Summary/Abstract: This paper presents the characteristics of the so-called folk linguistic awareness based on the assumptions of D.R. Preston and the American school of folk linguistics. This type of awareness is characterised by the following distinguishing features: explicit availability, degree of accuracy, level of detail, and ability to control various language variants. These determinants, which can be exemplified by the substance of the Polish language and the language used by the Polish community abroad, had not been used in the Polish research on linguistic awareness before.
