Basics of Greek Accents: Eight Lessons with Exercises (Zondervan Language Basics Series)

A compact, student-friendly, and practical guide to Greek accents. 

In Basics of Greek Accents, John A. L. Lee provides eight simple lessons to teach students the basics of ancient Greek accentuation, covering basic rules, verbs, nouns, adjectives, important vocabulary, contractions, and enclitics.

This handy resource avoids theory and concentrates on taking the learner through the essentials in a natural sequence and reinforces learning by means of simple exercises and homework (with answers).

Ideal for:

• Classroom or independent learning
• Beginners who are just learning the language
• Intermediate students who have learned some Greek but are unsure of accents
• Students of classical or biblical Greek

No one can master Greek accents in eight lessons, but reasonable competence and confidence can be quickly acquired by working your way through Basics of Greek Accents.
