Building a Greek Syntax Database (for Anki & other Data Applications)

Dear Textkitters,

A team of 5 amazing volunteers and I are building a syntax database for Ancient Greek Syntax (eventually this database will include a complete morphology, tagged vocabulary, style examples, etc for both Latin & Greek).

I write to see if there is any one out there who would be willing to contribute even 30 minutes a week of Greek data entry for this project? (EDIT: ALL COPY/PASTE at this point!). My hope is that this suit of resources will become one of the most complete academic and online resources for study of the classics.

This project is in honor of Dr. Walter Roberts, an astounding classicist and pedagogue, who passed away this year unexpectedly. Walter was a devoted, generous, inimitable teacher and friend. I hope to have some of these resources completed before the commemoration of his life in the summer of 2022.

Thank you for your time & consideration,
Nicholas

Hi Nicholas,

I am not very confident with my Greek typing as I am quite new to Greek and learning accent marks etc. If however down the track you need any help with building a Latin database please feel free to PM me or contact me here as I would be very happy to help with that.

Cheers.

Dear Villanelle,

Thank you for your interest!! The Greek data entry is all copy paste at this point, but I understand why you might be hesitant. If you’re interested in working on the Latin database, I would be happy to chat more about starting that database in parallel. I have been building both the Greek & Latin databases by myself for some time, and while the priority is to finish the Greek database, it is best to snap up willing collaborators when the moment presents itself :smiley:

Dear Nicholas,

I would be honoured to contribute to this great project, especially on the Greek side at this moment.

Vasile,

I will be in touch with you today to schedule a zoom call! :slight_smile:

Mr.Nicholas
Hi, if it’s just copy and paste, I’m interested and willing to participate in this project, because I can learn a lot of knowledge in this process. If you can, please send me the text of the operation process, because I’m Chinese and my oral English expression is very poor at present
