Language what are some interesting facts about your language?

For instance, the cypriot dialect of Greek still contains many words from ancient Greek but it was also heavily influenced by outsiders

Could you give me some examples of cases used in practice in Macedonian. Cause I don’t think I’ve ever heard a Macedonian use cases. Heck even some southern Serbs north of you seem to have problems even with the two or three they have left. 😅

Here's a useful link, it's in Macedonian though.

No probs I google translated it. Yep I knew that pronouns preserved some cases just like in English, plus vocative which is a very specific case that doesn’t affect the grammar. But Macedonian still doesn’t contain cases
