  1. I am a doctoral student in Biblical languages and one of the best things I did for Greek was download the Earworms - Rapid Greek volumes from Audible. It is modern, but it has catchy tunes and helps learn some vocabulary. It also helps with fluid pronunciation.

  2. thanks for the links. i always enjoyed singing or creating stories for greek and hebrew paradigms. i still remember every word of a story my greek teacher used to teach the different forms of eimi. sometimes when i'm reading my gnt i will say, "aye, it's me". which i guess could lead to problematic translations, but the plusses outweight the minuses.
