Coexistence of two varieties of the same language in a speech community, with each variety being more or less standardized and occupying a distinct sociolinguistic niche. Typically, one variety is more formal or prestigious while the other is more suited to informal conversation or is taken as a mark of lower social status or less education. Classic diglossic situations can be found in Arabic-speaking communities, where Modern Standard Arabic coexists with dozens of regional Arabic dialects, and among speakers of Dravidian languages such as Tamil, where different words for basic concepts such as "house" or "water" are chosen depending on the speaker's caste or religion.

What is a diglossic situation?
A diglossic situation refers to a sociolinguistic environment where two distinct varieties of a language are used by a community, typically with one variety being regarded as "high" (more formal, prestigious, and used in official settings) and the other as "low" (more informal, used in everyday conversation). This often occurs in multilingual societies where the high variety is used in education, literature, and formal discourse, while the low variety is employed in casual communication. A classic example is the use of Modern Standard Arabic in formal contexts alongside various regional dialects in everyday speech.
