You might also be able to use "vernacular", which means the common language everyone knows, and specifically excludes the high elements applied by the elites. | |

| Sep 11, 2014 at 9:32 | comment | added | user66974 | @JanusBahsJacquet - good rephrasing, it clearly refers to a case of 'language gap'. | |
| Sep 11, 2014 at 9:13 | comment | added | Janus Bahs Jacquet | Your question was somewhat unclearly presented; I hope you don’t mind that I’ve taken the liberty of rephrasing it and fleshing it out a bit to make it clearer exactly what you’re asking (assuming I did not misunderstand you, that is!). | |
