Define this statement as standard, slang, jargon, dialect, or ungrammatical. I catched a fish.

This statement is ungrammatical, which means it is not standard (the standard form of the irregular verb catch is caught). Slang is an informal use of language, characteristic mostly of teenagers. Jargon is specific to a profession, and dialect is a speech used by a social group or people living in a certain region.
