This study covers the topic of relationship between standard and dialect languages. The goal of this study is to express opinions of linguists and normativists regarding ideas closely tied with other language planning processes. What they all have in common is, the desire to get rid of the discriminatory approach to social power, social status and dialectal language discrimination based on incorrect ideological beliefs and stereotypes. Common suggestions regarding neutralization of this problem focus on limiting the principle of linguistic territoriality, that is lowering the importance of linguistic individuality, thus improving the perception of dialects and their respective speakers.
