    Vernacular language is the one spoken by people when they are in an informal context, like they are everyday at home.

    Explanation:

    While Standard English is commonly spoken in formal institutions, like schools and universities or government entities when they want to communicate with people for example, vernacular language is usually spoken by people in an informal context.

    An example of Standard English vs vernacular language would be:

    Standard English: "I am not going to take care of this situation".

    Vernacular language: "I'm not gonna deal with this situation".

    Vernacular language makes use of contracted forms and phrasal verbs more widely than Standard English.

    Answer:vernacular language is probably your own home language that you can speak amongst the people of the same society, so since it's a local language one will probably speak this language in their local society amongst the people of the same society who are most likely familiar with the language.

    Like in my society when we say water the pronunciation is 'th' at the end when standard English and mostly American English it's there is an 'r' sound at the end of water.
