	Tsakonian, Tzakonian or Tsakonic (Greek Τσακωνικά) is a highly divergent dialect of modern Greek or a separate language spoken in the Tsakonian region of the Peloponnese, Greece. It is named after its speakers, the 'Tsakonians', which is held to be an alteration of 'Laconians' - although Tsakonians themselves did not traditionally use this ethnonym. It is said to be from Exo-Lakones (meaning outer Lakonians) and morphed to Tsakones.
	Tsakonian is a variety of Greek. It is not mutually intelligible with Standard Greek, and is therefore sometimes considered a separate language, though historically it derives from the Greek Doric dialect.
