e/Varieties of Modern Greek

New Query

Information
has glosseng: The linguistic varieties of Modern Greek can be classified along two principal dimensions. First, there is a long tradition of sociolectal variation between the natural, popular spoken language on the one hand and archaizing, learned written forms on the other. Second, there is regional variation between dialects. The competition between the popular and the learned registers (see Diglossia), culminated in the struggle between Dimotiki (Demotic Greek) and Katharevousa during the 19th and 20th centuries. As for regional dialects, variation within the bulk of dialects of present-day Greece is not particularly strong, except for a number of outlying, highly divergent dialects spoken by isolated communities.

has glosspor: Os dialetos do grego moderno podem ser classificados ao longo de duas distinções principais: primeiro, há uma longa tradição de variação sociolectal entre a língua natural, popular e falada, por um lado, e as formas cultas, escritas e arcaizantes, pelo outro; e, segundo, existe também a variação regional entre os dialetos propriamente ditos. A competição entre os registros popular e erudito, conhecida como diglossia, culminou com a disputa entre o dimotiki (δημοτική, "demótico") e o catarévussa (καθαρεύουσα, transl. katharévousa), durante os séculos XIX e XX. Quanto aos dialetos regionais, a diferenciação entre o corpo de dialetos da Grécia atual não é particularmente intensa, com a exceção de um número de dialetos periféricos e altamente divergentes, falados por comunidades isoladas.
