    I suddenly decided to learn Greek for no reason at all. I hope i can succeed. Some of the sounds don't exist in Turkish so it'll be hard. Fortunately, i think i've found the best video that i could start with.

    Oh man. We had to memorize the Greek alphabet in grade school (I'm American) and I now really wish we hadn't. We learned just about every WRONG way to pronounce these letters. Now that I'm trying to learn Greek for real, the bad habits have been a frustrating problem. I've been so confused so far and really only because I learned things the very bad, very wrong way years ago. Thank you so much for this video, I now feel like I've got a great place to start unlearning those bad habits!

      They're not wrong, you probably learned the ancient pronunciation. Same for me, I live in Greece now, in Italy i made classic highschool and we learned ancient greek. Now it's quite hard to read them differently.

    Oh my God... This is so well explained, I'm definitely going to watch more! I just need to unlearn reading certain letters as I am used to, "v" as "n", "p" as "r", "x" as "h", etc. I am partly of Greek ancestry and sadly I have never learned, or had the opportunity to learn Greek. I did have to learn Latin, though... I have met Greek people who are extremely fluent in English, including in writing, and I often wondered how much more difficult it must be for them to master a language that has another alphabet. Now I feel encouraged.

    I’ve been thinking about learning a new language after English, but I was always procrastinating because I always thought I needed to learn popular languages like Spanish, German, French, etc. In reality, it wasn’t what I deeply wanted. Finally, I began learning Greek a week ago and it’s going immaculately. The reason for Greek is probably my admiration for Ancient Greek philosophy. What I do know is I’m having so much fun with Greek right now. Duolingo was a great starting point, but in time I found myself here as a second guide. Once I figure out the alphabet, I believe everything will get faster. καρότο και νερό

    I love this teacher! she reminds me of my Mαριακακι μου! I'm a Turkish Cypriot and I have a friend from Greece. She is very close to my big sister that I have whom I am blood-related. We met through a game and when she asked me where was I from, I thought she/he was going to bully me (had some of those) turns out she got bullied by Türks like I got bullied by Greeks :D anyway to this day, it has been more than 7 years, we have been in touch which I am super grateful for. So I know some curse words that she has taught me I also took a Greek 101 class at the uni. But I cannot speak yet I will learn now so I can say her baklava is Turkish in her native language and many more. I really hope to see her one day and do nnnnee 🤚🏻 to her :D She also taught me that. Apparently, it's very offensive similar to flipping someone off. I have no idea how did that become a thing in Greece. Jokes aside, I love her so much but I MUST annoy herrrrrrrr

      @@johml9645 thanks for your message and clarity. I was a bit harsh due to the misunderstanding and misuse of Greek here in Austria. I am Greek orthodox but I don't speak neither modern Greek nor New Testament Greek which is Church Greek. And I am now in this process if learning both Greeks. Of course there is a difference in vocabulary and syntax or grammar because any spoken language tends to be simpler than the formal one. One example of the identical pronunciation is a famous song called Αγνή Παρθένε. It is pronounced the same way any Greek person pronounces the modern Greek. You can listen to it and compare. Normally my contact and experience in my church is my source of information. Thanks again for your kindness :)
