Ex. 1 from First Greek Writer (video)

This is not extemporaneous – I prepared first, and used answer key. But for this video, I do not have the key in front of me, and am working from the English, translating as I go.

Responses (video responses?) much appreciated. Even if you are only up to correcting me by reading (or copying) straight from the answer key, I would love that!

Comments on accents, pronunciation, etc., also appreciated.

I like the video very much because it is so comprehensible. The fact that you are slowly translating as you go from the English makes it much easier to understand than if you had just read the finished product. The use of visuals also helps in comprehension. I understood 100% of it after a few views. Very helpful to have such comprehensible input in Ancient Greek. I like your videos of the Anabasis as well.

Responses (video responses?) much appreciated.

I just posted a quick one:

And here is a reply to my own reply: http://youtu.be/M3TRrG_etRY

I understood 100% of what you said after watching both videos one or two times. thanks.

I’ve frankly never understood evaluating spoken Ancient Greek on any other basis THAN comprehensibility.
