Fantastic
Aristotle was Macedonian and teacher of Alexander the Great. Below quote an excerpt from his work "for poiisi and drama".

"Ἐστὶν οὖν τραγωδία μίμησις πράξεως σπουδαίας καὶ τελείας, μέγεθος ἐχούσης, ἡδυσμένῳ λόγῳ, χωρὶς ἑκάστῳ τῶν εἰδὼν ἐν τοῖς μορίοις, δρώντων καὶ οὐ δι’ ἀπαγγελίας, δι’ ἐλέου καὶ φόβου περαίνουσα τὴν τῶν τοιούτων παθημάτων κάθαρσιν."

Then give the translation of text, the Greek.

"Είναι λοιπόν η τραγωδία μίμηση πράξης σημαντικής και ολοκληρωμένης, η οποία έχει κάποια διάρκεια, με λόγο ποιητικό, τα μέρη της οποίας διαφέρουν στη φόρμα τους, που παριστάνεται ενεργά και δεν απαγγέλλεται, η οποία προκαλώντας τη συμπάθεια και το φόβο του θεατή τον αποκαθάρει (λυτρώνει) από παρόμοια ψυχικά συναισθήματα".

t is almost 2,500 years! The language of the Macedonians, however, remained the same. As a new Greek can easily understand the great Macedonian this very easily from the original text !!!
