dialects

Dialect refers to a regional or social variation of a language, characterized by unique pronunciation, vocabulary, and grammatical patterns. It reflects the local culture, history, and community influences. While speakers of the same language can generally understand each other regardless of dialect differences, these variations highlight the diversity within a language. For example, American English and British English are dialects of English, with differences in pronunciation and word usage. Dialects help preserve cultural identity and illustrate how language evolves differently across regions and social groups.
