Homework tip

It's better to do some of the homework from all chapters than all of the homework for some chapters.

This way you can get practice for each concept rather than leave entire sections undone.

Of course, all of the homework from all chapters is ideal if you have the time.

Remembering the Cases

Acronym: Ngalidav (I pronounce the final "v" as if it were a "nu").

Nominative
Genitive
Ablative
Locative
Intrumental
Dative
Accusative
Vocative

Simplistic, but the acronym helps me remember the order.

Welcome to Greek-Aids

As a beginning student of Greek (just two weeks into it at the start of this blog!), I though it would be extremely helpful to have a collaborative website where people could get helpful memory devices and tricks to aid the learning and retaining of Greek words and concepts.

This is not a forum to teach Greek grammar, only to help remember what one is trying to learn from a course. If you have memory devices, acronyms, or anything that helped you learn and remember a term, word, or concept, you are welcome to contribute.

Here is how to contribute: Send an email to truthstands dot greekaids at blogger dot com. Use the subject line as the title for the post, and the body for whatever you want to post (text, tables, html). Your email will be posted immediately on the blog, and I received an email for moderation purposes.
