NORMATIVE. A term in
LINGUISTICS and
EDUCATION for belonging to or serving to establish and maintain a norm, as in
normative grammar. If a language, variety of a language, or culture depends for its norms on another community, it is
exonormative; if it does not, it is
endonormative. Most colonies and many post-colonial societies have exonormative rules: until recently AusE was exonormative in terms of BrE, but has in recent years become increasingly endonormative.
