demoticist การใช้

• He was also determined to claim sole credit for founding the demoticist movement.
• It is notable that neither of the demotic Gospel translators of 1901 was a mainstream demoticist.
• These attitudes inevitably drove away people who might have been allies, and divided the demoticist forces.
• However, new political and cultural developments were soon to make Greece much more receptive to demoticist ideas.
• In the years following the 1878 Congress, for the first time, a'demoticist current'began to flow in the Greek political world.
• This work was significant not just for introducing an element of class warfare into the language question ( for the first time ) but also for prompting a long and notable debate in the demoticist magazine " " ( 1907-1909 ).
• In the aftermath of the violence the Greek Orthodox Church reacted by banning any translation of the Bible into any form of modern demotic Greek, and by forbidding the employment of demoticist teachers, not just in Greece but anywhere in the Ottoman Empire.
• Finally he had a political, demoticist motive : " Most of all, his translation of the Gospels aimed to foster national, moral and political regeneration after the 1897 defeat, both by enhancing the prestige of the colloquial modern language and by democratizing and modernizing national culture and opening it up to the broad masses of the population . " ( Mackridge 2009 p . 249)
• The supporters of " katharevousa " were on the defensive, but the demoticist movement was split between the'extreme'demoticists spearheaded by Psycharis and Pallis, and the'moderate'demoticists who were less doctrinaire, and much more tolerant of borrowing from " katharevousa " . ( It was these moderates who would finally win the language debate 80 years later .)
• Overall, Psycharis might be considered something of a double-edged weapon for the demoticist cause . " While " My Journey " was perhaps what was needed to awaken Greek intellectual leaders from their torpor, Psycharis'persistence in his uncompromising attitude towards the specific language variety he proposed, as well as to the language question in general, provoked an extreme reaction that delayed the resolution of the " katharevousa "-demotic conflict for several decades . " ( Mackridge 2009 p . 226)
• By contrast Georgios Hatzidakis, Professor of Linguistics at Athens University ( and one of the most authoritative linguists of modern Greece ), while no less opposed to demoticism, adopted a more considered approach . " Like other purists, Hatzidakis rejected the claim that there was a common spoken language, arguing that spoken Greek was fragmented into dialects and therefore unsuitable for written communication . " " His chief argument against demoticism, however, was a purely conservative one . . . He claimed that by his time, " katharevousa " had become the written medium of communication throughout the Greek-speaking world, whereas each demoticist wrote in a different language, each of which was characterized by anomalies.
• He naturally discussed the matter with Psycharis, who advised caution . " Psycharis was sensible enough to leave religion alone, and he had advised Pallis to do the same, arguing that it was provocative enough for the demoticists to be challenging the secular authority of " katharevousa " without challenging the Orthodox Church as well . " ( Mackridge 2009 p . 252 ) This cautious approach was typical of the demoticist movement of the time : " Also, although this was not stated explicitly, it was essentially a secular movement . " ( Mackridge 2009 p . 229 ) Up to this point, the demoticist movement and the Church had left each other alone; neither one had challenged the other.
