Published/Copyright: September 25, 2009

The relationship between areal linguistics and typology can be illuminated and clarified by Macedonian dialectology, especially in the context of Balkan linguistics. This is especially important in analyses of the Balkan linguistic league, which, as an areal phenomenon, should be seen in historical perspective. On the one hand, Macedonian dialectology helps clarify the graded nature of the phenomenon itself, and on the other helps demonstrate that Macedonian is the most Balkanized of the Balkan languages.
