if you mean the dialect around Thessalonika, it is probably still
spoken there, althought by few people. Some dialects in northern
Greece still have ronka (hand), narendja (to put in order), monzh
(man) etc. (compare to Bulgarian r&ka, naredja, m&zh). But there are
no cases, dual number, etc. You won't find a real 'OCS dialect' left,
of course.
