Literary Term: Dialect Dialect is a way of speaking that is common to people of a region or group. The words, pronunciations, and grammar of a dialect differ from those of the standard form of a language. Why would an author use dialect? To reveal the story’s setting, to make settings more vivid, and to add realism to narratives (stories) to reveal character traits and relationships (indirect characterization)
