The Prilep-Bitola dialect (Template:Lang-mk, Prilepsko-bitolski dijalekt) is a member of the central subgroup of the western group of dialects of the Macedonian language. This dialect is mainly spoken in the towns of Prilep and Bitola and in surrounding areas in the Republic of Macedonia, as well as by the Slavic-speaking minority population in and around Florina (Lerin) in neighbouring Greek Macedonia. The Prilep-Bitola dialect, along with other peripheral west-central dialects, provides much of the basis for modern Standard Macedonian.

Morphological characteristics

three definite articles pertaining to the position of the object (see Macedonian grammar)
the third-person personal pronouns: тој, таа, тоа, тие (he, she, it, they)
imperfective verbs are typically derived from perfective verbs by means of the suffix –ва (e.g. зборва and боледва)
use of the oblique form for proper names
