-
- Another FAQ!!!! See W. Sidney Allen's Vox Graeca.
-
- I would also recommend:
-
- Robert Browning, Medieval and Modern Greek, Cambridge University
- Press, which goes through the phonological, morphological, and (more
- sketchily) syntactic changes from the Koine period up through the
- Modern Period.
-
- Carl Darling Buck, The Greek Dialects. I believe Buck discusses
- pronunciation differences between ancient dialects, in addition to the
- paradigm differences, but it's been a long time since I last looked
- into it.
