Summary/Abstract: We focused in this paper upon the term ‘dialect’, as it is defined by different linguists beginning with Ferdinand de Saussure (structural linguistics), continuing with sociolinguistics and ending with the authors of ‘Nouveau dictionnaire encyclopédique des sciences du langage’ (O. Ducrot, J. M. Schaeffer). The main observation is that the majority of linguists define the dialect in reference to language.
