    Well it is a good beginning of a debate concerning the Doric Language…Euge!! Few things about the language:

    The Doric found in the Peloponnesus - Laconian-Heraclean, Messenia, Argos and Mycenae, in the Acte peninsula as in Epidaurus and in Aegina, and in Megara and its colonies, in addition of central Greece and colonies as in Byzantium. It was also spoken in Sicily as in Selinus, and at the Corinthian colonies, such as Syracuse, Gela and Agrigentum, in Cyrene in Africa and in Melos, Coan-Calymnian, in Kos and Kalymnos, Cretan, and in Crete.

    Hopefully, I m going to find a table for comparison of Attik-Doric language, soon.

    Yours,

    Nikolaos Cleomenes
