It's strange seeing greek alphabets used for writing, because I'm use it a lot in Engineering mathematics and I'm used to seeing it with numbers. Very interesting language though.

[@ariadnekonopidou6145]

That is not true. If you don't believe me I'm cypriot and you wrote you country's name wrong it is CyprUs not Cyprous

[@nikgeo8690]

Greek is very easy as far as prepositions are concerned..there is the preposition "στο"(equivalent to "at") which can replace all other prepositions which stand for "on", "in". "to" or "at"..also once you figure out how each letter is pronounced you can easily pronounce or read any word in greek...grammar is the hardest part of greek since in modern greek different rules are applied than in ancient greek...even most of the modern Greeks are not aware of many grammar rules or they mix up ancient greek's rules with modern greek's ones...

[@historylover792]

The reason many Greek letters are similar to Latin is because the Latin alphabet is the old Greek alphabet which the Latins learned from Euboean settlers at a time when the Latins could not read and write.

[@GreekPod101]

Hello History Lover, Yes, the Greek alphabet was the base of the Roman (Latin) alphabet. The Greek alphabet in general looks like an intimidating writing system, but with some study you will realise that many letters looks similar to the Roman alphabet. We hope you are enjoying these videos. You will find the complete series on GreekPod101.com Regards, Team GreekPod101.com

[@historylover792]

You don't understand. The Roman alphabet is not simply based on the Greek alphabet, the Roman alphabet _is_ the old Greek Alphabet. F is digamma, L is the old form of Λ etc. I have no need watching your videos since I can speak Greek quite fluently thank you.

[@GreekPod101]

Hi Moondogginjerzee, Correct! M letter is not the second letter, B is. But we are teaching the letters in a mixed order so we can form useful words from lesson 1. At the end of the series we review all letters again in their correct order. The whole series can be found on our website GreekPod101.com. Kind regards, Team GreekPod101.com

[@angieg.5243]

Yes, the second letter of our alphabet is B(vita), but for some weird reason, in this video they prefer to teach the letters in random order.

Cool! Great teacher. She is right. Writing while learning does wonders for memory and understanding. Flashcards help you master at lighting speed. I will prepare here on to have paper and pen ready and make flashcards. Systematically use your flashcards several times per day minimum for at least ten to fifteen minutes each time. You should go through your flashcards several times minimum at each sitting.

[@slitheringsoundcat7996]

But how is "ήξερα" pronounced sethah? How does ρ make the "th" sound? @3:20

[@scholar2013]

Is the lowercase alpha supposed to have what looks like a fish tail? I have two grammars, a literacy workbook, and a New Testament which I'm trying to learn to read. It seems as if every one of my sources does it differently. What's the right way?

[@ΕιρήνηΒογιατζή-υ9υ]

My native language is Greece and to be honest it doesn't actually matter which way you do it. It is correct both ways ; if it has a long tail or not.

[@WhatsMyHand]

Hi there thank you for your series of videos I will be making use of them. I was wondering about the Greek pronunciation of 'M'? is 'M' pronounced 'Mee' in modern Greek, and 'Moo' in Koine Greek. I only ask because there are other videos here on KZbin that teach the Koine Greek alphabet, that teach the pronouncement of 'M' as 'Moo'. I would appreciate any clarity you can offer.

[@WhatsMyHand]

Thanks Bernie I found your info very useful.

[@atouloupas]

Bernie O'Connor Wow! This is an outstanding explanation! I was about to answer the question, but I saw yours. And I guess from your name that you're not Greek (probably Irish), so congratulations! Unfortunately, many Greeks nowadays aren't aware that the pronunciation of Greek has changed since the ancient times and it's sad. In my school we read ancient Greek texts with mod. Greek accent.

[@Okdaataaeldin]

Good

[@hanzhaas2992]

In my physics and Chem classes, I've always wrote Αα differently, the lowercase version. It appears more like a loop, did modern Greek change this? Dans ma class de physiques et la classe de chimie, j'avais toujours écrive Αα différent, le lettre minuscule. Il semble plus comme une boucle, le grec moderne l'a changé?

Are there going to be lessons for the rest of the letters?

[@amnasdiary8046]

Great job

[@marios4all]

Well... her name is Στεφανία, and she has a greek accent when she speaks Greek (something not really easy to fake), so I would say she is. Nowadays yes, when you read ancient greek, you pronounce the greek letters with the same way. Ancient greeks though were using a different way (giving more duration for some letters and changing the sound in some others, but not drastically). So yes, today if you're reading a text in ancient greek, you'll pronounce it as modern greek.

[@in_crete_we_trust_]

The main problem is they use a lot of different fonts in Greece, so most letters looks different then you show here. I thing it is much better to show alphabet in few different fonts at once to recognize correctly all letters of greek alphabet. I know that it is easier to learn YOUR way, but THAT way people will find big problem while in Greece.

[@interstellar0001]

They don’t use different fonts. It’s no different than lower and upper case when you learn the alphabet.
