of language death, and in particular the significant admixture of non-Indo-European linguistic features into an Indo-European language. This process was pronounced in southwestern Cappadocia, and included the introduction of vowel harmony and verb-final word order. Characteristics The Greek element in Cappadocian is to a large extent Byzantine, e.g. or 'door' from (Ancient and) Byzantine Greek (Modern Greek ), or 'I did' from Byzantine Greek (Modern Greek ). Other, pre-Byzantine, archaisms are the use of the possessive adjectives , etc. from Ancient Greek , etc. and the formation of the imperfect by means of the suffix from the Ancient Greek (Ionic) iterative suffix . Turkish influence appears at every level. The Cappadocian sound system includes the Turkish vowels , , , and the Turkish consonants , , , , , , , although some of these are also found in modern Greek words as a result of palatalization. Turkish vowel harmony is found in forms such as 'I think', aor. 3sg < (Malakopi), from Turkish , < 'king' (Delmeso), from Turkish . Cappadocian noun morphology is characterized by the emergence of a generalized agglutinative declension and the progressive loss of grammatical gender distinctions, e.g. 'the (neuter) woman (feminine)', genitive , plural , genitive (Uluağaç). Another Turkish feature is the morphological marking of definiteness in the accusative case, e.g. 'wolf (nominative / unmarked indefinite accusative)' vs. 'wolf (marked definite accusative)'. Agglutinative forms are also found in the verb system such as the pluperfect 'I had come' (lit. 'I came I was') (Delmeso) on the model of Turkish (). Although Cappadocian word order is essentially governed by discourse considerations such as topic and focus, there is a tendency towards the Turkish subject–object–verb word order with its typological correlates (suffixation and pre-nominal grammatical modifiers). The commonality among all Greek Cappadocian dialects is that they evolved from Byzantine Greek under the influence of Turkish. On the other hand, those dialects evolved in isolated villages. This has resulted in a variety of Greek Cappadocian dialects. Revitalisation Although Cappadocian Greek was once believed to be a dead language, the discovery of a population of speakers has led to an increase in awareness, both within and outside of the Cappadocian community in Greece. In the documentary Last Words, which follows Mark Janse through Cappadocian-speaking villages on the Greek mainland, community members are seen encouraging each other to use their dialect for ordinary things, such as joke telling.
