What is the situation with the Macedonian spoken Language in Aegean Macedonia (Greece)?
According to Dr. Kosta Peev although minimal, the Macedonian Language is still spoken. However due to the current situation in Greece, where the Macedonian Language is not allowed and is under powerful influence of a ‘foreign language system’ this language is in the process of quick decline as less and less people of the younger generation have a chance to hear it or speak it. Acceding to Dr. Kosta Peev and his work the Macedonian Language Spoken in the vicinity of Solun was the Language of the well known Macedonian brothers Kiril and Metodij who lived in the 9th Century in Macedonia and were the initiators, promoters And educators of all the Slavic Nations. There are archaic forms that have been preserved in the Solun (Salonica) Macedonian Dialect that are only present in the Macedonian Language.Originaly similar type of work was carried in the late 1800’by some Slovenian Educators . These are Vatroslav Oblak in 1896, and his Professor at the University of Vienna Vatroslav Jagic .Thes
