Brushing Up English to Learn Greek
Peter S PerryPaperback 2014-12-17
Publisher Description
English may be the biggest obstacle to learning Greek! Greek textbooks use jargon such as noun, verb, morphology, and syntax, which sometimes sounds foreign. Many of us may remember them from grade school, but the memories may now be foggy from time and disuse. This book is written for hazy memories of English that need a brush up before learning Greek. Different than other aids to learning Greek, Brushing Up English to Learn Greek introduces verbal aspect to beginning students. English emphasizes the time of an action but Greek emphasizes the point of view--or aspect--of an action. This book helps students build a bridge of understanding between the different thought worlds of English and Greek.
