The name Macedonia is a Greek word originating from the adjective ''Makednos'', meaning big. Ancient Macedonians were of Greek origin and spoke Greek, in contrast to today's residents of FYROM who speak a slavic-bulgarian idiom (slavic majority) and albanian (albanian minority) and are by no means related to the ancient Macedonians.
