dialecte m (plural dialectes)
- (linguistics) language socially subordinate to a regional or national standard language, often historically cognate to the standard, but not a variety of it or in any other sense derived from it
- (colloquial) dialect
Usage notes
- The first meaning is technical and widely used in linguistic literature. Under the influence of English and translations, the word has also acquired the second, non-technical meaning; instead, technical literature prefers the expression français régional (or "any language" + régional).
