Edinstveni Makedonski Zborovi - Unique Macedonian Words (postable)

[sydney]

This thread has been interesting reading.

Not sure if its on topic, but I found really interesting the "made up language" some majstori or selani used. The saying in our family is that they did it so the Turks wouldn't understand them.

I found this on the Maceonian wikipedia:

https://mk.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%A2%D0%B0%D0%B5%D0%BD_%D1%98%D0%B0%D0%B7%D0%B8%D0%BA_%D0%BD%D0%B0_%D1%81%D0%BC%D0%B8%D0%BB%D0%B5%D0%B2%D1%81%D0%BA%D0%B8%D1%82%D0%B5_%D1%95%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B0%D1%80%D0%B8

And here is the pdf: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/F...1%80%D0%B8.pdf

Does anyone know of any other regions of Macedonia where made up languages or secret languages were used?

Great post. I can’t ever remember hearing about this. I can connect with a handful of words and have learned some news ones such as трлач

[Liberator of Makedonija]

оти? / оти – „Зошто?“ / „Затоа што“

We say this in Kostur as well.

I think the word "карпа" is really interesting. It means a large rock or rock formation and as far as I could find is not a word used by the Serbians, Bulgarians or Greeks.

Then you take something like the Carpathian mountains (which really are rocky mountains), which is the toponym by which they were known at around 100AD and the word becomes even more interesting as a uniquely Macedonian word.

Фиромјанин

Човек-патриот што става слики со сонцето од вергина и карта на Голема Македонија на Фејсбук, а летуе у Грчка и од страв лаже дека е од Србија.

Поправилно требаше и да пиши:

Исто така, човек-лажен-патриот кои клава слики од вентилаторот и се гордеј кога Македонија е претставена како ФИРОМ пред светот.

[Tomche Makedonche]

Anybody else heard of or used the word коцкандо (little), as in коцкандо бебе? I was speaking to a friend from Prilep and he says they use кокицко as an equivalent word. Interested to know its origin and if it is unique to Bitola.

[dekapentaugoustos]

Pila in Latin means column or in normal italian a stack (hence a stack of rocks). However stone/s in Greek and Latin is "petra'. Therefore the word 'Spila' could mean exactly as translated.. A pile of rocks

In ancient Greek pilos (πίλος) means hat, and mostly this type of hat that looks like a pile (other types of hats had different names). Modern Greeks do not use ANY word (close to 'spila' or not) for a pile of rocks.



The word pylon (πυλών) also comes to mind. While it started refering to the egyptian gateway of this type



it ended up meaning cone or what we know today as:
