Abstract:
The position of Ancient Macedonian within the Greek dialects is discussed here extensively. A brief overview and reconsideration of the linguistic structure of Ancient Macedonian in regard to the "Greekness" of the dialect is undertaken to show that Hoffmann's, Kalleris' and Hatzidakis' argumefis are both methodologically sound and linguistically convincing. On the basis of a number of structural features of Ancient Macedonian, diachronically considered, it is argued that the main character of the dialect is Doric, more precisely Northwestern (or Western) Greek rather than Aeolic. The overall question of Greek dialect classification (Mycenaean Greek included) is discussed. The famous "Mediae question" (β, δ, γ instead of φ, θ, χ) in Macedonian Greek is only generally touched upon here as it is extensively examined by the present author elsewhere.
