Ancient Greek and Modern Greek untill very recently 1981-82 in fact, as aforementioned, was using the "polytonic system" ... a very complex system indeed ...

Oh dear ! ... Ok let me pause to explain the "diphthongs" very quickly ... ok ?!

... and LOL LOL LOL LOL ... I just realised that some of you, weren't even born when Modern Greek "dropped" the "polytonic system" ...... hahahahah ... ...

A pleasure for me,Philadelphia mou! I WANT TO LEARN!!!

FIRST OF ALL ... the Greek language is pronounced EXACTLY as it is written !!!

It is NOT like English that you would get a word like "knight" that is pronounced "nait" ...

OK ?!?

This is RULE NUMBER ONE !!!

UNDERSTOOD,Philadelphia mou!

If it was pronounced as it's written, you would laugh yourself to death

Anyway, I'm dropping out of here for a while... See you later!!!

Guys, I'm having problems againg with this forum. After a certain hour in the night the pages hardly load. I don't know why...I can load any other page from the internet except this one

Therefore I am here but it takes me a looot to post a reply!!!
Still, I'm serious about my answers, Philadelphia!!! LOL! I'm waiting.....

Ok ... the Greek Alphabet (as you know the word derives from the "names" of the two first GREEK letters ALPHA and BETA) ...

The Alphabet is combined by letters that represent, as symbols, the different sounds the voice makes, in order to talk and pronounce the words ...

Any additional sounds that don't exist in the form of a "singular symbol", (in other words, in A letter) ... are "portrayed" by the combination of two or more ...

Remember, in Greek "you talk as you write and you write as you talk" ...

dya mou, I will open a new thread ... maybe the fact that there are SO many pages, makes it slow ... let's meet in "Greek Classroom 1" ... ok ?!

OK,Philadelphia !
