@@ontherock Thank you! I did a quick glance over your playlist and didn't find the 1st and 2nd declension nouns. What are the odds you have a video like the one above for those? They are quite similar, so I'm applying the same memorization technique.
Wow! This a memory for me! It may have been 6 yrs ago (I think?) but I remember drilling this, going to sleep imagining it in my head, getting up in the morning, and double checking if I got the accents right in my head! (been too, too long since I've reviewed it. It's still mostly there! Thanks, Rob, you're a teacher with "sticky" methods that stay with us many years later!
@@LanAnh-ub3st It's so tiny on my screen it's hard to make out, but my guess is that it's a relative pronoun (feminine dative). The abbreviations are various textual witnesses.
Without question THIS is the nemesis of my Greek learning. This lesson is what I really need. One additional idea that I will implement is to add a letter to each category: N-nominative and S- subject. So my first row is NS. I honestly think I have FGD: Focused Grammatical Dyslexia, (yes I just made that up). I am really struggling with putting these similar rows together in my mind and, Nominative simply means nothing in my mind and memory. I don’t know why I can’t get it. Same with Dative, Accusative, and the G one. They are perpetually meaningless words to me. Because every Greek teacher spends 90% of the time referring to these meaningless words, i’m hoping the double letters will help me make the mental connection.
This is helpful! I'm taking Greek right now and we just covered the article. Thanks Rob.
Thanks for sharing this!!
I just started Greek in my graduate course work; this video helped tremendously. Thank you!!!
You're welcome! Glad you found it helpful. Happy learning!

Yeah I get it! You have to learn a language in order to learn a language
@@ontherock EXACTLY! Now I know why why other nations also speak English, they have to in order to learn their own!
Great video thank you. May I ask what makes you interested in learning Ancient Greek.
So I could read the New Testament and the Greek translations of the Old Testament
Any tips for memorizing Greek vocabulary words?
For me, it's just lots of repetition... reading and writing a lot sometimes works better than flashcards...
Do you have a video for 7.11, which is the full paradigm?
No, but this one touches on it
