Let's draw something
http://www.twiddla.com/1920018
Tell me what I should create or draw. In Greek. I will ask you questions if I don't understand you. In Greek.
Difficulty: I can't draw!
Why am I doing this? I have this crazy theory that communicating in order do or create something is a great language learning activity.

Re: Let's draw something
γράφε ταύτην τὴν εἰκόνα.
ἄνθρωπός τις. ὁ δὲ ἄνθρωπος ἔχει μόνα τρεῖς πόδας. ἐν δὲ τῇ χειρὶ ἔχει ποτήριον. καὶ πίπτει ἐκ ποτηρίου ὕδωρ.

ἐγράψα μὲν· οὐ δὲ "τρεῖς πόδας" συνίημι. οὐκ ἐστι κάτω τῶν σκελῶν οἱ πόδαι; γράψσεις "τρεῖς πόδας" ἤ λέξεις με.

οἴμοι, φίλτατε, κακῶς εἶπον. ἐθέλησα γὰρ λέγειν "μόνον ἕν πόδα ἔχει."
τὴν σὴν εἰκόνα φεφίληκα σφόδρα.

γράψον ταύτην τὴν εἰκόνα.
ἵππος τις τρέχων παρὰ τὴν ὁδὸν βλέπει κυνας καὶ λίθους. ὲπὶ λίθον τινὰ ἐγράφη πρόσωπον ὂ λυπείται.
Is there a way to draw stick figures and import them on to this Textkit thread in small pictures? I do think this is a good way to produce Greek and test comprehension while remaining in L2.

Re: Let's draw something
εὖγε! Your Greek is great, though, as to your skills as an artist, I would not give up your day job.
Now, tell us how we can draw those images and import them onto the thread. Then give me instructions in Greek and I will try one.

Re: Let's draw something
You can create an image on your computer and upload or paste it to imgur.com. There, use the direct link to the image, and in the your forum post add the following:
γράφε, ῶ Μάρκε φίλε, εἰκονα τοῦ τόπου τῆς Ἀραβίας πρὸς τὸν Εὐφράτην ποταμόν. ἐν τούτῳ δὲ τῷ τόπῳ ἔστι μὲν ἡ γῆ πεδίον ἅπαν ὁμαλὲς ὥσπερ θάλαττα, ἀψινθίου δὲ πλῆρες· δένδρον δ’ οὐδὲν ἔνεστιν, θηρία δὲ παντοῖα, πλεῖστοι ὄνοι ἄγριοι, πολλαὶ δὲ στρουθοὶ αἱ μεγάλαι· ἔνεισι δὲ καὶ ὠτίδες καὶ δορκάδες·

καλῶς τὴν εἰκόνα ἔγραψας, Μάρκε. ἀλλ’ οὐκ μὶα ἡ στρουθὸς μεγάλη. ἔγραψα δὲ πολλαὶ δὲ στρουθοὶ αἱ μεγάλαι. καὶ ποῦ ἐισιν ἀψινθίος καὶ πλεῖστοι ὄνοι ἄγριοι;
σύγε οἴδας, ἀλλ’ οὐκ δήπου οἱ ἄλλοι, τούτους τοὺς λόγους τοῦ Ξενοπώντος εἶναι.

"γράφετε" ἔφη!! οὐκ γράφε Ἰωήλ. ποῦ εἰσι οἱ ἄλλοι;
"ἐγεννήθη ἡ Ἀθήνη ἡ θεά"
ΖΕΥΣ: δίελέ μου τὴν κεφαλὴν ἐς δύο κατενεγκών.
ΗΦΑΙΣΤΟΥ: Πειρᾷ μου, εἰ μέμηνα;
