I had quite old-fashioned teachers, so they made us learn a lot of things by heart and I still can remember most paradigms of irregular verbs, as well as declention patterns. I even remember pieces of the Odyessea (in metric), but the largest part has already been forgotten....
If anything of this is useful, let me know.

In Homer's language one can find archaic elements as far as I know, and archaic elements in Homer means Mycenaean I guess. I have read smth about ablative in -φι and locative in -οι, but I guess not all declension patterns for these cases are known today, right?

The alphabet is the same, as i see at least , so what is it so special about Ancient Greek? I mean what kind of hard features has it got? Why is it harder than Modern Greek?
Thank you.
