vernacular language
Vernacular language refers to the everyday speech used by ordinary people in a specific region or community. It often includes local dialects, slang, and expressions that may not be understood by outsiders. This type of language reflects the culture, traditions, and identity of its speakers.
In contrast to formal language, which is used in official settings like education and government, vernacular language is more relaxed and informal. It can vary significantly from one place to another, even within the same country, showcasing the diversity of human communication. Examples include African American Vernacular English and regional dialects in England.
