\'Gates of Fire\' By Steven Pressfield
#81
No one has any real idea HOW the ancients actually spoke to one another - we do not even know how Greek was pronounced. There is some intimation in various dramas that have come down to us but we've no real idea how ordinary people, Spartans or otherwise, conversed in the street or in the act of fighting.
