"Καλώς ήρθατε" (στην τσακώνικη διάλεκτο)

 

Tsakonian is a unique variety of Modern Greek spoken in Tsakonia, a group of villages in the Kynouria district of the Eastern Peloponnese (part of the Prefecture of Arcadia). It is believed to be the only living descendant of Laconian, the dialect of ancient Sparta, and the only modern direct relative of the Doric or West Greek dialects of Ancient Greek. Nowadays spoken mainly by the older generation, it is described by Ethnologue as 'moribund' with '200 speakers'. The Tsakonians would probably dispute the number of speakers (closer to 2,000) although it is clear that the younger generation only has a passive knowledge of Tsakonian and in many families only the grandparents speak the language with any fluency.
