Paideia's Living Greek

Post by Markos »

The blog provides comprehensible input with accompanying audio.

While I can appreciate in theory the euphony and historical accuracy of the Restored Attic, I have to say that I find both readers' basic Erasmian easier to understand.

Conlon's digest of the Iliad
Joseph Conlin wrote:τὸ νεῖκος δοκεῖ μὲν τῆς κόρης ἕνεκα γενέσθαι, ἀλλὰ τιμή, ὡς δοκεῖ, ἡ ἀληθὴς τοῦ νείκους αἰτία ἐστιν.
seems to me to have the added benefit of being true.

The audio is indeed excellent and very clear but unfortunately the difficulty level is far to great for me still.
