Changes

After a long development,<ref>For historical background, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greek_language_question. This reference contains the recommendation for the [https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Griechische_Sprachfrage article from the German ''Wikipedia''].</ref> Monotonic orthography became law in 1982.<ref>See Law 1228/1982 and Decree 297/1982. Both legatl texts were written with polytonic orthography, but they contain the provisions for the monotonic system.</ref> Greek was polytonic before and ancient Greek is polytonic because it was before 1982.<ref>Just in case you may wonder, this is independent from the popular (δημοτική) v. purified (καθαρέυουσα) dispute for Greek language. See Law 309/1976. The legal text was written in the purified Greek, but it ordered the popular Greek to be the official language.</ref> This means that polytonic Greek is not only ancient Greek, since the main part of modern Greek was polytonic.
