An excellent training about Language
Ancient Greek Phonetics
In this course you will learn how to make an Ancient Greek text in the Attic dialect come alive. You probably know the various lengths of the vowels in theory for example, but how do they really differ? Maybe you also know in theory the rhythm of a poem (you can make out the prosody etc), but how do the syllables add up in practice? Reading it aloud and with the right sound and length of the symbols makes all the difference. If you want to understand deeply the Ancient Greek texts, or to perform them, this is the right course for you, as it is the only available method.I will lead you through: the length and the sound of the vowelsthe sound of the diphthongsthe influence of the accentsthe aspiratethe sound of all the consonantsThere are a lot of examples and all the material is in downloadable pdf forms. You must already be familiar with the Greek alphabet, not so much with the language though: if you don’t know the words of the examples you can always find them in a dictionary. This is not a course for learning the Ancient Greek language, but only about the sound of it. The course includes: an introduction where you learn a few things about the history of the Attic dialect and about the sources of our informationthe sound and the length of the vowelsthe 3 forms of accentsthe aspiratethe sound of the diphthongsall the consonantsan epilogue
