Grekelin split from [[w:Medieval Greek|Medieval Greek]] around the 11th century with the mass settlement of Hungary by [[w:Greeks|Greek]] refugees, and has since then split for more than 10 centuries from Greek. For the largest part of its existence, Grekelin was mostly a spoken language, and the language began systematically being written down around the 19th century (From where it gained it's modern orthography by Catholics). Due to its low prestige, most of its educated speakers preferred writing in Koine, Latin or Hungarian before and few texts were written until then in Grekelin, most of which used the Greek script instead (See [[Old Grekelin]]), leading to multiple archaisms appearing within the language (Eg. Greek and most Greek dialects use the verb "Φτιάχνω" /ˈftia.xno/ whereas Grekelin uses the verb "Peio" (pʲɪ̯o) from Ancient Greek "ποιέω/ποιώ". | ||
As a related language to Greek, Grekelin shares with Greek multiple features and cognates. However the language has become an SOV one (As opposed to most Indo-European languages which are SVO) due to extensive Hungarian influence. It's vocabulary has almost mostly remained Greek however Hungarian words can be found often in the language, due to the strong adstratum formed by Hungarian (Though, due to geography, the Slavic dialect got its name from its stronger Slavic influence). Grekelin is the most isolated Hellenic language currently in the entire world, with about 1200 kilometers of language seperation. | As a related language to Greek, Grekelin shares with Greek multiple features and cognates.
