Description: This book presents a pioneering attempt to uncover the Greek roots of the Bourbonnais dialect, spoken in France's Allier department. Painstakingly assembled over many years by the author, a local scholar, the book draws on a remarkable range of primary evidence to explore the deep historical links between Greek-speaking peoples and the region of Bourbonnais. Amidst compelling etymological comparisons between Bourbonnais words and their Greek counterparts, the author shines a light on shared traditions and beliefs, revealing intriguing connections between the ancient world and the living language of today. This book is a fascinating read not only for those interested in the Bourbonnais dialect but also for anyone seeking to understand the diverse tapestry of linguistic and cultural influences that have shaped French history.
