Does “DIGLOSSIA” exist in the Japanese language?
I ask this because I was just doing by Duolingo reps a while ago and I noticed this thing:

​
Kaze O Hi I Te Atama Ga Itai Desu
And then it asked me to choose as to which one is correct:
# A) 風
or
# B) 風邪
The funny thing is:
Both of these are pronounced as Kaze (checked this on Wiktionary).
So my noobish JLPT N5 brain is asking:
If “風” is “kaze” , then what the hell is this “邪” thing?
