Bahasa Makedonia Kuno, juga disebut sebagai bahasa Helenik Makedonia,[a] adalah bahasa yang dituturkan oleh suku Makedonia Kuno pada milenium pertama SM dan tergolong ke dalam rumpun bahasa Indo-Eropa. Bahasa ini mulai mengalami kemunduran pada abad ke-4 SM karena dipinggirkan oleh penggunaan bahasa Yunani Attika oleh kaum aristokrat Makedonia. Dialek Attika kemudian menjadi landasan bahasa Yunani Koine yang berperan sebagai basantara pada periode Helenistik.[6]
Prasasti-prasasti yang telah ditemukan di Makedonia menunjukkan bahwa tidak ada bahasa tertulis lain di Makedonia Kuno selain bahasa Yunani Kuno,[7][8] dan penemuan epigrafi terkini dari wilayah Makedonia di Yunani, seperti lauh kutukan Pella,[9][10][11] menunjukkan bahwa bahasa Makedonia Kuno mungkin merupakan ragam bahasa Yunani Kuno Barat Laut.[12] Bukti-bukti linguistik lainnya menunjukkan bahwa walaupun bahasa Yunani Kuno adalah bahasa sastra, bahasa yang dituturkan oleh rakyat merupakan bahasa yang terpisah dan memiliki hubungan yang erat dengan bahasa Yunani Kuno.[13][14]
Penggolongan
Bukti tertulis bahasa Makedonia Kuno yang sangat sedikit, beberapa ahli bahasa masih berbeda dalam menggolongkan bahasa ini.[15][16] Beberapa penggolongan bahasa Makedonia kuno yang disarankan meliputi:[17][18]

Family: Ancient Greek is generally taken to be the only representative (though note the existence of different dialects) of the Greek or Hellenic branch of Indo-European. There is some dispute as to whether Ancient Macedonian (the native language of Philip and Alexander), if it has any special affinity to Greek at all, is a dialect within Greek (...) or a sibling language to all of the known Ancient Greek dialects. If the latter view is correct, then Macedonian and Greek would be the two subbranches of a group within Indo-European which could more properly be called Hellenic. Related Languages: As noted above, Ancient Macedonian might be the language most closely related to Greek, perhaps even a dialect of Greek. The slender evidence is open to different interpretations, so that no definitive answer is really possible; but most likely, Ancient Macedonian was not simply an Ancient Greek dialect on a par with Attic or Aeolic (...).
