Standardology

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Standardology is a discipline within linguistics that studies the nature of standard languages and varieties, and the history of their creation.

Standardology is to be assigned to sociolinguistics in a broader sense and, in its diachronic aspect, to historical linguistics .

The term standardology was coined in 1972 by the Croatian Romance scholar Žarko Muljačić in the Croatian essay "Genetic, typological and standardological criteria for the classification of Romance languages".

In retrospect, standardology has existed as a linguistic research field in its own right since the theses of the Prague linguists' group of 1929 and the volume, also published in Czech by the Prague linguistic group in 1932 , The Czech written language and language culture , which contrary to its title also extends beyond the Czech language Laid the foundations for the theoretical study of standard languages.
