Clio Hadjigeorgiou – Κυπριώτικο Σκετς / [kipri’otiko skets] / Cypriot Sketch

Cypriot dialect was first broadcast in the media through radio in 1950. Via three  stories by Andreas Koukkides, Cypriot Sketch highlights some cultural and linguistic  elements of Cypriot dialect. The language barrier is no longer an obstacle but a communication  challenge. Compound words, proverbs and phrases are translated visually and  in a playful manner. Considerable linguistic borrowing happened as a glossary of loanwords  shows at the end of the book; the words are all taken from the transcribed stories  and are translated into the related languages of the dialect.
