Another documented dialect is Western Grekelin, which can also be considered a seperate language. It was spoken in Eastern Austria from a tiny group of people in the 17th century, before going extinct.
A more archaic and richer dialect is Western Grekelin. While not as diversified as the Slavic dialect, it remains a very interesting dialect. Some features include:
It's main feature was the loss of multiple sounds within the language, such as /ð/, /ɣ/, /θ/ and /d͡ʒ/, sounds that are very common in the other varieties of Grekelin. For example:
# /o/ becomes /u̯/ when unstressed
# Softening of /s/ and /k/ into /ʃ/ and /x/ respectively
# Preservation of the final /s/ (Which was lost in the other dialects) as a softer /ʃ/, except for the plural: Standard /o̯ˈr̩ɑˑnɑ/ (αυράνα) and Western /o̯ˈr̩ɑˑɳoʃ/ (αυράνοs)
# Preservation of the dative case (Different from the one in Slavic Grekelin). The dative case of this dialect remains from Attic Greek whereas Slavic Grekelin invented it due to excessive Slavic influence.


**Standard Grekelin (IPA)**:
[ɑː pʊˈɭɑːd͡ʒi ɱiː kiˈpʰɑːɣæ ɛɣʲ ˈɭɛːmɛʒi pʰɑˈɪː]
**Western Grekelin (IPA)**:
[a uˈlaˑʃi me ˈkepfaɡeŋ eŋ ˈt͡ɕaʈa pfaˈɡeŋ]
The language shows clearer German influence rather than Hungarian or Slavic, which may mean that it does not fall within the scope of Grekelin itself but another, similarly developed language that had a parallel course with Proto-Grekelin.
