Local dialect (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

vernacular

(Other definitions for vernacular that I've seen before include "Characteristic language" , "Local-style" , "Everyday language" , "Native language" , "Native tongue - dialect" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian, the USA Today, the King Feature Syndicate, The Times, the Wall Street Journal, the Family Time, The Sunday Times, the L.A. Times Daily and the New York Times.
