introducing myself

Post by shaunthesheep »

Hi My name is Shaun.

I graduated from college with a major I didn't like many years ago, and since then doing a job I hate...

Now I am already 30 but still have the very dream of ancient world; I start teaching myself Greek & Latin, the common tongues of that age.

It is my privilege to join this forum and I wish on this forum we all find a path to ῾know thyself῾.

Welcome! I didn't start Greek until I was 34, and I wound up picking it up well enough to read Plato with my feet on the fender anyway.
“One might get one’s Greek from the very lips of Homer and Plato." "In which case they would certainly plough you for the Little-go. The German scholars have improved Greek so much.”
