    Default Konon dialekton (i think is what it's called)

    Merry christmas and happy new year to all
    a few days ago i finished reading herodotus's stories and xenophon's anabasis. when i confronted the two greek versions and noticed the two "dialects" are not that different, at least for the passages i've read. so what were the real differences in the various greek dialects? like spartan or siracusan? and for that matter what did the makedons, the epeirotes and the getai speak?
    During this vacation I'm not at home so i wont be able to reply to your answers soon.
    thx in advance Cyrus
    P.S. i meant to write iin the title Koinon dialekton.

    Italians do it better! Chi dice donna dice guai. Abbi donna di te minore, se vuoi essere signore. Donne e buoi dei paesi tuoi. Fiume, grondaia e donna parlatora mandano l'uomo di casa fuora.
    And my personal favorite: "Non rimuovere il confine antico fissato dai tuoi padri". In english: "Do not remove the anchent border placed by your fathers". It looses something in the translation......
