Greek is Slavonic

[1%homeless]

Macedonian is really confusing. First I don’t even know what the heck this guy is talking about. http://www.maknews.com/html/articles/belchevsky1.html

Is just me or is he confusing ancient Macedonian with Modern Macedonian? From what I gather he is saying ancient Macedonian is a Slavonic language. Is (Alexandrian) Macedonian even an Indo-European language?

Then there is the Greek take on this. Macedonian is a Greek dialect ...? What kind of linguistics/philology are these people learning? I mean some of their ideas or views about ancient Greek phonetics are already peculiar. There must be a tremendous amount of political influence in their academic institutions.

Anyway, if anyone can point out some books or links about ancient Macedonian, please share.

Yeah, ancient and modern Macedonia is probably confusing you a bit. Thing is that the (modern) Greeks don't respect the state of Macedonia. It's very dangerous territory... avoid talking about with Greeks if at all possible.
Ancient Macedonia is a part of Greece, so they spoke Greek there (a Macedonian dialect though), whereas modern Macedonia is not Greece, it's Slavic and they don't speak Greek there.
