I'm greek but moved to the UK at 3 and I'm currently learning better than broken greek

[@holleysdotcom]

I enjoy that you say the phrases at speed, as well as slowed down. It is nice to hear the break down of sounds, but it really helps to have a target speed for fluent speech as well.

[@Dimitris5353453]

I feel honored to have the chance to learn through your excellent channel a fascinating mother language. Yes, Greek should be in the school curricula of all decent schools. A true classic. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

[@user-ds9ez6mn2b]

I actually thank you I'm Greek and I actually don't know that people like Greek I just yeah you know I'm actually a Greek student so yes I just never thought I'm used to talking more English Korean and French

[@HK-pp9ig]

I would say schools should teach the ancient Greek language - I have done a short course of Ancient Greek in high school and Latin. I also did one year of Latin in University. The roots of many European languages are based in Greek and Latin. This helped me learn Italian, French, some Spanish and German. I can carry an informal conversation in Greek without difficulty, but when listening to Greeks speaking with one another it is very difficult to catch up with the speed they speak. Να είναι καλά.

[@Dimitris5353453]

The Greek language helped shape most European languages. It's a great feeling to know we all speak some Greek.

I wish I found this in beginning of learning Greek. Μου βοηθάει

Γεια σου Lydia! Thank you so much! I hope you'll allow me a small correction: "Με βοηθάει." You should use the accusative case of the personal pronoun with the verb "βοηθάω". 😊

Hello Jackie! This is indeed a much-discussed issue on my channel! I usually encourage my students to practice their pronunciation before anything else. It's not difficult at all and it solves some practical issues. But since this video is addressed to tourists too, I think you 're right! I 'll keep that in mind for my next phrase video, and I 'll try to write a post on my blog for this one too. Thanks for the feedback!

Dear Lina, thank you so much for taking the time to produce these powerful lessons. I moved near Nafphlio 2 years ago. Although I have learned more than I ever thought that I could, I'm restricted because I have yet to get my national Greek visa. So, I come back to my non Greek speaking country and don't use my adopted language. So I thank you for helping me study and hear and speak Greek. Phrases works best for me. Again, efcharistol para poly! (not using my Greek phone so I'm sure I misspelled this)

[@I_AM_TEMPLE]

Hi Lina. I am so glad to see you recognize my comment. 7 years here now. My Bronx accent when I speak Greek makes everyone laugh, and I then get the gentle correction. I'm still here with you.

[@amieange256]

I am so happy to have found your videos, my great grandparents came to USA from Greece & I have always wanted to learn Greek, but the family that actually knew & spoke it were all passed away before I was born. Simanteris is my family name. The way you teach is so easy I can start teaching along w/ myself, my youngest son & my granddaughter (who calls me Yaya, & my husband is Papa, short for Pappous). Such an interesting heritage to have & learn about, my oldest "yios" & I have been studying our heritage for a while, our goal is to eventually visit Greece. And my "yios" got a partial sleeve tattoo w/ "freedom or death" written in Greek letters, (as we learned is the meaning behind the number of stripes on the Greek flag), the words are tattooed inside what looks like old Greek armor, it's very cool!

Hi Lina, excellent video! Polí kaló! Greetings from Ispanía! We love your country and your people, The Greek sound system is very similar to the Spanish one, so I guess it's easy for us Spanish-speakers, regardless of the country (Spain or Latin America). And as you know, we have lots of words from Greek: teléfono, periferia, gastroenteritis, podólogo, Pedagogía... So this also helps. Even though some are false friends! : liturgia in Spanish is not opening times. I would love to visit Greece again! The little island of Elafónissos was paradise! Also Mystrás, Athens, Mikynes... Keep up the great work with your videos! Besos desde España!!
