Greek course as "for beginner" course

[Abavagada]

I asked ego last month about formatting the Greek course in this forum into a "for Beginner" course. I took what he and Kyr posted, formatted it, and added in a few things.

I know that ego is very busy, so I am posting the link to it here, hoping that someone will help any mistakes I may have put it in it. I would also appreciate any comments, suggestions, etc. I don't know any Greek myself.

I'm not really busy, just forgot. It looks OK to me. Just this must be deleted because it's inaccurate:

Why two "s"? I am not sure… Middle East languages like Arabic and Hebrew have different forms for final and middle position for many letters too. And these alphabets derived from the same alphabet as Greek. So maybe the reason is this. But it could possibly be

As I found out later the two "s" were created in medieval times

OK. Thanks. You had said you were busy when I gave you the Tongan course. I didn't want to bother you too much.

I removed the paragraph.

Could you please check the exercises I made? I didn't make one for the last lesson yet, in case I totally screwed things up.

I was puzzled because I thought in a sentence like "The child reads the book." , which I got translated as "Το παιδί διαβάζει το βιβλίο.", that "book" would have to be but into the accusative, but it wasn't.

If the exercises are correct, I will make some for the last lesson.

Thanks!

but it is in accusative. In neuter names nominative and accusative are identical.

btw "lesson 4" is μάθημα τέταρτο and "lesson 5" is μάθημα πέμπτο.

"Η δασκάλα θέλει ο φοιτητής." is wrong, because both nouns are in nominative.

Ah.. thanks.

Corrected!

"Η δασκάλα θέλει ο φοιτητής." is wrong, because both nouns are in nominative.

Is "Η δασκάλα θέλει έναν σπουδαστή." correct?

[Kyr]

"Η δασκάλα θέλει έναν/ τον μαθητή" (for a primary school) or
"Η καθηγήτρια θέλει έναν / τον μαθητή (for a high school)
or "Η καθηγήτρια θέλει τον σπουδαστή / φοιτητή" (universities)

also "lesson 1" is μάθημα πρώτο.

[Abavagada]

"Η δασκάλα θέλει έναν/ τον μαθητή" (for a primary school) or
"Η καθηγήτρια θέλει έναν / τον μαθητή (for a high school)
or "Η καθηγήτρια θέλει τον σπουδαστή / φοιτητή" (universities)

I am going from the vocabulary in the course that ego posted, in which he put "Ο φοιτητής - the student" and "Η δασκάλα - the teacher (fem.)". He put " Η καθηγήτρια - the professor (fem.)" as well, so I guess I was going for the primary school teacher. But it looks like you are saying the levels are mismatched.

Should I just remove that sentence entirely?

Erik / Aba

[Kyr]

then you have to say τον μαθητή (the pupil), instead for φοιτητή/ σπουδαστή, since the latter refer to university students.

[ego]

I just gave random words.

[Abavagada]

I just gave random words.

I know ego. I simply removed the sentence.
I didn't want to get into the sordid details of what she wanted that student for.

I now added 2 exercises to the end of Lesson 5.. just simple conjugating.

If these are correct, and there are no other corrections, I can put it up on the new site.

Ego, did the Tongan one have anything I needed to correct?

Erik / Aba

[ego]

No, I didn't find any mistakes

Good job,Aba.
That Greek course is very useful for people like me.

Thank ego and Kyr. It's their material. I just formatted it.

Here is the course fully formatted in the style of the new site:

Thanks, ego and Kyr, for all the work you put into this, and for helping me with the corrections.

[lishaoxuan]

Wow, the new forum looks great. And there's finally a decent Greek course in unilang.
So, thanks to ego, kyr and aba who make this course a reality.

Could someonen do me the favor of notifying the "board administrator or webmaster" appropriately?

Thanks.

A board member and web master has been notified (me).

Those links work now. It was just a temporary problem.

Thank you,
