Classical Greek: A New Grammar: Greek grammar taught and explained, with examples.
Like its Latin counterpart, a new grammar for both absolute beginners and students who already have a sound knowledge of the language but need to revise and enhance it. Also suitable for students of New Testament Greek. It can be used side by side with any textbook (Reading Greek, Athenaze, From Alpha to Omega, etc.) as a reference and support grammar. • ALL NECESSARY GRAMMAR: With complete explanations, removing the need for the student to consult a larger or more advanced grammar after the initial stages. • CLEAR EXPLANATIONS: Grammar explained as if hearing the teacher’s voice from the whiteboard, with additional class-style comments included where necessary. • CLEAR STRUCTURE: Division into different blocks for the nominal system, the verbal system, syntax of cases and syntax of clauses, and internal subdivisions in each of these blocks for a completely clear presentation. • BASIC VOCABULARY: List of the most useful terms that follow a given scheme after it has been presented: nouns, adjectives, verbs, etc. • USE OF ORIGINAL AUTHORS: Combination of made-up examples, which allows the adaptation of any sentence to an easy level when necessary, and sentences taken from classical authors for more advanced students. • APPENDICES: Covering the basic rules for accentuation, the characteristics of Homeric dialect and the dual, all of them with examples. • EXERCISES IN AN ADDITIONAL BOOK (in preparation): Allowing the grammar itself to be kept to a more reasonable size and price, ideal for those who want only the grammar for consultation. • WHOLE GRAMMATICAL INDEX: All the grammatical terms relating to accidence and syntax (functions, types of verbs, kinds of subordinates, different uses of participles, etc.), alphabetically presented at the end of the book. • INDEX OF GREEK GRAMMATICAL WORDS: Lists all Greek words used in presenting and explaining grammatical functions and usage. The price of the book has been left lower than expected for a book of this size (360 pages) as it is a book aimed mainly at students.
