[edit] Yet to do...
Just some brainstorming what might yet be added to this article:
- Discussion of research history (when was the common descent of most dialects from Koine established?)
- Syntax: position of clitic object pronouns (didn't Cretan or Cypriot preserve the post-verbal ones longer?)
- Some small transcribed dialect samples?
- Spoken dialect recordings, anybody?
- Some notes on the dialects of urban centers outside Greece? Constantinopolitan Greek, Alexandrian?
- Effects of dialect mixture after 1923 resettlements?
- A common map showing all the Greek-speaking dialect areas outside Greece together?

[edit] Suggestion
I don't know if in "Diglossia" we could include a sample: a text in two coloumns; first in katharevousa then in dimotiki. An article from the Constitution of Greece, initially written in simple katharevousa (and politonic) and "translated" in 1986 in dimotiki (and monotonic) would work fine I believe; if you agree with the idea, I think I could find both versions in dimotiki and katharevousa.--Yannismarou (talk) 15:05, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
