Sturtevant, Pronunciation of Greek and Latin

Greek Learning Greek

I have the text above, second edition (1940). Can anyone recommend something more recent? I can’t imagine that there’s been no progress in the subject since 1940… :slight_smile:

Slender paperbacks printed on bad paper, but expensive.

Thanks, Hylander, for some reason these didn’t come up in the search that I ran (not that I tried very hard, mind you). I might be able to get my school to pay for the Latin one, but if I want the Greek, it’s up to me. Do you think they are worth having despite the bad paper?

Mine is well-thumbed. But it depends on what you want it for. The new Cambridge grammar delivers the pronunciation advice without any of the reasoning or discussion. (Including “Cockney Belt”, about which we had a thread recently.)

I would like the reasoning and discussion.
