Description Abstract The two language varieties used in the southern part of Cyprus are Standard Modern Greek (SMG), the official language that is regarded as the prestigious form, and used in educational institutions, in the media, in political gatherings, governmental offices, and in the court of law; and Greek-Cypriot Dialect (GCD) which is used in everyday conversation, amongst family and friends, in folk literature and songs, and in political and cultural satire. This chapter discusses how the use of dialect can affect identity.
