Standard Language and the Processes of Language Standardization and Destandardization
Original language description
The term 'standard language' typically refers to a codified language consisting of variants that co-occur in formal contexts and are systematically taught and promoted in educational settings. It is a socially conditioned phenomenon shaped within culturally developed language communities. The quantitative approach identifies the standard with respect to (the most) frequently occurring variants. In contrast, the qualitative approach treats high frequencies as a hypothesis, suggesting, rather than proving, that such variants are standard. Metalinguistic data on users' behavior toward language, their social status, power as well as the contexts in which standards are negotiated are indispensable.
