@@petemalelis3037 Sorry for the necro, but that is so wrong! Ελληνικά is not feminine it is plural neuter, why is why it uses τα as its article. Therefore the adjective would mirror this and become κακα instead of κακό or κακή. κακό also has some connotations of evil, instead of just bad at something, so perhaps a better way to say it would be: Τα ελληνικα μου δεν ειναι καλα = My greek is not good.

For example, almost no one writes gamma (γ) like this, the loop is always bigger or final sigma (ς) is very rarely written like this, but instead like the Latin (s). Finally, in Greece if you pronounce the Greek letters like most people do (taoo, instead of taf or miew, instead of mee) we get pissed off! 😂

Fun fact: From my very own research (it's all started when I saw the cursive Korean M is shaped like the Hebrew M): many of Greek letters, particularly the uppercases, are similar to Korean and pronounced the same or similar. It does makes sense if you look at the origin, Phoenician I think if Phoenician alphabet was invented by imitating the mouth anatomy, because it looks pretty similar to Korean and the Korean alphabet was invented by imitating the mouth anatomy, the rest which has no comparison to the Korean can be fitted to the mouth anatomy. A great coincidence, they both didn't share the history at all and did the same thing This is my thinking about how the Greek vowels were invented: Α: rotated Ε: flipped Η: Diphthong of Phoenician A and I, simplified and it looks the same as the Korean A and I (ㅏ & ㅣ), then joined together to form the Η. The same both shape and pronunciation as ㅐ (archaic Greek, open E) Ι: simplified Yod Υ: no changes Ο: Ayin, it's a throat consonant, changed the pronunciation, and the assigned pronunciation is still located at the throat. The same shape as Korean Ng, a throat consonant Ω: Look carefully at the bottom, it does resembles the Korean O (ㅗ) Then the additional consonants: Ψ: Flip the Pi upside-down, then add the middle part of the rotated Sigma (looks the same as ㅅ) to the middle part of the Pi, then simplify them Φ: the shape of mouth with a stroke as an imaginary line of the air flow Χ: Put a cross that marks your throat that observed from the lip side, back of the tongue I'll post my research at Reddit, as this is probably a big discovery and nobody knows it. I had posted it, but it was too hard to understand and caused misunderstandings, and have some incorrect parts and some missing facts I discovered later after I posted it And sorry for the very long text, as this is a great thing to share and may have a great impact to the history

04:51 -- not the first time I hear this comment on the English name for the letters. They're mu and nu in English (instead of "mi" and "ni") because they were called μυ and νυ in Ancient Greek. That's also why they're called my and ny in German, and mu and nu in French. (Modern) Greek is the weird one when it comes to this, IMO. With iotacism since Medieval Greek, causing upsilon and iota to be pronounced the same way, they could have kept writing those letters' names as μυ and νυ instead of changing it to μι and νι, this would be more etymological. Great video, BTW.

I've tried making conlangs before and tried to write a new alphabet for them and I unknowingly came up with a lot of Greek letters. I never got far with the conlang but i really just made a hypothetical alphabet for fun. Tbh, I really like the Greek alphabet and compared to Cyrillic writing I find Greek to look better. Cyrillic just looks so weird because I know people read just like how I read the Latin alphabet in English but Cyrillic looks so different but the same.
@Chromozol
@Chromozol 5 жыл бұрын
Well, the Cyrillic script has a lot of forced and artficial elements, the lowercase is copypasta of the caps which in itself seems like a dull idea, and though I don't know much about current trends in handwriting (whether they use print), if you consider the cursive, it is a bit forced too, e.g. the connections before em and ya. But an interesting aspect is how type designers come up with fresh ideas to make the Cyrillic script better harmonized - check out Serbian and Bulgarian Cyrillic variants. And Greek, well, it's fun, the letters don't connect, you have more creative freedom... all is good and all is safe. But one could argue that no risk = no fun :D I usually get a conlang-looking alphabet when I try to reinvent Latin, haha :D

@Chromozol
@Chromozol 5 жыл бұрын
Modern Greek makes no difference between ο and ω sounds (nor between ι, η, and υ, for that matter) - it's just orthography. The strokes are word accents (tonos) and also help distinguish otherwise homographic words. There are actually two spelling systems, polytonic (with more kinds of accents) and more modern, simplified monotonic with just the tonos and dialytika (two dots to mark separation of two vowels that would otherwise create a diphthong).

The only thing I have a problem with is your pronunciation of some of the letters. Example is the common (μ-mé). It’s never pronounced (mu) as the Americans thought υ is pronounced as a ū sound. Also ( Ι) is pronounced (éota). That’s all I had a problem with lol. Love the video!! Maybe, you can show off other people’s greek (or any language) handwriting. Καλή σου μέρα

Let's not forget the ancient/medieval Greek characters used in the Greek numeral system: Ϛʹ ϛʹ stigma (combination of Σ and Τ) is the number 6 Ϟʹ ϟʹ koppa is the number 90 Ϡʹ ϡʹ sampi is the number 900 Otherwise the Greek numeral system uses the alphabet as numbers: α´ = 1, β´ = 2, γ´ = 3, ι´ = 10, κ = 20, χ´ = 600, ψ´ = 700, ω´ = 800 κτλ...

Haha, my math teacher from Romania in highschool, did wrote exactly the same alphas (with the upper tail longer as the lower one) as you mentioned to not write , on the other paper. I thought to be the only one mistaken with that :D

I think it's okay to give the alpha both curls, only one - upper or lower, or none - it's all within boundaries of your handwriting style. But the reason is not to differentiate, since there's no Latin letter that looks like an alpha without these curls. On the other hand, sometimes such exaggerated alpha indeed starts to look like a capital script "L". The other thing that pissed me off was using capital Pi to denote 3,1415..., I guess the teacher wanted to express her belief in Pi as a number by giving it full figure height.

Yeah , you're right. It's like a reflex of a fast hand-writing and beacuse of that results alpha in different styles. And about (PI), same here... That is maths...

I understand there is a (fairly obsolete) cursive style for Greek. It would be nice if someone were to develop a beautiful, Integral ( with respect to classic forms ) speedy, efficient, clear cursive form and technique for Greek; as we have in English.

I've been thinking about it for months! I have done some trials, most of them quite radical, but I wonder if it is worth pondering. After all, no Southern nations employ much cursive today; I observed the Italians use simplified letterforms as far from cursive as can be. The lowercase 'n' looks like a single arch, and the 'm' like the McDonald logo. The a is reversed e. Perhaps that's just the spirit of the South today? (Lead me out of my error if I'm just biased by some atypical fellow students from Italy! :D)

I think the pondering has led me to the conclusion: Developing a cursive for Greek would not 'catch-on'. I suppose cursive styles are going by the wayside in the interest of clarity ( ease of reading has triumphed over ease of writing). Cursive scripts tend to encourage unique personal expression. --not highly relevant in a fast paced era. Of course this underscores the relevance of your alternate forms which do allow for some fluidity and flourish of personal choice. ---All the best !

I'm guessing the space between these lines is supposed to be half the size of the one you used with the capital letters? I'm trying to get an idea of the letters proportions and how they are written in the lines, the book I'm learning from doesn't explain it although it has an exercise asking which letters are written on the line, with risers above the line and with descenders below the line. Also why did you mispronounce some of them like omycron, Gzy, tau... instead of omikron, ksi and taf?
@Chromozol
@Chromozol 5 жыл бұрын
The proportions I used somewhat follow what is found in type/fonts/print, so the ascenders and descenders are not as tall as the x-height, which is what might be found in children's book, idk. I used mostly standard English pronunciation of the letter names, which might be misleading to non-Anglophones.

@@Chromozol I see, I thought the pronunciation was ancient greek or some other version I don't know. One more question I forgot to ask before, what's the music in the end? Tried with shazam but no result. Thanks for the reply appreciate it.
