The article analyses the important role of Fran Miklošič and presents his efforts to balance the social and functional representation of Slovene text sources in the choice of material in comparative Slavic grammatical description and dictionaries, as well as in school practice in high school reading books. The social stratification of the Slovene standard language in the 19th century is exemplified by Miklošič's language use in correspondence and reading books.
