I would like to know if much headway has been made learning the IPA pronunciation and Classical Latin/Ancient Greek; that is, if anyone has done anything such as translating Greek and Latin words into their IPA equivalents?

Also, what are some other languages without lexical stress?

Thanks in advance.

So I'm interested in learning one (or both actually) of the ancient languages to be able to read philosophers work and some of the ancient plays, poems and novels. Also, as I'm interested in food history, to be able to read historical cookbooks and documents could be useful (most are probably in latin).

Ancient Greek is a language that I have an emotional attraction too. I think it sounds and looks beautiful. Latin on the ...

Greetings TK, I am trying over and over again to make a first post but in vain. Does this one work?
