A version of a language spoken in a particular geographical area or by a particular group of people. The English spoken in Newcastle is different from that spoken by natives of North Cornwall. Not only do speakers in these two areas have a different accent, they also use a number of different words. Different dialects also use slightly different grammar, too. For example, in Devon some people say ‘They do have. . .’ in preference to ‘They have . . .’ Such regional expressions are not ‘wrong’, they simply differ from Standard English. They are sometime described as ‘non-standard.
