I'm Greek but I can't understand a lot of things without reading the subtitles... My grandpa is Cretan Greek, and sometimes he speaks in the Cretan dialect which I can't understand either. The Greek language is very diverse. Thanks for the video!
Greek and Greek are partially different from each other. There are common words in them. That's why you can understand it, but not completely. Greetings...
Μy late mother. A true inspiration in my life. So proud of her. She loved tradition and Cappadocia. A true princess. Wealth is not always about money. I wish she could have a little time more to live. Still devastated.
Wow! So exciting to see someone who speaks this ancient and extinct dialect of Greek. I am Turkish and I can catch lots of Turkish nouns, verbs etc. Such as hemen (immediately), ama (but), çocuk (kid), azarlamak (to tell off), tüm (all), toplanmak (to gather)… Thanks for this archival video. I appreciate all efforts to document authentic languages and dialects.
@@elemparador You are talking about "aman" this is a different word. "Άμα" is Greek (standard not only in Cappadocian) from Proto-Indo-European sṃ- (=αμ-) : ἅμα < ἅμ-α < ham-a < sam -a < sm-a.
Dear grandpa I understood half of those words which sound strange to Greeks, as all those words are either Turkish or Armenian (still used or borrowed by Turks). Greetings from Turkey, I just can dream to be living in the better times of Ottoman Empire with you, them, others, all together, living and contributing to the same community. Ala, I wish you a long and happy life. Greeks, don't hate Turks, not all the same, may our nations don't kill each other again. Ever.
I am sorry to say that, but I am happy that most of the Greeks live in peace and freedom now, which was not the case under the Ottoman rule. I am of Pontiac origin near Trabzon. Thank God, we have left our old homeland and went back to mother Greece. Not one of us has ever regretted that, believe me. We are much better off now. You again, should be thankful to the ancient Greeks and Romans, that have left you so much culture.I agree with you on one point: There should never be a war between our two peoples again. We should live together as good neighbours. Here I can see a problem with Turkish nationalism, I‘m afraid.

You might think she comes from one of the pontic villages near Trabzon like Çaykara. She sounds like my grandmother, but I don't believe that the Turks burned their dead and didn't bury them. There are also religious regulations among the Turks and burning is absolutely irreligious and unusual according to their traditions.

The reason why you can’t understand some sentences is she’s using many Turkish loanwords for instance Çoçuk = child etc.

"ama" is a Greek origin word!!!
@@occihum9115 Google says it is Arabic origin word. Why did you say it is Greek origin word?
@@elemparador
You are talking about "aman" this is a different word.
"Άμα" is Greek (standard not only in Cappadocian) from Proto-Indo-European sṃ- (=αμ-) : ἅμα < ἅμ-α < ham-a < sam -a < sm-a.
@@occihum9115 no i am talking about ama. Means "but" in Turkish
@@elemparador I don't know where Turks got "ama" from, arabic or Greek.
In Greek language though it's for sure etymologically Greek and means "if"

I understood it all I'm greek Cypriot
this makes me so happy
I kinda understand
Amazing, you can see how Κυπριακά was possibly influenced or vice versa.
I am Cappadocian and even though I don't know Greek, the phonetic is very familiar to me. She is also using some Turkish words.
I’m Armenian, this sounds like a Greek+Armenian mix. Beautiful!
No, It's Greek + Ancient Anatolian(luwian,hittite like). It has nothing to do with Armenian.
@@snakee2-p2k armenian, greek and ancient anatolian are all indo european so they have plenty to do with each other actually
I’m Cypriot - the phonetics sound like our Greek dialect

Some of the pronunciation reminds me of my in laws they are from the island of Lesbos especially the Sigma sounding like an SH sound
Πιστεύω ότι ακούω πολλές φράσεις που έχουμε και στα ποντιακα όπου έχουμε και τουρκικες λεξεις.Επηρεαζεται και λίγο από Κυπριακα.
Its veeeerrry strange. Im turkish and i feel like someone talking turkish, but like a foreigner i dont understand anything😳

Mumblings of an old woman...I have seen so many. They sometimes confuse memories with legends, stories, some think that they lived all those things..
