Speakers of any given language sometimes get offended when their particular language style is called a dialect. To avoid any confusion, I would therefore like to see what the term "dialect" means.
Conclusion
First of all the British local dialects can be traced back to Old English
dialects. Numerous and distinct, they are characterized by phonemic
and structural peculiarities. The local dialects are being gradually
replaced by regional variants of the literary language, i.e. by a literary
standard with a proportion of local dialect features. Moreover, Local
variations in the USA are relatively small. What is called by tradition
American dialects is closer in nature to regional variants of the national
literary language.
