which dies very hard is the theory that a dialect is an arbitrary distortion of the mother tongue, a wilful mispronunciation of the sounds, and disregard of the syntax of a standard language.
Synonyms: vernacular, (often derogatory) patois
12.(computing, programming) A variant of a non-standardized programming language.
Home computers in the 1980s had many incompatible dialects of BASIC.
13.(ornithology) A variant form of the vocalizations of a bird species restricted to a certain area or population.
14.1896, Alfred Newton, A Dictionary of Birds, page 893:
A curious question, which has as yet attracted but little attention, is whether the notes of the same species of Bird are in all countries alike. From my own observation I am inclined to think that they are not, and that there exist "dialects," so to speak, of the song.

[Etymology 1]
editFrom Middle English mayn, main, maine, mæin, meyn, from main (noun) (see further at etymology 2); compare Old English mægen- (“strong, main, principal”) (used in combination)[1] and Old Norse megn, megenn (“strong, main”). The word is cognate with Old High German megīn (“strong, mighty”) (modern German Möge, Vermögen (“power, wealth”)), and also akin to Old English magan (“to be able to”). See also may.
[Etymology 2]
editFrom Middle English mayn, main, maine, mæine, mæȝen, from Old English mæġen (“strength”),[2] from Proto-Germanic *maginą (“strength, power, might”), *maginaz (“strong”), from Proto-Indo-European *megʰ- (“be able”). The word is cognate with Old High German magen, megin, Old Norse magn, megn, megin, Old Saxon megin.[3] More recent senses are derived from the adjective.
[Etymology 3]
editOrigin uncertain; probably from the adjective main. Evidence is lacking for a derivation from French main (“hand”).[4]
