Standard dialect refers to a form of language that is widely accepted as the norm within a particular community or country. It often serves as the official language used in education, media, and formal communication. This dialect typically follows established grammar, vocabulary, and pronunciation rules, making it easier for speakers from different regions to understand each other. In many places, such as the United States or United Kingdom, standard dialects can vary significantly. For example, American English and British English are both considered standard dialects, yet they have distinct differences in spelling, pronunciation, and some vocabulary.
