Greek bug...

I've long let my blog languish... argh!  Durn facebook!  But I hope to get back on the wagon once more!

I've recently been trekking back into attic Greek, as I only was able to take a few hours of classes from the wondrous Dr. West.  I figured I'd ball up my fascination and pare it into a workbook of sorts, as I have promised my children the joy of Greek this summer.

Of course this means I have a lot of learning for myself as well!  But that's part of the fun.  If anyone's interested I'd love your thoughts on my workbook.  Leave me a comment, and I'll send it over.

Wow -- cool!

Reminds me of Jonathon: a few years back, he started on a Lenape grammar book, but it fell on the wayside as teaching and such took up much of his time.

Thanks! I find most greek books lack explanation, or assume a high level knowledge of latin and grammar. Mostly I'm a bit afraid of teaching something wrong!

I suppose if I can work my own experience into the book, then perhaps it will be useful. There's some very well done and organized books already - but I hope to have something to add in the end.
