The Beautiful little Village in ITALY Built by the Greeks. Its Inhabitants Speak Greek (What Calabrian Greek sounds like)

Here in Bova, everything is Greek: the style of the houses, nameplates, and signposts. This is the capital of Greek culture in Calabria. The pride of the village, with just five hundred souls and which looks out towards Sicily and the snow-capped Mount Etna, is the palaeontology museum. Not to be missed is the lestopitta, a flat bread fried in olive oil.

Hearing Calabrian Greek spoken in the villages of Gallicianò and Bova. For those who speak Greek, I didn't find it to be ancient or Doric sounding at all. There are some words that certainly are old ("outhe" for "no", "chloro" for the color green, "anthos" for flower, "platego" for "to speak" which probably comes from "politeuo" (πολιτευω) which means "to act like a citizen/speak in a public forum" etc.).
