【Course Objectives】

This course introduces students to elementary Greek grammar. By the end of the academic year, students will be reading some passages from the New Testament or the Plato’s dialogues etc. with the help of a dictionary and a grammar book.

【Course Contents】

[I. Overview]

The three main contents of the spring semester classes are as follows:

A. To learn the 24 letters of the Greek alphabet.
B. To learn the declension tables of nouns.
C. To learn the concept of the case of nouns and to translate short, simple sentences.

The Greek alphabet is very similar to the Roman alphabet, so anyone can learn if they study it carefully for a week or two (A). There are many declension tables of nouns to memorise, so it takes about a semester to learn them (B). It takes time to acquire the concept of case, so this is acquired through repeated translation exercises (C).

[II. Classroom procedures]

The classes will be conducted as follows. In the first class, only a, d, e and f will be given.

a. [Before class] Download the teaching materials in advance if necessary.
b. [Start of class] Quiz.
c. Answers to exercises (students’ presentations in turn).
d. Hand out materials and study new grammar points.
e. Instructions for the next quiz and exercises.
f. [After class] Memorise the material for the quiz and complete the exercises.

[III. Memorisation of the Greek alphabet (by the third class)]

From the third class, it is assumed that students are able to read and write the Greek alphabet.

The following two checks will be made to ensure that students are able to read and write the Greek alphabet:

i. Self-checking with quizzes in the second and third classes.
ii. A short submission assignment after the first and second sessions (to be corrected and returned to each student).

Students who are unable to attend the first and second classes due to unavoidable circumstances can submit their assignments later.
