Tsakonian is a modern Greek language, spoken in the eponymous Tsakonia region of the Peloponnese Peninsula. It is the only living descendent of old Doric, the language once spoken by the people of Ancient Sparta. Though the Tsakonian-speaking community is small, numbering no more than a couple hundred speakers, the language has three distinct dialects, 'Northern', 'Southern' and 'Propontis'. Read more on Wikipedia: http://bit.ly/1Yv8JbG.
The story of a Greek town that I'm told still preserves the Spartan tongue. I explore why they don't speak like the rest of Greece and dig into their connection to ancient Sparta. Will their Tsakonian language survive?

The man from Leonidio is a "headmaster", not "schoolmaster". His story and links to the recordings are in my sources doc below.
~ SUMMARY ~
Ancient Greece was home to a variety of dialects. Athens and Sparta both put up a major fight. Long story short, the dialect of one of those cities won out. Guess which? Athens, of course. Attic Greek combined with a hefty dose of Ionic to form the Koiné (Common) Greek, the ancestor of basically all modern Greek dialects.
All but perhaps one. Travel to a small town in the south of Greece, where a headmaster leads his students up the hillsides to record the words of their elders. These aging villagers speak Tsakonian (Τσακώνικα), a special remnant that may soon crumble into another Greek artifact.
I look at pieces of the grammar and pronunciation of the language, and show you what sets it apart from Modern Greek. Search for any ancient holdouts it preserves. Consider its connection to the Doric dialect of Ancient Sparta. Finally, ponder its place in modern Greece and how much longer it will be with us.

It is sub-diveded into 3 dialects: Northern Tsakonian (Kastanista-Sitena), Southern Tsakonian (Prastos and villages surrounding Leonidio), and Propontis Tsakonian (last known speaker was in 1970's).

Recorded in the United States.
Greek is spoken by some thirteen million people, principally in the Mediterranean nation of Greece, and by significant communities in Eastern Europe and North America. An Indo-European language, it shares genealogical roots with many mother tongues across Europe and southern Asia; however, it is most closely related to modern varieties of Ionic and Doric Greek, such as Tsakonian. A literary language since at least the 12th century BCE, Greek has been the medium of many foundational texts of Western philosophy and literature, as well as Abrahamic religion, especially Christianity.

The Long Awaited sequel.
Part One https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j03ZjQZYLic&t;=3s
, part one has languages such as Ladin,Yiddish,Romansh, Piedmontese, Luxembourgish,Basque,Asturian,Mirandese,Tsakonian and Livonian so don't be upset if you don't see these languages in part two. Part two has Galician,Occitan,Sardinian,Sicilian,Jerrias(or whatever) Irish(debatable if it is a minority language but whatever) Aromanian,Frisian,Scots, and Northern Sami. The next episode most probably will have Corsican,Cornish,Welsh,Crimean Tatar and who knows what else.

Griko, sometimes spelled Grico, is a form of the Greek language which is spoken by the Griko people in southern Italy. The Greeks consider it as a Modern Greek dialect and often call it Katoitaliotika (Greek: Κατωιταλιώτικα, "Southern Italian") or Grekanika (Γραικάνικα). Griko and Standard Modern Greek are mutually intelligible to some extent.

Tsakonian language
Tsakonian or Tsaconian (τσακώνικα; also Tzakonian or Tsakonic) is a highly divergent modern variety of Greek, spoken in the Tsakonian region of the Peloponnese, Greece. Tsakonian derives from Doric Greek, being its only extant variant. Although it is conventionally treated as a dialect of Greek, some compendia treat it as a separate language. Tsakonian is critically endangered, with only a few hundred, mostly elderly, fluent speakers left. It is mutually unintelligible with Standard Modern Greek.
Etymology
It is named after its speakers, the Tsakonians, which in turn may be derived from 'exo-Laconians' 'Outer Lakonians'.
Geographic distribution
Tsakonian is found today in a group of mountain towns and villages slightly inland from the Argolic Gulf, although it was once spoken farther to the south and west as well as on the coasts of Laconia (ancient Sparta). There was formerly a Tsakonian colony on the Sea of Marmara (or Propontis; two villages near Gönen, Vatika and Havoutsi), probably dating from the 18th century, whose members were resettled in Greece with the 1924 population exchanges. Propontis Tsakonian appears to have died out around 1970.

The man from Leonidio is a "headmaster", not "schoolmaster". His story and links to the recordings are in my sources doc below.
~ SUMMARY ~
Ancient Greece was home to a variety of dialects. Athens and Sparta both put up a major fight. Long story short, the dialect of one of those cities won out. Guess which? Athens, of course. Attic Greek combined with a hefty dose of Ionic to form the Koiné (Common) Greek, the ancestor of basically all modern Greek dialects.
All but perhaps one. Travel to a small town in the south of Greece, where a headmaster leads his students up the hillsides to record the words of their elders. These aging villagers speak Tsakonian (Τσακώνικα), a special remnant that may soon crumble into another Greek artifact.
I look at pieces of the grammar and pronunciation of the language, and show you what sets it apart from Modern Greek. Search for any ancient holdouts it preserves. Consider its connection to the Doric dialect of Ancient Sparta. Finally, ponder its place in modern Greece and how much longer it will be with us.

All but perhaps one. Travel to a small town in the south of Greece, where a headmaster leads his students up the hillsides to record the words of their elders. These aging villagers speak Tsakonian (Τσακώνικα), a special remnant that may soon crumble into another Greek artifact.
I look at pieces of the grammar and pronunciation of the language, and show you what sets it apart from Modern Greek. Search for any ancient holdouts it preserves. Consider its connection to the Doric dialect of Ancient Sparta. Finally, ponder its place in modern Greece and how much longer it will be with us.

Τσακώνικα http://el.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Τσακωνική_διάλεκτος is a moribund language, possibly derived from ancient Doric Greek http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doric_Greek, is spoken in some areas of Arcadia's Kynouria towns and villages such as Agios Andreas Άγιος Ανδρέας, Tyros Τυρός, Sapounakeika Σαπουνακαίικα, Pragmateftis Πραγματευτής, Melana Μέλανα, Vaskina Βασκίνα, Leonidio Λεωνίδιο, Korakovouni Κορακοβούνι, Prastos Πραστός, Sitena Σίταινα, Kastanitsa Καστάνιτσα.
It is sub-diveded into 3 dialects: Northern Tsakonian (Kastanista-Sitena), Southern Tsakonian (Prastos and villages surrounding Leonidio), and Propontis Tsakonian (last known speaker was in 1970's).

Recorded in the United States.
Greek is spoken by some thirteen million people, principally in the Mediterranean nation of Greece, and by significant communities in Eastern Europe and North America. An Indo-European language, it shares genealogical roots with many mother tongues across Europe and southern Asia; however, it is most closely related to modern varieties of Ionic and Doric Greek, such as Tsakonian. A literary language since at least the 12th century BCE, Greek has been the medium of many foundational texts of Western philosophy and literature, as well as Abrahamic religion, especially Christianity.

Griko, sometimes spelled Grico, is a form of the Greek language which is spoken by the Griko people in southern Italy. The Greeks consider it as a Modern Greek dialect and often call it Katoitaliotika (Greek: Κατωιταλιώτικα, "Southern Italian") or Grekanika (Γραικάνικα). Griko and Standard Modern Greek are mutually intelligible to some extent.
