βοιωτιάζω — Anabasis Mather

βοιωτιάζω [Βοιώτιος], imitate the Boeotians; with τῇ φωνῇ, speak in Boeotian dialect. The Boeootian speech, which was an unrefined branch of the Aeolic dialect, seemed to the Athenians harsh and uncultivated. It had broad vowel sounds, and threw the accent of many words farther back than Attic; the smooth breathing was used, too, in many common words which in Attic had the rough breathing.
