Steinmetz Family Foundation Museum Fellow, Agora Excavations and Makriyannis Exhibition Wing Thanks to a grant from the Steinmetz Family Foundation, the American School of Classical Studies at Athens (ASCSA) is fortunate to invite applications for a one-year fellowship in museum education and collections management starting September 1, 2023, with the possibility of a one-year extension at the School’s discretion.

Lesson plans, online programs, and on-site programs, give students worldwide access to the stories and artifacts of generations of people who lived in Athens, one of the longest continuously settled communities in human history and the home of the world’s first democracy.

Greek dialect codes

by June Samaras

---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Christopher Robinson <0000268eec39b001-dmarc-request(a)lsv.uky.edu> Date: Mon, Jun 19, 2023, 8:13 a.m. CAUTION: External Sender ----- Forwarded Message ----- From: Martina Filosa <martina.filosa(a)gmail.com> To: "digitalclassicist(a)jiscmail.ac.uk" <digitalclassicist(a)jiscmail.ac.uk> Sent: Monday, June 19, 2023 at 07:54:52 AM EDT Subject: Re: [DIGITALCLASSICIST] Greek dialect codes Hi Gabby -- just to stir up the conversation a bit... (if it's off-topic, feel free to ignore the message ☺) I am aware that grc is meant to include also Medieval/Byzantine Greek. Greek in the 13th century is however very different from that in the 5th century B.C. Any thoughts on adding/proposing a language code also for Byzantine Greek? But, again, how to define it? Suggestions/input/criticism are much appreciated! Cheers, m. Le lun. 19 juin 2023 à 13:07, Gabriel Bodard < 000076ab495b8a66-dmarc-request(a)jiscmail.ac.uk<mailto: 000076ab495b8a66-dmarc-request(a)jiscmail.ac.uk>> a écrit : Following up in turn on Joel's 2018 (re)query of my 2007 (!) question: 1. the Wikipedia error that Chris reports seems to have been fixed; that page now correctly offers "el" or "gre" for modern Greek, and "grc" only for ancient Greek; 2. re dialects: I don't have any strong feelings about separating Epic/Homeric from more organic dialects such as Aeolic/Attic/Doric/Ionic/etc. Is there any practical reason to do so? I'm not sure what the philosophical reason would be… 3. would there be any appetite among DigiClass members for compiling, testing, documenting (and perhaps ultimately proposing for wider adoption) a short list of dialects? Some work was done on this by a workshop group over a decade ago (documented so far as I can see only in https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdocs.goog…), so it would probably not take long to pick up and complete.

But wikipedia claims grc is also be for Greek (modern) in 639-2/B https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fen.wikipe… That seems to be incorrect though: grc Greek, Ancient (to 1453) grec ancien (jusqu'à 1453) gre/ell el Greek, Modern (1453-) grec moderne (après 1453) https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.loc.go… It seems that registering secondary language subtags for classical Greek is easily done; it just needs a proposal (names and definitions) for the list, which has had some level of review from the community.

He didn’t get a response then, but this decade’s readership might have proposals or solutions. I see from a random sample of entries I’ve fetched from https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fservices.p… that Attic, Doric, Aeolic, Ionic are all candidates. But many times in the same field -- <cnt:dial/> -- we have epic and Homeric. Would it be improper to treat the latter group the same as the former? If so, then what is the practical alternative for the relatively straightforward <body xml:lang="grc-Homeric">…</body>? Whether or not a formal IANA application was eventually written, it’s probably worth documenting suggestions on the classicist wiki (which I can’t seem to access right now; my archival search suggests the topic is still terra incognita).

In particular, has anyone tried to compile a list of dialects and propose 5- to 8-character codes for them to the IANA registry (as described at https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ietf.o… and listed at https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.iana.o… )? So for example, the Aeolic dialect might be expressed using the xml:lang attribute with the value: xml:lang="grc-Aeolic" (where "grc" is the 3-letter code for classical Greek, there not being a 2-letter code like "el" for modern Greek) Thanks in advance for any advice or suggestions.
