Actually kalispera, since its afternoon here in Athens.Can you give us a couple of extracts of this famous book that, as you say, is written in ancient Macedonian language?
Are there ANY samples of this ancient Macedonian language anywhere?
Where was this book before it was published in Venice in 1848?
Was it published ever after? In which libraries can ot be found?
Are there any references on this book from scholars or researchers?
When you say Macedonian letters you mean Slavic ones?
Perhaps you can share a couple of scanned pages for us to share?
When you say Macedonian language is it possible that you mean the Greek "Koine" that was spread by Alexander all over his empire? It derives from Attic Greek you know :-)
Oh well, so many questions, so few answers... (actually no answers at all but the opposite would be a surprise from your side)

Hi Susan,Thanks for that, the main problem is that i don't know Greek, even is hard to read.. But on the top of the text there is word PROLIMION or simular, I don't know what is that mean, but in this version in Macedonian with Greek alphabet there is simular word- PROLOGK, it means INTRODUCTION, or simular. The author of this book (the book have around 30 pages, with some explanations and translate it is about 60 pages), has his name on the bottom of PROLOGK- introduction, and is written- ATANAZ MAKENTONETZ (ATANAS MAKEDONEC I.E. ATANAS THE MACEDONIAN), YEAR 1845!....

Ha ha ha...Kalimera, sorry Kalispera file,...
Kalispera or malispera is same for me my friend, I don't know any of this, but I have Greeks and Vlachs friends, so we are making jokes ...You should follow our way of making friendship... Again, KOINE is MAKEDONIAN ESPERANTO from ALEXANDER
and means KOI+NE= KOI-NE-SE= THOSE WHO ARE NOT so these language- Macedonian esperanto was for those who were not Macedonians. Alexander was talking in Macedonian to Macedonians and for all others there was esperanto KOINE ! On the other hand this means KOVAN- i.e. process when somone is making money, koins=koin=koine... For the other side of your enq. check post from and to SUSAN ! NAFIGOME...

Sorry, I cannot understand exactly what your message says, but if you are saying at the beginning what I think you are, then you seem to have got the impression that I don't believe the diary of Anne Frank was written by Anne Frank.I don't know how you got to that assumption. All I am talking about it this *supposed* 'diary' written by Alexander; I have never made a reference to Anne Frank, or any other book.I don't know whether that makes any difference to your argument, because I'm afraid I don't understand what your argument is.All the bestMarcus

No, common = the language of the common people.Please, what have I done to deserve this! Why must I reply to this tsunami of cretinism? Please Vasko, go back in posting waffling posts that no-one understands and no-one takes seriously. Don't become specific, because once we begin to even slightly understand what goes into your mind, trust me, it's terrifying...
