        The Romansh language is pluricentric; there have traditionally
been five written standards, called "idioms", roughly representing the
major dialect groups. The "Rumantsch Grischun" standard was introduced
in 1982 as a supraregional written standard for the entire Romansh
language. It is the form used, for example, by the Swiss government as
well as by the canton of Graub¨¹nden in material aimed at all Romansh
speakers. Other organisations, such as town or county administrations
or schools, may also use this standard form.
