A language is a dialect with an army and navy
"A language is a dialect with an army and navy" is one of the most frequently used aphorisms in the discussion of the distinction between dialect and language.It points out the influence that political conditions can have over a community's perception of the status of a language or dialect.The aphorism is often incorrectly attributed to the Yiddish linguist Max Weinreich,who published but did not coin it.
