Mastering the sight and sounds of the alphabet lays the cornerstone for learning the sight and sounds of Greek words in all subsequent lessons. Your first step toward learning NTGreek is to memorize the Greek alphabetical characters and the order in which they occur in the alphabet. You are sowing the seed for future failure if you do not thoroughly learn them! The Greek alphabet has twenty-four letters. Each letter is represented by both a small and capital letter. The difference between the small and capital letters is no different from the small and capital letters in English. Seven alphabetical letters are vowels, and the remaining seventeen letters are consonants. It is vital to learn the names of these letters, correctly to write both the small and capital letters, and the proper pronunciation of each alphabetical character. This will not be as difficult as expected, since many English and Greek alphabetical characters are very similar. 1.01 The types of Greek letters in the alphabet. Two major types of speech sounds constitute the Greek alphabet as with the English alphabet. The open sounds with “free” breath are the vowel letters, and the closed sounds with restricted breath are the consonant letters.

When one says ldquoahrdquo for the doctor an open sound is made with free passage of breath The sound may be made as long as there is breath This sound is a vowel as are all the other open and freely breathed sounds in speech The various vowel sounds are enunciated by modification of the shape of the oral chamber and by movements of the tongue and lips There are seven vowel letters in the Greek alphabet The open quality of vowels distinguishes them from another type of letter the consonant Simply stated a consonant is any single letter that is not a vowel The consonant letters are pronounced with the breath totally or partly blocked This hindering of sound is done by the tongue teeth or lips There are seventeen consonant letters in the Greek alphabet 102 The Greek alphabetical letters and sounds A sound sufficiently distinct from other sounds as to differentiate meaning is a phoneme Each phoneme is represented in writing by a unique alphabetical letter For example the words

ldquopatrdquo and ldquobatrdquo have different meanings because the two consonant letters ldquoprdquo and ldquobrdquo are separate phonemes Although the forming of these two letters by the lips is identical the vocal cords are used with ldquobrdquo but not with ldquoprdquo

A wordrsquos phonetic pronunciation is produced by the quick succession of its individual letter phonemes In ldquobatrdquo the combined sound of each alphabetical letter (ldquobrdquo + ldquoardquo + ldquotrdquo) yields the wordrsquos total phonetic sound However only context determines the meaning of the word (ie ldquobatrdquo as a stout wooden stick or club ldquobatrdquo as a nocturnal flying mammal or ldquobatrdquo as to move the eyelids quickly) This lesson introduces each Greek alphabetical characterrsquos phoneme as well as the pronunciation of each Greek alphabetical letter 11 The Greek Alphabet The approach in learning the Greek alphabet is first by seeing the individual capital and small letter then correctly pronouncing and correctly writing them in their alphabetical order Memorizing them in this order from the beginning will prove helpful later when using a Greek-English lexicon A lexicon is more than a dictionary for it also cites actual usages of a word within a document(s)

The term ldquophonemerdquo is pronounced as fō nēm The twenty-four Greek alphabetical characters represent twenty-four different phonemes

The suggested procedure for learning the alphabet is straightforward Use the provided practice Greek alphabet practice pages on pages 1-19 through 1-24 Proper penmanship while learning to write the Greek letters is an essential step in learning Greek Possible confusion between the letters is avoided from the start if bad habits are not learned Next use the animated tutorial link below each Greek alphabetical letter to learn how properly to form the character and how its phoneme and alphabetical character is pronounced On your practice sheets practice writing both the capital and small Greek letters while listening to the letterrsquos pronunciation As you listen to how an alphabetical character is pronounced remember that the pronunciation of a letterrsquos phoneme is learned by proper pronunciation of its alphabetical name For example the second letter in the Greek alphabet is and is pronounced as the first letter in its alphabetical name (bēta) Knowing how to pronounce the characterrsquos alphabetical name therefore is to know how to

pronounce the Greek letterrsquos phoneme This is also true for all the remaining letters in the alphabet A Greek letterrsquos phoneme has the same pronunciation as does its initial sound of its alphabetical letterrsquos name As stated before the twenty-four letters of the

Greek alphabet are divided into two types seven are vowels and the remaining seventeen are consonants Beginning on page 1-5 the order does not reflect these separate categories but rather the Greek lettersrsquo proper alphabetical order Moreover each of the twenty-four Greek letters is represented by two forms The first letter illustrates the capital letter (or upper case) and then its corresponding small letter (or lower case) follows The capital letters should be studied along with their matching small letters The letters should be pronounced aloud several times while practicing writing them The human eye must not carry the entire burden of learning and memorizing the alphabetical order of the Greek alphabet

The arrow accompanying each case letter indicates the starting point and direction of flow when forming a Greek character Greek is read from left to right like English Thereforemdashif at all possiblemdasha Greek letter should be written so that the final stroke ends to the furthest right where the next letterrsquos stroke begins The Greek names for the lower case letters are spelled on the following pages with accompanying accents and breathing marks Whereas these are for future

A Greek letterrsquos phoneme has the same pronunciation as does the opening sound of its alphabetical letterrsquos name

111 Memorizing the Greek alphabet Similarities exist between the Greek and English alphabetical letters These similarities exist in form (orthography) and sound (phoneme) The Greek alphabetical order parallels the English for a while then differs and then begins to parallel again It is recommended that the Greek alphabet be memorized in five groups of letters each beginning with a familiar looking English corresponding vowel (alpha) (epsīlon) (iōta) (omīkron) and (upsīlon) These suggested groupings follow

Lesson One The Greek Alphabet Sight and Sounds of the Greek Letters (Module A) Study Aid Level One Similarities and Differences

English Alphabet NTGreek Alphabet

1 English is read and written from left to right

1 NTGreek is read and written from left to right

2 In the English alphabet there are twenty-six letters Five letters are vowels (and sometimes ldquowrdquo and ldquoyrdquo) and twenty-one letters are consonants

2 The NTGreek alphabet has twenty-four letters Seven letters are vowels and seventeen letters are consonants

3 The English alphabet has both capital and small letters Almost all of the capitals look like their ldquoprintedrdquo small letters

3 The NTGreek alphabet has both capital and small letters Many Greek capitals do not look like their ldquoprintedrdquo small letters

4 English capitals are used for proper names and new sentences

4 Greek capitals are used for proper names first letter of a new paragraph and to mark the beginning of a direct quote

5 English letters are not written differently when they appear at the end of a word

5 One letter ( ) in NTGreek has a different form when it appears at the end of a word

6 It is impossible to learn to read English without knowing the meaning of words because letters and letter combinations can be pronounced in so many different ways For example the ldquocrdquo in ldquocatrdquo ldquocuberdquo and ldquocirclerdquo

6 NTGreek consonants and vowels are nearly always pronounced the same Therefore it is possible to learn to read NTGreek without knowing the meaning of words

7 English is pronounced differently in various places such as Canada Australia and the United States

7 NTGreek also has various pronunciations You will learn the phonetic pronunciation that is used in many colleges universities and seminaries

A Look Ahead Understanding some of the similarities and differences between the English and Greek alphabets is just the beginning of learning New Testament Greek This NTGreek course will equip anyone to read and understand New Testament Greek (NTGreek) Over one hundred lessons are planned to take you from your first steps in New Testament Greek to a thorough knowledge of the language that will rival any Bible college university or seminary study Lesson One introduced the sight and sounds of the twenty-four Greek alphabetical characters These same characters are further developed in Lesson Two by examining how they sound together in simple vowelmdashconsonant and consonant-vowel combinations so that the student will have confidence they are pronouncing Greek words properly In addition a phonetic pronunciation system is integrated in these lessons by means of MP3 audio files as well as later lessons Several special features to look forward to in all Greek lessons are

1 A large Greek point size is purposefully employed to aid the beginning student Greek words contained within paragraphs are 14 point and the font point size for illustrations is 16 point

2 Many MP3 audio files accompany every lesson If you wish to hear the audio portion of the lesson simply click on the link

3 A study guide is included at the end of every lesson that tests the student over the material studied in the lesson to advance more rapidly the learning curve

4 Many study aids are associated with each lesson These study aids give the student further opportunities to learn more by the added instructional materials exercises and quizzes Answer keys are provided when applicable The study aids are divided into three levels The different levels represent an escalating level of difficulty It is recommended to begin with the least difficult exercises in Level One and proceed through Level Three to receive the maximum benefit The study aid pages are paginated sequentially The abbreviation SA represents Study Aids followed by the lesson number and then the sequential study aid pagination

When one says ldquoahrdquo for the doctor an open sound is made with free passage of breath The sound may be made as long as there is breath This sound is a vowel as are all the other open and freely breathed sounds in speech The various vowel sounds are enunciated by modification of the shape of the oral chamber and by movements of the tongue and lips There are seven vowel letters in the Greek alphabet The open quality of vowels distinguishes them from another type of letter the consonant Simply stated a consonant is any single letter that is not a vowel The consonant letters are pronounced with the breath totally or partly blocked This hindering of sound is done by the tongue teeth or lips There are seventeen consonant letters in the Greek alphabet 102 The Greek alphabetical letters and sounds A sound sufficiently distinct from other sounds as to differentiate meaning is a phoneme Each phoneme is represented in writing by a unique alphabetical letter For example the words

ldquopatrdquo and ldquobatrdquo have different meanings because the two consonant letters ldquoprdquo and ldquobrdquo are separate phonemes Although the forming of these two letters by the lips is identical the vocal cords are used with ldquobrdquo but not with ldquoprdquo

A wordrsquos phonetic pronunciation is produced by the quick succession of its individual letter phonemes In ldquobatrdquo the combined sound of each alphabetical letter (ldquobrdquo + ldquoardquo + ldquotrdquo) yields the wordrsquos total phonetic sound However only context determines the meaning of the word (ie ldquobatrdquo as a stout wooden stick or club ldquobatrdquo as a nocturnal flying mammal or ldquobatrdquo as to move the eyelids quickly) This lesson introduces each Greek alphabetical characterrsquos phoneme as well as the pronunciation of each Greek alphabetical letter 11 The Greek Alphabet The approach in learning the Greek alphabet is first by seeing the individual capital and small letter then correctly pronouncing and correctly writing them in their alphabetical order Memorizing them in this order from the beginning will prove helpful later when using a Greek-English lexicon A lexicon is more than a dictionary for it also cites actual usages of a word within a document(s)

The term ldquophonemerdquo is pronounced as fō nēm The twenty-four Greek alphabetical characters represent twenty-four different phonemes

The suggested procedure for learning the alphabet is straightforward Use the provided practice Greek alphabet practice pages on pages 1-19 through 1-24 Proper penmanship while learning to write the Greek letters is an essential step in learning Greek Possible confusion between the letters is avoided from the start if bad habits are not learned Next use the animated tutorial link below each Greek alphabetical letter to learn how properly to form the character and how its phoneme and alphabetical character is pronounced On your practice sheets practice writing both the capital and small Greek letters while listening to the letterrsquos pronunciation As you listen to how an alphabetical character is pronounced remember that the pronunciation of a letterrsquos phoneme is learned by proper pronunciation of its alphabetical name For example the second letter in the Greek alphabet is and is pronounced as the first letter in its alphabetical name (bēta) Knowing how to pronounce the characterrsquos alphabetical name therefore is to know how to

pronounce the Greek letterrsquos phoneme This is also true for all the remaining letters in the alphabet A Greek letterrsquos phoneme has the same pronunciation as does its initial sound of its alphabetical letterrsquos name As stated before the twenty-four letters of the

Greek alphabet are divided into two types seven are vowels and the remaining seventeen are consonants Beginning on page 1-5 the order does not reflect these separate categories but rather the Greek lettersrsquo proper alphabetical order Moreover each of the twenty-four Greek letters is represented by two forms The first letter illustrates the capital letter (or upper case) and then its corresponding small letter (or lower case) follows The capital letters should be studied along with their matching small letters The letters should be pronounced aloud several times while practicing writing them The human eye must not carry the entire burden of learning and memorizing the alphabetical order of the Greek alphabet

The arrow accompanying each case letter indicates the starting point and direction of flow when forming a Greek character Greek is read from left to right like English Thereforemdashif at all possiblemdasha Greek letter should be written so that the final stroke ends to the furthest right where the next letterrsquos stroke begins The Greek names for the lower case letters are spelled on the following pages with accompanying accents and breathing marks Whereas these are for future

A Greek letterrsquos phoneme has the same pronunciation as does the opening sound of its alphabetical letterrsquos name

111 Memorizing the Greek alphabet Similarities exist between the Greek and English alphabetical letters These similarities exist in form (orthography) and sound (phoneme) The Greek alphabetical order parallels the English for a while then differs and then begins to parallel again It is recommended that the Greek alphabet be memorized in five groups of letters each beginning with a familiar looking English corresponding vowel (alpha) (epsīlon) (iōta) (omīkron) and (upsīlon) These suggested groupings follow

The chart in the next section summarizes and highlights what has been presented thus far for all the Greek letters which will be helpful as a review The alphabetical letter names of the three variable vowels alpha iōta and upsīlon should be pronounced long when reciting the alphabet 14 The Greek Alphabet Charted The capital and small letters appear in the first column with their Greek and English spellings in the second and third columns respectively Breathing marks and accents have been included where appropriate (these will be introduced in Lesson Five) The fourth column gives an English approximate pronunciation of the Greek letter and its phonetic value in the fifth column The sixth column illustrates the English equivalent (transliteration) to the Greek letter The word alphabet ( from + ) is derived from the first two letters of the twenty-four Greek letters commonly used by the Greeks The consonants employed in the Greek alphabet are for the most part adapted from the Phoenician alphabet Originally the Greek alphabet had several other letters but they dropped out of use before the New Testament era However their continued influence is still felt especially in Greek verbs In addition the Greeks added five other letters that were not part of the Phoenician alphabet ( and which are the last five letters of the Greek alphabet) The Greek alphabetical letters did double duty serving also as numbers For example First John was written as ( = first letter in the alphabet) Second John was ( = second letter in the alphabet) and Third John was ( = third letter in the alphabet)

Lesson One The Greek Alphabet Sight and Sounds of the Greek Letters (Module A) Study Aid Level One Similarities and Differences

English Alphabet NTGreek Alphabet

1 English is read and written from left to right

1 NTGreek is read and written from left to right

2 In the English alphabet there are twenty-six letters Five letters are vowels (and sometimes ldquowrdquo and ldquoyrdquo) and twenty-one letters are consonants

2 The NTGreek alphabet has twenty-four letters Seven letters are vowels and seventeen letters are consonants

3 The English alphabet has both capital and small letters Almost all of the capitals look like their ldquoprintedrdquo small letters

3 The NTGreek alphabet has both capital and small letters Many Greek capitals do not look like their ldquoprintedrdquo small letters

4 English capitals are used for proper names and new sentences

4 Greek capitals are used for proper names first letter of a new paragraph and to mark the beginning of a direct quote

5 English letters are not written differently when they appear at the end of a word

5 One letter ( ) in NTGreek has a different form when it appears at the end of a word

6 It is impossible to learn to read English without knowing the meaning of words because letters and letter combinations can be pronounced in so many different ways For example the ldquocrdquo in ldquocatrdquo ldquocuberdquo and ldquocirclerdquo

6 NTGreek consonants and vowels are nearly always pronounced the same Therefore it is possible to learn to read NTGreek without knowing the meaning of words

7 English is pronounced differently in various places such as Canada Australia and the United States

7 NTGreek also has various pronunciations You will learn the phonetic pronunciation that is used in many colleges universities and seminaries

A Look Ahead Understanding some of the similarities and differences between the English and Greek alphabets is just the beginning of learning New Testament Greek This NTGreek course will equip anyone to read and understand New Testament Greek (NTGreek) Over one hundred lessons are planned to take you from your first steps in New Testament Greek to a thorough knowledge of the language that will rival any Bible college university or seminary study Lesson One introduced the sight and sounds of the twenty-four Greek alphabetical characters These same characters are further developed in Lesson Two by examining how they sound together in simple vowelmdashconsonant and consonant-vowel combinations so that the student will have confidence they are pronouncing Greek words properly In addition a phonetic pronunciation system is integrated in these lessons by means of MP3 audio files as well as later lessons Several special features to look forward to in all Greek lessons are

1 A large Greek point size is purposefully employed to aid the beginning student Greek words contained within paragraphs are 14 point and the font point size for illustrations is 16 point

2 Many MP3 audio files accompany every lesson If you wish to hear the audio portion of the lesson simply click on the link

3 A study guide is included at the end of every lesson that tests the student over the material studied in the lesson to advance more rapidly the learning curve

4 Many study aids are associated with each lesson These study aids give the student further opportunities to learn more by the added instructional materials exercises and quizzes Answer keys are provided when applicable The study aids are divided into three levels The different levels represent an escalating level of difficulty It is recommended to begin with the least difficult exercises in Level One and proceed through Level Three to receive the maximum benefit The study aid pages are paginated sequentially The abbreviation SA represents Study Aids followed by the lesson number and then the sequential study aid pagination

The suggested procedure for learning the alphabet is straightforward Use the provided practice Greek alphabet practice pages on pages 1-19 through 1-24 Proper penmanship while learning to write the Greek letters is an essential step in learning Greek Possible confusion between the letters is avoided from the start if bad habits are not learned Next use the animated tutorial link below each Greek alphabetical letter to learn how properly to form the character and how its phoneme and alphabetical character is pronounced On your practice sheets practice writing both the capital and small Greek letters while listening to the letterrsquos pronunciation As you listen to how an alphabetical character is pronounced remember that the pronunciation of a letterrsquos phoneme is learned by proper pronunciation of its alphabetical name For example the second letter in the Greek alphabet is and is pronounced as the first letter in its alphabetical name (bēta) Knowing how to pronounce the characterrsquos alphabetical name therefore is to know how to

pronounce the Greek letterrsquos phoneme This is also true for all the remaining letters in the alphabet A Greek letterrsquos phoneme has the same pronunciation as does its initial sound of its alphabetical letterrsquos name As stated before the twenty-four letters of the

Greek alphabet are divided into two types seven are vowels and the remaining seventeen are consonants Beginning on page 1-5 the order does not reflect these separate categories but rather the Greek lettersrsquo proper alphabetical order Moreover each of the twenty-four Greek letters is represented by two forms The first letter illustrates the capital letter (or upper case) and then its corresponding small letter (or lower case) follows The capital letters should be studied along with their matching small letters The letters should be pronounced aloud several times while practicing writing them The human eye must not carry the entire burden of learning and memorizing the alphabetical order of the Greek alphabet

The arrow accompanying each case letter indicates the starting point and direction of flow when forming a Greek character Greek is read from left to right like English Thereforemdashif at all possiblemdasha Greek letter should be written so that the final stroke ends to the furthest right where the next letterrsquos stroke begins The Greek names for the lower case letters are spelled on the following pages with accompanying accents and breathing marks Whereas these are for future

A Greek letterrsquos phoneme has the same pronunciation as does the opening sound of its alphabetical letterrsquos name

5 English letters are not written differently when they appear at the end of a word

5 One letter ( ) in NTGreek has a different form when it appears at the end of a word

6 It is impossible to learn to read English without knowing the meaning of words because letters and letter combinations can be pronounced in so many different ways For example the ldquocrdquo in ldquocatrdquo ldquocuberdquo and ldquocirclerdquo

6 NTGreek consonants and vowels are nearly always pronounced the same Therefore it is possible to learn to read NTGreek without knowing the meaning of words

7 English is pronounced differently in various places such as Canada Australia and the United States

7 NTGreek also has various pronunciations You will learn the phonetic pronunciation that is used in many colleges universities and seminaries

111 Memorizing the Greek alphabet Similarities exist between the Greek and English alphabetical letters These similarities exist in form (orthography) and sound (phoneme) The Greek alphabetical order parallels the English for a while then differs and then begins to parallel again It is recommended that the Greek alphabet be memorized in five groups of letters each beginning with a familiar looking English corresponding vowel (alpha) (epsīlon) (iōta) (omīkron) and (upsīlon) These suggested groupings follow

12 Greek Small Letters 121 Eleven of the Greek lower case letters do not extend below the line and are approximately as wide as they are high The height of these lower case letters are one-half of the height of their corresponding upper case letters

English Alphabet NTGreek Alphabet

1 English is read and written from left to right

1 NTGreek is read and written from left to right

2 In the English alphabet there are twenty-six letters Five letters are vowels (and sometimes ldquowrdquo and ldquoyrdquo) and twenty-one letters are consonants

2 The NTGreek alphabet has twenty-four letters Seven letters are vowels and seventeen letters are consonants

3 The English alphabet has both capital and small letters Almost all of the capitals look like their ldquoprintedrdquo small letters

3 The NTGreek alphabet has both capital and small letters Many Greek capitals do not look like their ldquoprintedrdquo small letters

4 English capitals are used for proper names and new sentences

4 Greek capitals are used for proper names first letter of a new paragraph and to mark the beginning of a direct quote

5 English letters are not written differently when they appear at the end of a word

5 One letter ( ) in NTGreek has a different form when it appears at the end of a word

6 It is impossible to learn to read English without knowing the meaning of words because letters and letter combinations can be pronounced in so many different ways For example the ldquocrdquo in ldquocatrdquo ldquocuberdquo and ldquocirclerdquo

6 NTGreek consonants and vowels are nearly always pronounced the same Therefore it is possible to learn to read NTGreek without knowing the meaning of words

7 English is pronounced differently in various places such as Canada Australia and the United States

7 NTGreek also has various pronunciations You will learn the phonetic pronunciation that is used in many colleges universities and seminaries

Lesson One The Greek Alphabet Sight and Sounds of the Greek Letters (Module A) Study Aid Level One Similarities and Differences

English Alphabet NTGreek Alphabet

1 English is read and written from left to right

1 NTGreek is read and written from left to right

2 In the English alphabet there are twenty-six letters Five letters are vowels (and sometimes ldquowrdquo and ldquoyrdquo) and twenty-one letters are consonants

2 The NTGreek alphabet has twenty-four letters Seven letters are vowels and seventeen letters are consonants

3 The English alphabet has both capital and small letters Almost all of the capitals look like their ldquoprintedrdquo small letters

3 The NTGreek alphabet has both capital and small letters Many Greek capitals do not look like their ldquoprintedrdquo small letters

4 English capitals are used for proper names and new sentences

4 Greek capitals are used for proper names first letter of a new paragraph and to mark the beginning of a direct quote

5 English letters are not written differently when they appear at the end of a word

5 One letter ( ) in NTGreek has a different form when it appears at the end of a word

6 It is impossible to learn to read English without knowing the meaning of words because letters and letter combinations can be pronounced in so many different ways For example the ldquocrdquo in ldquocatrdquo ldquocuberdquo and ldquocirclerdquo

6 NTGreek consonants and vowels are nearly always pronounced the same Therefore it is possible to learn to read NTGreek without knowing the meaning of words

7 English is pronounced differently in various places such as Canada Australia and the United States

7 NTGreek also has various pronunciations You will learn the phonetic pronunciation that is used in many colleges universities and seminaries

12 Greek Small Letters 121 Eleven of the Greek lower case letters do not extend below the line and are approximately as wide as they are high The height of these lower case letters are one-half of the height of their corresponding upper case letters

1 2 34 5 5 3

1 (alpha) should be written as a figure 8 laid on its side and opened on the right and not as the English ldquoardquo

2 The (iōta) is never dotted 3 The letters (nū) and (upsīlon) are easily confused Write pointed at

the bottom and turn the right upward stroke inward at the top is written rounded at the bottom with the right straight upward stroke

1 Both (gamma) and (chī) may be written crossing the line 2 (ēta) and (final sigma) are not usually made to extend as far below

the line as the others in this group 3 A sufficient stem on (mū) distinguishes it from (upsīlon) Notice these

distinctions in the following word pairs

4 (rhō) must not be confused with ldquoPprdquo in English nor (ōmega) with the English ldquowrdquo

5 There is one sigma with two forms It is written at the beginning or in the middle of a word and at the end Examples

6 The stems of (phī) and (psī) extend above the middle line123 Three of the Greek lower case letters rest on the line but are twice as high as in sect121 above These letters are delta thēta and lambda These lower case lettersrsquo height corresponds to their upper case letters

Below are all of the lower case letters in their alphabetical order This may prove helpful because it illustrates their respective height when written together

Listen 13 Greek Capital Letters Listen All of the capital letters are of uniform height and rest on the base line They should be learned in conjunction with their corresponding small letters When practicing aim at simplicity clarity and ease of recognition Use the animated examples on-line or those given below to learn how to form the characters Every student will develop their own writing style and slight variations from the printed forms below will not generally cause confusion

The chart in the next section summarizes and highlights what has been presented thus far for all the Greek letters which will be helpful as a review The alphabetical letter names of the three variable vowels alpha iōta and upsīlon should be pronounced long when reciting the alphabet 14 The Greek Alphabet Charted The capital and small letters appear in the first column with their Greek and English spellings in the second and third columns respectively Breathing marks and accents have been included where appropriate (these will be introduced in Lesson Five) The fourth column gives an English approximate pronunciation of the Greek letter and its phonetic value in the fifth column The sixth column illustrates the English equivalent (transliteration) to the Greek letter The word alphabet ( from + ) is derived from the first two letters of the twenty-four Greek letters commonly used by the Greeks The consonants employed in the Greek alphabet are for the most part adapted from the Phoenician alphabet Originally the Greek alphabet had several other letters but they dropped out of use before the New Testament era However their continued influence is still felt especially in Greek verbs In addition the Greeks added five other letters that were not part of the Phoenician alphabet ( and which are the last five letters of the Greek alphabet) The Greek alphabetical letters did double duty serving also as numbers For example First John was written as ( = first letter in the alphabet) Second John was ( = second letter in the alphabet) and Third John was ( = third letter in the alphabet)

Lesson One The Greek Alphabet Sight and Sounds of the Greek Letters (Module A) Study Aid Level One Similarities and Differences

English Alphabet NTGreek Alphabet

1 English is read and written from left to right

1 NTGreek is read and written from left to right

2 In the English alphabet there are twenty-six letters Five letters are vowels (and sometimes ldquowrdquo and ldquoyrdquo) and twenty-one letters are consonants

2 The NTGreek alphabet has twenty-four letters Seven letters are vowels and seventeen letters are consonants

3 The English alphabet has both capital and small letters Almost all of the capitals look like their ldquoprintedrdquo small letters

3 The NTGreek alphabet has both capital and small letters Many Greek capitals do not look like their ldquoprintedrdquo small letters

4 English capitals are used for proper names and new sentences

4 Greek capitals are used for proper names first letter of a new paragraph and to mark the beginning of a direct quote

5 English letters are not written differently when they appear at the end of a word

5 One letter ( ) in NTGreek has a different form when it appears at the end of a word

6 It is impossible to learn to read English without knowing the meaning of words because letters and letter combinations can be pronounced in so many different ways For example the ldquocrdquo in ldquocatrdquo ldquocuberdquo and ldquocirclerdquo

6 NTGreek consonants and vowels are nearly always pronounced the same Therefore it is possible to learn to read NTGreek without knowing the meaning of words

7 English is pronounced differently in various places such as Canada Australia and the United States

7 NTGreek also has various pronunciations You will learn the phonetic pronunciation that is used in many colleges universities and seminaries

A Look Ahead Understanding some of the similarities and differences between the English and Greek alphabets is just the beginning of learning New Testament Greek This NTGreek course will equip anyone to read and understand New Testament Greek (NTGreek) Over one hundred lessons are planned to take you from your first steps in New Testament Greek to a thorough knowledge of the language that will rival any Bible college university or seminary study Lesson One introduced the sight and sounds of the twenty-four Greek alphabetical characters These same characters are further developed in Lesson Two by examining how they sound together in simple vowelmdashconsonant and consonant-vowel combinations so that the student will have confidence they are pronouncing Greek words properly In addition a phonetic pronunciation system is integrated in these lessons by means of MP3 audio files as well as later lessons Several special features to look forward to in all Greek lessons are

1 A large Greek point size is purposefully employed to aid the beginning student Greek words contained within paragraphs are 14 point and the font point size for illustrations is 16 point

2 Many MP3 audio files accompany every lesson If you wish to hear the audio portion of the lesson simply click on the link

3 A study guide is included at the end of every lesson that tests the student over the material studied in the lesson to advance more rapidly the learning curve

4 Many study aids are associated with each lesson These study aids give the student further opportunities to learn more by the added instructional materials exercises and quizzes Answer keys are provided when applicable The study aids are divided into three levels The different levels represent an escalating level of difficulty It is recommended to begin with the least difficult exercises in Level One and proceed through Level Three to receive the maximum benefit The study aid pages are paginated sequentially The abbreviation SA represents Study Aids followed by the lesson number and then the sequential study aid pagination

A Look Ahead Understanding some of the similarities and differences between the English and Greek alphabets is just the beginning of learning New Testament Greek This NTGreek course will equip anyone to read and understand New Testament Greek (NTGreek) Over one hundred lessons are planned to take you from your first steps in New Testament Greek to a thorough knowledge of the language that will rival any Bible college university or seminary study Lesson One introduced the sight and sounds of the twenty-four Greek alphabetical characters These same characters are further developed in Lesson Two by examining how they sound together in simple vowelmdashconsonant and consonant-vowel combinations so that the student will have confidence they are pronouncing Greek words properly In addition a phonetic pronunciation system is integrated in these lessons by means of MP3 audio files as well as later lessons Several special features to look forward to in all Greek lessons are

1 A large Greek point size is purposefully employed to aid the beginning student Greek words contained within paragraphs are 14 point and the font point size for illustrations is 16 point

2 Many MP3 audio files accompany every lesson If you wish to hear the audio portion of the lesson simply click on the link

3 A study guide is included at the end of every lesson that tests the student over the material studied in the lesson to advance more rapidly the learning curve

4 Many study aids are associated with each lesson These study aids give the student further opportunities to learn more by the added instructional materials exercises and quizzes Answer keys are provided when applicable The study aids are divided into three levels The different levels represent an escalating level of difficulty It is recommended to begin with the least difficult exercises in Level One and proceed through Level Three to receive the maximum benefit The study aid pages are paginated sequentially The abbreviation SA represents Study Aids followed by the lesson number and then the sequential study aid pagination

Lesson One The Greek Alphabet Sight and Sounds of the Greek Letters (Module A) Study Aid Level One Similarities and Differences

English Alphabet NTGreek Alphabet

1 English is read and written from left to right

1 NTGreek is read and written from left to right

2 In the English alphabet there are twenty-six letters Five letters are vowels (and sometimes ldquowrdquo and ldquoyrdquo) and twenty-one letters are consonants

2 The NTGreek alphabet has twenty-four letters Seven letters are vowels and seventeen letters are consonants

3 The English alphabet has both capital and small letters Almost all of the capitals look like their ldquoprintedrdquo small letters

3 The NTGreek alphabet has both capital and small letters Many Greek capitals do not look like their ldquoprintedrdquo small letters

4 English capitals are used for proper names and new sentences

4 Greek capitals are used for proper names first letter of a new paragraph and to mark the beginning of a direct quote

5 English letters are not written differently when they appear at the end of a word

5 One letter ( ) in NTGreek has a different form when it appears at the end of a word

6 It is impossible to learn to read English without knowing the meaning of words because letters and letter combinations can be pronounced in so many different ways For example the ldquocrdquo in ldquocatrdquo ldquocuberdquo and ldquocirclerdquo

6 NTGreek consonants and vowels are nearly always pronounced the same Therefore it is possible to learn to read NTGreek without knowing the meaning of words

7 English is pronounced differently in various places such as Canada Australia and the United States

7 NTGreek also has various pronunciations You will learn the phonetic pronunciation that is used in many colleges universities and seminaries

A Look Ahead Understanding some of the similarities and differences between the English and Greek alphabets is just the beginning of learning New Testament Greek This NTGreek course will equip anyone to read and understand New Testament Greek (NTGreek) Over one hundred lessons are planned to take you from your first steps in New Testament Greek to a thorough knowledge of the language that will rival any Bible college university or seminary study Lesson One introduced the sight and sounds of the twenty-four Greek alphabetical characters These same characters are further developed in Lesson Two by examining how they sound together in simple vowelmdashconsonant and consonant-vowel combinations so that the student will have confidence they are pronouncing Greek words properly In addition a phonetic pronunciation system is integrated in these lessons by means of MP3 audio files as well as later lessons Several special features to look forward to in all Greek lessons are

1 A large Greek point size is purposefully employed to aid the beginning student Greek words contained within paragraphs are 14 point and the font point size for illustrations is 16 point

2 Many MP3 audio files accompany every lesson If you wish to hear the audio portion of the lesson simply click on the link

3 A study guide is included at the end of every lesson that tests the student over the material studied in the lesson to advance more rapidly the learning curve

4 Many study aids are associated with each lesson These study aids give the student further opportunities to learn more by the added instructional materials exercises and quizzes Answer keys are provided when applicable The study aids are divided into three levels The different levels represent an escalating level of difficulty It is recommended to begin with the least difficult exercises in Level One and proceed through Level Three to receive the maximum benefit The study aid pages are paginated sequentially The abbreviation SA represents Study Aids followed by the lesson number and then the sequential study aid pagination

5 English letters are not written differently when they appear at the end of a word

5 One letter ( ) in NTGreek has a different form when it appears at the end of a word

6 It is impossible to learn to read English without knowing the meaning of words because letters and letter combinations can be pronounced in so many different ways For example the ldquocrdquo in ldquocatrdquo ldquocuberdquo and ldquocirclerdquo

6 NTGreek consonants and vowels are nearly always pronounced the same Therefore it is possible to learn to read NTGreek without knowing the meaning of words

7 English is pronounced differently in various places such as Canada Australia and the United States

7 NTGreek also has various pronunciations You will learn the phonetic pronunciation that is used in many colleges universities and seminaries

Lesson One The Greek Alphabet Sight and Sounds of the Greek Letters (Module A) Study Aid Level One Similarities and Differences

English Alphabet NTGreek Alphabet

1 English is read and written from left to right

1 NTGreek is read and written from left to right

2 In the English alphabet there are twenty-six letters Five letters are vowels (and sometimes ldquowrdquo and ldquoyrdquo) and twenty-one letters are consonants

2 The NTGreek alphabet has twenty-four letters Seven letters are vowels and seventeen letters are consonants

3 The English alphabet has both capital and small letters Almost all of the capitals look like their ldquoprintedrdquo small letters

3 The NTGreek alphabet has both capital and small letters Many Greek capitals do not look like their ldquoprintedrdquo small letters

4 English capitals are used for proper names and new sentences

4 Greek capitals are used for proper names first letter of a new paragraph and to mark the beginning of a direct quote

5 English letters are not written differently when they appear at the end of a word

5 One letter ( ) in NTGreek has a different form when it appears at the end of a word

6 It is impossible to learn to read English without knowing the meaning of words because letters and letter combinations can be pronounced in so many different ways For example the ldquocrdquo in ldquocatrdquo ldquocuberdquo and ldquocirclerdquo

6 NTGreek consonants and vowels are nearly always pronounced the same Therefore it is possible to learn to read NTGreek without knowing the meaning of words

7 English is pronounced differently in various places such as Canada Australia and the United States

7 NTGreek also has various pronunciations You will learn the phonetic pronunciation that is used in many colleges universities and seminaries

A Look Ahead Understanding some of the similarities and differences between the English and Greek alphabets is just the beginning of learning New Testament Greek This NTGreek course will equip anyone to read and understand New Testament Greek (NTGreek) Over one hundred lessons are planned to take you from your first steps in New Testament Greek to a thorough knowledge of the language that will rival any Bible college university or seminary study Lesson One introduced the sight and sounds of the twenty-four Greek alphabetical characters These same characters are further developed in Lesson Two by examining how they sound together in simple vowelmdashconsonant and consonant-vowel combinations so that the student will have confidence they are pronouncing Greek words properly In addition a phonetic pronunciation system is integrated in these lessons by means of MP3 audio files as well as later lessons Several special features to look forward to in all Greek lessons are

1 A large Greek point size is purposefully employed to aid the beginning student Greek words contained within paragraphs are 14 point and the font point size for illustrations is 16 point

2 Many MP3 audio files accompany every lesson If you wish to hear the audio portion of the lesson simply click on the link

3 A study guide is included at the end of every lesson that tests the student over the material studied in the lesson to advance more rapidly the learning curve

4 Many study aids are associated with each lesson These study aids give the student further opportunities to learn more by the added instructional materials exercises and quizzes Answer keys are provided when applicable The study aids are divided into three levels The different levels represent an escalating level of difficulty It is recommended to begin with the least difficult exercises in Level One and proceed through Level Three to receive the maximum benefit The study aid pages are paginated sequentially The abbreviation SA represents Study Aids followed by the lesson number and then the sequential study aid pagination

111 Memorizing the Greek alphabet Similarities exist between the Greek and English alphabetical letters These similarities exist in form (orthography) and sound (phoneme) The Greek alphabetical order parallels the English for a while then differs and then begins to parallel again It is recommended that the Greek alphabet be memorized in five groups of letters each beginning with a familiar looking English corresponding vowel (alpha) (epsīlon) (iōta) (omīkron) and (upsīlon) These suggested groupings follow

12 Greek Small Letters 121 Eleven of the Greek lower case letters do not extend below the line and are approximately as wide as they are high The height of these lower case letters are one-half of the height of their corresponding upper case letters

1 2 34 5 5 3

1 (alpha) should be written as a figure 8 laid on its side and opened on the right and not as the English ldquoardquo

2 The (iōta) is never dotted 3 The letters (nū) and (upsīlon) are easily confused Write pointed at

the bottom and turn the right upward stroke inward at the top is written rounded at the bottom with the right straight upward stroke

4 (nū) should not be confused with the English ldquovrdquo The English ldquovrdquo has no Greek counterpart Furthermore never say ldquonrdquo for

5 There is another pair of letters other than and which may be confused except for a small but a very important difference omīkron () and sigma () Notice that sigma wears a hat whereas omīkron does not

122 Eight Greek lower case letters rest on the line and extend below it and are as high as those in sect121 None of their corresponding upper case letters drop below the line

1 Both (gamma) and (chī) may be written crossing the line 2 (ēta) and (final sigma) are not usually made to extend as far below

the line as the others in this group 3 A sufficient stem on (mū) distinguishes it from (upsīlon) Notice these

distinctions in the following word pairs

4 (rhō) must not be confused with ldquoPprdquo in English nor (ōmega) with the English ldquowrdquo

5 There is one sigma with two forms It is written at the beginning or in the middle of a word and at the end Examples

6 The stems of (phī) and (psī) extend above the middle line123 Three of the Greek lower case letters rest on the line but are twice as high as in sect121 above These letters are delta thēta and lambda These lower case lettersrsquo height corresponds to their upper case letters

Below are all of the lower case letters in their alphabetical order This may prove helpful because it illustrates their respective height when written together

Listen 13 Greek Capital Letters Listen All of the capital letters are of uniform height and rest on the base line They should be learned in conjunction with their corresponding small letters When practicing aim at simplicity clarity and ease of recognition Use the animated examples on-line or those given below to learn how to form the characters Every student will develop their own writing style and slight variations from the printed forms below will not generally cause confusion

The chart in the next section summarizes and highlights what has been presented thus far for all the Greek letters which will be helpful as a review The alphabetical letter names of the three variable vowels alpha iōta and upsīlon should be pronounced long when reciting the alphabet 14 The Greek Alphabet Charted The capital and small letters appear in the first column with their Greek and English spellings in the second and third columns respectively Breathing marks and accents have been included where appropriate (these will be introduced in Lesson Five) The fourth column gives an English approximate pronunciation of the Greek letter and its phonetic value in the fifth column The sixth column illustrates the English equivalent (transliteration) to the Greek letter The word alphabet ( from + ) is derived from the first two letters of the twenty-four Greek letters commonly used by the Greeks The consonants employed in the Greek alphabet are for the most part adapted from the Phoenician alphabet Originally the Greek alphabet had several other letters but they dropped out of use before the New Testament era However their continued influence is still felt especially in Greek verbs In addition the Greeks added five other letters that were not part of the Phoenician alphabet ( and which are the last five letters of the Greek alphabet) The Greek alphabetical letters did double duty serving also as numbers For example First John was written as ( = first letter in the alphabet) Second John was ( = second letter in the alphabet) and Third John was ( = third letter in the alphabet)

Lesson One The Greek Alphabet Sight and Sounds of the Greek Letters (Module A) Study Aid Level One Similarities and Differences

English Alphabet NTGreek Alphabet

1 English is read and written from left to right

1 NTGreek is read and written from left to right

2 In the English alphabet there are twenty-six letters Five letters are vowels (and sometimes ldquowrdquo and ldquoyrdquo) and twenty-one letters are consonants

2 The NTGreek alphabet has twenty-four letters Seven letters are vowels and seventeen letters are consonants

3 The English alphabet has both capital and small letters Almost all of the capitals look like their ldquoprintedrdquo small letters

3 The NTGreek alphabet has both capital and small letters Many Greek capitals do not look like their ldquoprintedrdquo small letters

4 English capitals are used for proper names and new sentences

4 Greek capitals are used for proper names first letter of a new paragraph and to mark the beginning of a direct quote

5 English letters are not written differently when they appear at the end of a word

5 One letter ( ) in NTGreek has a different form when it appears at the end of a word

6 It is impossible to learn to read English without knowing the meaning of words because letters and letter combinations can be pronounced in so many different ways For example the ldquocrdquo in ldquocatrdquo ldquocuberdquo and ldquocirclerdquo

6 NTGreek consonants and vowels are nearly always pronounced the same Therefore it is possible to learn to read NTGreek without knowing the meaning of words

7 English is pronounced differently in various places such as Canada Australia and the United States

7 NTGreek also has various pronunciations You will learn the phonetic pronunciation that is used in many colleges universities and seminaries

A Look Ahead Understanding some of the similarities and differences between the English and Greek alphabets is just the beginning of learning New Testament Greek This NTGreek course will equip anyone to read and understand New Testament Greek (NTGreek) Over one hundred lessons are planned to take you from your first steps in New Testament Greek to a thorough knowledge of the language that will rival any Bible college university or seminary study Lesson One introduced the sight and sounds of the twenty-four Greek alphabetical characters These same characters are further developed in Lesson Two by examining how they sound together in simple vowelmdashconsonant and consonant-vowel combinations so that the student will have confidence they are pronouncing Greek words properly In addition a phonetic pronunciation system is integrated in these lessons by means of MP3 audio files as well as later lessons Several special features to look forward to in all Greek lessons are

1 A large Greek point size is purposefully employed to aid the beginning student Greek words contained within paragraphs are 14 point and the font point size for illustrations is 16 point

2 Many MP3 audio files accompany every lesson If you wish to hear the audio portion of the lesson simply click on the link

3 A study guide is included at the end of every lesson that tests the student over the material studied in the lesson to advance more rapidly the learning curve

4 Many study aids are associated with each lesson These study aids give the student further opportunities to learn more by the added instructional materials exercises and quizzes Answer keys are provided when applicable The study aids are divided into three levels The different levels represent an escalating level of difficulty It is recommended to begin with the least difficult exercises in Level One and proceed through Level Three to receive the maximum benefit The study aid pages are paginated sequentially The abbreviation SA represents Study Aids followed by the lesson number and then the sequential study aid pagination

111 Memorizing the Greek alphabet Similarities exist between the Greek and English alphabetical letters These similarities exist in form (orthography) and sound (phoneme) The Greek alphabetical order parallels the English for a while then differs and then begins to parallel again It is recommended that the Greek alphabet be memorized in five groups of letters each beginning with a familiar looking English corresponding vowel (alpha) (epsīlon) (iōta) (omīkron) and (upsīlon) These suggested groupings follow

12 Greek Small Letters 121 Eleven of the Greek lower case letters do not extend below the line and are approximately as wide as they are high The height of these lower case letters are one-half of the height of their corresponding upper case letters

1 2 34 5 5 3

1 (alpha) should be written as a figure 8 laid on its side and opened on the right and not as the English ldquoardquo

2 The (iōta) is never dotted 3 The letters (nū) and (upsīlon) are easily confused Write pointed at

the bottom and turn the right upward stroke inward at the top is written rounded at the bottom with the right straight upward stroke

1 Both (gamma) and (chī) may be written crossing the line 2 (ēta) and (final sigma) are not usually made to extend as far below

the line as the others in this group 3 A sufficient stem on (mū) distinguishes it from (upsīlon) Notice these

distinctions in the following word pairs

4 (rhō) must not be confused with ldquoPprdquo in English nor (ōmega) with the English ldquowrdquo

5 There is one sigma with two forms It is written at the beginning or in the middle of a word and at the end Examples

6 The stems of (phī) and (psī) extend above the middle line123 Three of the Greek lower case letters rest on the line but are twice as high as in sect121 above These letters are delta thēta and lambda These lower case lettersrsquo height corresponds to their upper case letters

The chart in the next section summarizes and highlights what has been presented thus far for all the Greek letters which will be helpful as a review The alphabetical letter names of the three variable vowels alpha iōta and upsīlon should be pronounced long when reciting the alphabet 14 The Greek Alphabet Charted The capital and small letters appear in the first column with their Greek and English spellings in the second and third columns respectively Breathing marks and accents have been included where appropriate (these will be introduced in Lesson Five) The fourth column gives an English approximate pronunciation of the Greek letter and its phonetic value in the fifth column The sixth column illustrates the English equivalent (transliteration) to the Greek letter The word alphabet ( from + ) is derived from the first two letters of the twenty-four Greek letters commonly used by the Greeks The consonants employed in the Greek alphabet are for the most part adapted from the Phoenician alphabet Originally the Greek alphabet had several other letters but they dropped out of use before the New Testament era However their continued influence is still felt especially in Greek verbs In addition the Greeks added five other letters that were not part of the Phoenician alphabet ( and which are the last five letters of the Greek alphabet) The Greek alphabetical letters did double duty serving also as numbers For example First John was written as ( = first letter in the alphabet) Second John was ( = second letter in the alphabet) and Third John was ( = third letter in the alphabet)

5 English letters are not written differently when they appear at the end of a word

5 One letter ( ) in NTGreek has a different form when it appears at the end of a word

6 It is impossible to learn to read English without knowing the meaning of words because letters and letter combinations can be pronounced in so many different ways For example the ldquocrdquo in ldquocatrdquo ldquocuberdquo and ldquocirclerdquo

6 NTGreek consonants and vowels are nearly always pronounced the same Therefore it is possible to learn to read NTGreek without knowing the meaning of words

7 English is pronounced differently in various places such as Canada Australia and the United States

7 NTGreek also has various pronunciations You will learn the phonetic pronunciation that is used in many colleges universities and seminaries

5 English letters are not written differently when they appear at the end of a word

5 One letter ( ) in NTGreek has a different form when it appears at the end of a word

6 It is impossible to learn to read English without knowing the meaning of words because letters and letter combinations can be pronounced in so many different ways For example the ldquocrdquo in ldquocatrdquo ldquocuberdquo and ldquocirclerdquo

6 NTGreek consonants and vowels are nearly always pronounced the same Therefore it is possible to learn to read NTGreek without knowing the meaning of words

7 English is pronounced differently in various places such as Canada Australia and the United States

7 NTGreek also has various pronunciations You will learn the phonetic pronunciation that is used in many colleges universities and seminaries

A Look Ahead Understanding some of the similarities and differences between the English and Greek alphabets is just the beginning of learning New Testament Greek This NTGreek course will equip anyone to read and understand New Testament Greek (NTGreek) Over one hundred lessons are planned to take you from your first steps in New Testament Greek to a thorough knowledge of the language that will rival any Bible college university or seminary study Lesson One introduced the sight and sounds of the twenty-four Greek alphabetical characters These same characters are further developed in Lesson Two by examining how they sound together in simple vowelmdashconsonant and consonant-vowel combinations so that the student will have confidence they are pronouncing Greek words properly In addition a phonetic pronunciation system is integrated in these lessons by means of MP3 audio files as well as later lessons Several special features to look forward to in all Greek lessons are

1 A large Greek point size is purposefully employed to aid the beginning student Greek words contained within paragraphs are 14 point and the font point size for illustrations is 16 point

2 Many MP3 audio files accompany every lesson If you wish to hear the audio portion of the lesson simply click on the link

3 A study guide is included at the end of every lesson that tests the student over the material studied in the lesson to advance more rapidly the learning curve

4 Many study aids are associated with each lesson These study aids give the student further opportunities to learn more by the added instructional materials exercises and quizzes Answer keys are provided when applicable The study aids are divided into three levels The different levels represent an escalating level of difficulty It is recommended to begin with the least difficult exercises in Level One and proceed through Level Three to receive the maximum benefit The study aid pages are paginated sequentially The abbreviation SA represents Study Aids followed by the lesson number and then the sequential study aid pagination

The chart in the next section summarizes and highlights what has been presented thus far for all the Greek letters which will be helpful as a review The alphabetical letter names of the three variable vowels alpha iōta and upsīlon should be pronounced long when reciting the alphabet 14 The Greek Alphabet Charted The capital and small letters appear in the first column with their Greek and English spellings in the second and third columns respectively Breathing marks and accents have been included where appropriate (these will be introduced in Lesson Five) The fourth column gives an English approximate pronunciation of the Greek letter and its phonetic value in the fifth column The sixth column illustrates the English equivalent (transliteration) to the Greek letter The word alphabet ( from + ) is derived from the first two letters of the twenty-four Greek letters commonly used by the Greeks The consonants employed in the Greek alphabet are for the most part adapted from the Phoenician alphabet Originally the Greek alphabet had several other letters but they dropped out of use before the New Testament era However their continued influence is still felt especially in Greek verbs In addition the Greeks added five other letters that were not part of the Phoenician alphabet ( and which are the last five letters of the Greek alphabet) The Greek alphabetical letters did double duty serving also as numbers For example First John was written as ( = first letter in the alphabet) Second John was ( = second letter in the alphabet) and Third John was ( = third letter in the alphabet)

Lesson One The Greek Alphabet Sight and Sounds of the Greek Letters (Module A) Study Aid Level One Similarities and Differences

English Alphabet NTGreek Alphabet

1 English is read and written from left to right

1 NTGreek is read and written from left to right

2 In the English alphabet there are twenty-six letters Five letters are vowels (and sometimes ldquowrdquo and ldquoyrdquo) and twenty-one letters are consonants

2 The NTGreek alphabet has twenty-four letters Seven letters are vowels and seventeen letters are consonants

3 The English alphabet has both capital and small letters Almost all of the capitals look like their ldquoprintedrdquo small letters

3 The NTGreek alphabet has both capital and small letters Many Greek capitals do not look like their ldquoprintedrdquo small letters

4 English capitals are used for proper names and new sentences

4 Greek capitals are used for proper names first letter of a new paragraph and to mark the beginning of a direct quote

5 English letters are not written differently when they appear at the end of a word

5 One letter ( ) in NTGreek has a different form when it appears at the end of a word

6 It is impossible to learn to read English without knowing the meaning of words because letters and letter combinations can be pronounced in so many different ways For example the ldquocrdquo in ldquocatrdquo ldquocuberdquo and ldquocirclerdquo

6 NTGreek consonants and vowels are nearly always pronounced the same Therefore it is possible to learn to read NTGreek without knowing the meaning of words

7 English is pronounced differently in various places such as Canada Australia and the United States

7 NTGreek also has various pronunciations You will learn the phonetic pronunciation that is used in many colleges universities and seminaries

Lesson One The Greek Alphabet Sight and Sounds of the Greek Letters (Module A) Study Aid Level One Similarities and Differences

English Alphabet NTGreek Alphabet

1 English is read and written from left to right

1 NTGreek is read and written from left to right

2 In the English alphabet there are twenty-six letters Five letters are vowels (and sometimes ldquowrdquo and ldquoyrdquo) and twenty-one letters are consonants

2 The NTGreek alphabet has twenty-four letters Seven letters are vowels and seventeen letters are consonants

3 The English alphabet has both capital and small letters Almost all of the capitals look like their ldquoprintedrdquo small letters

3 The NTGreek alphabet has both capital and small letters Many Greek capitals do not look like their ldquoprintedrdquo small letters

4 English capitals are used for proper names and new sentences

4 Greek capitals are used for proper names first letter of a new paragraph and to mark the beginning of a direct quote

5 English letters are not written differently when they appear at the end of a word

5 One letter ( ) in NTGreek has a different form when it appears at the end of a word

6 It is impossible to learn to read English without knowing the meaning of words because letters and letter combinations can be pronounced in so many different ways For example the ldquocrdquo in ldquocatrdquo ldquocuberdquo and ldquocirclerdquo

6 NTGreek consonants and vowels are nearly always pronounced the same Therefore it is possible to learn to read NTGreek without knowing the meaning of words

7 English is pronounced differently in various places such as Canada Australia and the United States

7 NTGreek also has various pronunciations You will learn the phonetic pronunciation that is used in many colleges universities and seminaries

A Look Ahead Understanding some of the similarities and differences between the English and Greek alphabets is just the beginning of learning New Testament Greek This NTGreek course will equip anyone to read and understand New Testament Greek (NTGreek) Over one hundred lessons are planned to take you from your first steps in New Testament Greek to a thorough knowledge of the language that will rival any Bible college university or seminary study Lesson One introduced the sight and sounds of the twenty-four Greek alphabetical characters These same characters are further developed in Lesson Two by examining how they sound together in simple vowelmdashconsonant and consonant-vowel combinations so that the student will have confidence they are pronouncing Greek words properly In addition a phonetic pronunciation system is integrated in these lessons by means of MP3 audio files as well as later lessons Several special features to look forward to in all Greek lessons are

1 A large Greek point size is purposefully employed to aid the beginning student Greek words contained within paragraphs are 14 point and the font point size for illustrations is 16 point

2 Many MP3 audio files accompany every lesson If you wish to hear the audio portion of the lesson simply click on the link

3 A study guide is included at the end of every lesson that tests the student over the material studied in the lesson to advance more rapidly the learning curve

4 Many study aids are associated with each lesson These study aids give the student further opportunities to learn more by the added instructional materials exercises and quizzes Answer keys are provided when applicable The study aids are divided into three levels The different levels represent an escalating level of difficulty It is recommended to begin with the least difficult exercises in Level One and proceed through Level Three to receive the maximum benefit The study aid pages are paginated sequentially The abbreviation SA represents Study Aids followed by the lesson number and then the sequential study aid pagination

Lesson One The Greek Alphabet Sight and Sounds of the Greek Letters (Module A) Study Aid Level One Similarities and Differences

English Alphabet NTGreek Alphabet

1 English is read and written from left to right

1 NTGreek is read and written from left to right

2 In the English alphabet there are twenty-six letters Five letters are vowels (and sometimes ldquowrdquo and ldquoyrdquo) and twenty-one letters are consonants

2 The NTGreek alphabet has twenty-four letters Seven letters are vowels and seventeen letters are consonants

3 The English alphabet has both capital and small letters Almost all of the capitals look like their ldquoprintedrdquo small letters

3 The NTGreek alphabet has both capital and small letters Many Greek capitals do not look like their ldquoprintedrdquo small letters

4 English capitals are used for proper names and new sentences

4 Greek capitals are used for proper names first letter of a new paragraph and to mark the beginning of a direct quote

5 English letters are not written differently when they appear at the end of a word

5 One letter ( ) in NTGreek has a different form when it appears at the end of a word

6 It is impossible to learn to read English without knowing the meaning of words because letters and letter combinations can be pronounced in so many different ways For example the ldquocrdquo in ldquocatrdquo ldquocuberdquo and ldquocirclerdquo

6 NTGreek consonants and vowels are nearly always pronounced the same Therefore it is possible to learn to read NTGreek without knowing the meaning of words

7 English is pronounced differently in various places such as Canada Australia and the United States

7 NTGreek also has various pronunciations You will learn the phonetic pronunciation that is used in many colleges universities and seminaries

A Look Ahead Understanding some of the similarities and differences between the English and Greek alphabets is just the beginning of learning New Testament Greek This NTGreek course will equip anyone to read and understand New Testament Greek (NTGreek) Over one hundred lessons are planned to take you from your first steps in New Testament Greek to a thorough knowledge of the language that will rival any Bible college university or seminary study Lesson One introduced the sight and sounds of the twenty-four Greek alphabetical characters These same characters are further developed in Lesson Two by examining how they sound together in simple vowelmdashconsonant and consonant-vowel combinations so that the student will have confidence they are pronouncing Greek words properly In addition a phonetic pronunciation system is integrated in these lessons by means of MP3 audio files as well as later lessons Several special features to look forward to in all Greek lessons are

1 A large Greek point size is purposefully employed to aid the beginning student Greek words contained within paragraphs are 14 point and the font point size for illustrations is 16 point

2 Many MP3 audio files accompany every lesson If you wish to hear the audio portion of the lesson simply click on the link

3 A study guide is included at the end of every lesson that tests the student over the material studied in the lesson to advance more rapidly the learning curve

4 Many study aids are associated with each lesson These study aids give the student further opportunities to learn more by the added instructional materials exercises and quizzes Answer keys are provided when applicable The study aids are divided into three levels The different levels represent an escalating level of difficulty It is recommended to begin with the least difficult exercises in Level One and proceed through Level Three to receive the maximum benefit The study aid pages are paginated sequentially The abbreviation SA represents Study Aids followed by the lesson number and then the sequential study aid pagination

Lesson One The Greek Alphabet Sight and Sounds of the Greek Letters (Module A) Study Aid Level One Similarities and Differences

English Alphabet NTGreek Alphabet

1 English is read and written from left to right

1 NTGreek is read and written from left to right

2 In the English alphabet there are twenty-six letters Five letters are vowels (and sometimes ldquowrdquo and ldquoyrdquo) and twenty-one letters are consonants

2 The NTGreek alphabet has twenty-four letters Seven letters are vowels and seventeen letters are consonants

3 The English alphabet has both capital and small letters Almost all of the capitals look like their ldquoprintedrdquo small letters

3 The NTGreek alphabet has both capital and small letters Many Greek capitals do not look like their ldquoprintedrdquo small letters

4 English capitals are used for proper names and new sentences

4 Greek capitals are used for proper names first letter of a new paragraph and to mark the beginning of a direct quote

5 English letters are not written differently when they appear at the end of a word

5 One letter ( ) in NTGreek has a different form when it appears at the end of a word

6 It is impossible to learn to read English without knowing the meaning of words because letters and letter combinations can be pronounced in so many different ways For example the ldquocrdquo in ldquocatrdquo ldquocuberdquo and ldquocirclerdquo

6 NTGreek consonants and vowels are nearly always pronounced the same Therefore it is possible to learn to read NTGreek without knowing the meaning of words

7 English is pronounced differently in various places such as Canada Australia and the United States

7 NTGreek also has various pronunciations You will learn the phonetic pronunciation that is used in many colleges universities and seminaries

A Look Ahead Understanding some of the similarities and differences between the English and Greek alphabets is just the beginning of learning New Testament Greek This NTGreek course will equip anyone to read and understand New Testament Greek (NTGreek) Over one hundred lessons are planned to take you from your first steps in New Testament Greek to a thorough knowledge of the language that will rival any Bible college university or seminary study Lesson One introduced the sight and sounds of the twenty-four Greek alphabetical characters These same characters are further developed in Lesson Two by examining how they sound together in simple vowelmdashconsonant and consonant-vowel combinations so that the student will have confidence they are pronouncing Greek words properly In addition a phonetic pronunciation system is integrated in these lessons by means of MP3 audio files as well as later lessons Several special features to look forward to in all Greek lessons are

1 A large Greek point size is purposefully employed to aid the beginning student Greek words contained within paragraphs are 14 point and the font point size for illustrations is 16 point

2 Many MP3 audio files accompany every lesson If you wish to hear the audio portion of the lesson simply click on the link

3 A study guide is included at the end of every lesson that tests the student over the material studied in the lesson to advance more rapidly the learning curve

4 Many study aids are associated with each lesson These study aids give the student further opportunities to learn more by the added instructional materials exercises and quizzes Answer keys are provided when applicable The study aids are divided into three levels The different levels represent an escalating level of difficulty It is recommended to begin with the least difficult exercises in Level One and proceed through Level Three to receive the maximum benefit The study aid pages are paginated sequentially The abbreviation SA represents Study Aids followed by the lesson number and then the sequential study aid pagination

Lesson One The Greek Alphabet Sight and Sounds of the Greek Letters (Module A) Study Aid Level One Similarities and Differences

English Alphabet NTGreek Alphabet

1 English is read and written from left to right

1 NTGreek is read and written from left to right

2 In the English alphabet there are twenty-six letters Five letters are vowels (and sometimes ldquowrdquo and ldquoyrdquo) and twenty-one letters are consonants

2 The NTGreek alphabet has twenty-four letters Seven letters are vowels and seventeen letters are consonants

3 The English alphabet has both capital and small letters Almost all of the capitals look like their ldquoprintedrdquo small letters

3 The NTGreek alphabet has both capital and small letters Many Greek capitals do not look like their ldquoprintedrdquo small letters

4 English capitals are used for proper names and new sentences

4 Greek capitals are used for proper names first letter of a new paragraph and to mark the beginning of a direct quote

5 English letters are not written differently when they appear at the end of a word

5 One letter ( ) in NTGreek has a different form when it appears at the end of a word

6 It is impossible to learn to read English without knowing the meaning of words because letters and letter combinations can be pronounced in so many different ways For example the ldquocrdquo in ldquocatrdquo ldquocuberdquo and ldquocirclerdquo

6 NTGreek consonants and vowels are nearly always pronounced the same Therefore it is possible to learn to read NTGreek without knowing the meaning of words

7 English is pronounced differently in various places such as Canada Australia and the United States

7 NTGreek also has various pronunciations You will learn the phonetic pronunciation that is used in many colleges universities and seminaries

A Look Ahead Understanding some of the similarities and differences between the English and Greek alphabets is just the beginning of learning New Testament Greek This NTGreek course will equip anyone to read and understand New Testament Greek (NTGreek) Over one hundred lessons are planned to take you from your first steps in New Testament Greek to a thorough knowledge of the language that will rival any Bible college university or seminary study Lesson One introduced the sight and sounds of the twenty-four Greek alphabetical characters These same characters are further developed in Lesson Two by examining how they sound together in simple vowelmdashconsonant and consonant-vowel combinations so that the student will have confidence they are pronouncing Greek words properly In addition a phonetic pronunciation system is integrated in these lessons by means of MP3 audio files as well as later lessons Several special features to look forward to in all Greek lessons are

1 A large Greek point size is purposefully employed to aid the beginning student Greek words contained within paragraphs are 14 point and the font point size for illustrations is 16 point

2 Many MP3 audio files accompany every lesson If you wish to hear the audio portion of the lesson simply click on the link

3 A study guide is included at the end of every lesson that tests the student over the material studied in the lesson to advance more rapidly the learning curve

4 Many study aids are associated with each lesson These study aids give the student further opportunities to learn more by the added instructional materials exercises and quizzes Answer keys are provided when applicable The study aids are divided into three levels The different levels represent an escalating level of difficulty It is recommended to begin with the least difficult exercises in Level One and proceed through Level Three to receive the maximum benefit The study aid pages are paginated sequentially The abbreviation SA represents Study Aids followed by the lesson number and then the sequential study aid pagination

Lesson One The Greek Alphabet Sight and Sounds of the Greek Letters (Module A) Study Aid Level One Similarities and Differences

English Alphabet NTGreek Alphabet

1 English is read and written from left to right

1 NTGreek is read and written from left to right

2 In the English alphabet there are twenty-six letters Five letters are vowels (and sometimes ldquowrdquo and ldquoyrdquo) and twenty-one letters are consonants

2 The NTGreek alphabet has twenty-four letters Seven letters are vowels and seventeen letters are consonants

3 The English alphabet has both capital and small letters Almost all of the capitals look like their ldquoprintedrdquo small letters

3 The NTGreek alphabet has both capital and small letters Many Greek capitals do not look like their ldquoprintedrdquo small letters

4 English capitals are used for proper names and new sentences

4 Greek capitals are used for proper names first letter of a new paragraph and to mark the beginning of a direct quote

5 English letters are not written differently when they appear at the end of a word

5 One letter ( ) in NTGreek has a different form when it appears at the end of a word

6 It is impossible to learn to read English without knowing the meaning of words because letters and letter combinations can be pronounced in so many different ways For example the ldquocrdquo in ldquocatrdquo ldquocuberdquo and ldquocirclerdquo

6 NTGreek consonants and vowels are nearly always pronounced the same Therefore it is possible to learn to read NTGreek without knowing the meaning of words

7 English is pronounced differently in various places such as Canada Australia and the United States

7 NTGreek also has various pronunciations You will learn the phonetic pronunciation that is used in many colleges universities and seminaries

A Look Ahead Understanding some of the similarities and differences between the English and Greek alphabets is just the beginning of learning New Testament Greek This NTGreek course will equip anyone to read and understand New Testament Greek (NTGreek) Over one hundred lessons are planned to take you from your first steps in New Testament Greek to a thorough knowledge of the language that will rival any Bible college university or seminary study Lesson One introduced the sight and sounds of the twenty-four Greek alphabetical characters These same characters are further developed in Lesson Two by examining how they sound together in simple vowelmdashconsonant and consonant-vowel combinations so that the student will have confidence they are pronouncing Greek words properly In addition a phonetic pronunciation system is integrated in these lessons by means of MP3 audio files as well as later lessons Several special features to look forward to in all Greek lessons are

1 A large Greek point size is purposefully employed to aid the beginning student Greek words contained within paragraphs are 14 point and the font point size for illustrations is 16 point

2 Many MP3 audio files accompany every lesson If you wish to hear the audio portion of the lesson simply click on the link

3 A study guide is included at the end of every lesson that tests the student over the material studied in the lesson to advance more rapidly the learning curve

4 Many study aids are associated with each lesson These study aids give the student further opportunities to learn more by the added instructional materials exercises and quizzes Answer keys are provided when applicable The study aids are divided into three levels The different levels represent an escalating level of difficulty It is recommended to begin with the least difficult exercises in Level One and proceed through Level Three to receive the maximum benefit The study aid pages are paginated sequentially The abbreviation SA represents Study Aids followed by the lesson number and then the sequential study aid pagination

Lesson One The Greek Alphabet Sight and Sounds of the Greek Letters (Module A) Study Aid Level One Similarities and Differences

English Alphabet NTGreek Alphabet

1 English is read and written from left to right

1 NTGreek is read and written from left to right

2 In the English alphabet there are twenty-six letters Five letters are vowels (and sometimes ldquowrdquo and ldquoyrdquo) and twenty-one letters are consonants

2 The NTGreek alphabet has twenty-four letters Seven letters are vowels and seventeen letters are consonants

3 The English alphabet has both capital and small letters Almost all of the capitals look like their ldquoprintedrdquo small letters

3 The NTGreek alphabet has both capital and small letters Many Greek capitals do not look like their ldquoprintedrdquo small letters

4 English capitals are used for proper names and new sentences

4 Greek capitals are used for proper names first letter of a new paragraph and to mark the beginning of a direct quote

5 English letters are not written differently when they appear at the end of a word

5 One letter ( ) in NTGreek has a different form when it appears at the end of a word

6 It is impossible to learn to read English without knowing the meaning of words because letters and letter combinations can be pronounced in so many different ways For example the ldquocrdquo in ldquocatrdquo ldquocuberdquo and ldquocirclerdquo

6 NTGreek consonants and vowels are nearly always pronounced the same Therefore it is possible to learn to read NTGreek without knowing the meaning of words

7 English is pronounced differently in various places such as Canada Australia and the United States

7 NTGreek also has various pronunciations You will learn the phonetic pronunciation that is used in many colleges universities and seminaries

A Look Ahead Understanding some of the similarities and differences between the English and Greek alphabets is just the beginning of learning New Testament Greek This NTGreek course will equip anyone to read and understand New Testament Greek (NTGreek) Over one hundred lessons are planned to take you from your first steps in New Testament Greek to a thorough knowledge of the language that will rival any Bible college university or seminary study Lesson One introduced the sight and sounds of the twenty-four Greek alphabetical characters These same characters are further developed in Lesson Two by examining how they sound together in simple vowelmdashconsonant and consonant-vowel combinations so that the student will have confidence they are pronouncing Greek words properly In addition a phonetic pronunciation system is integrated in these lessons by means of MP3 audio files as well as later lessons Several special features to look forward to in all Greek lessons are

1 A large Greek point size is purposefully employed to aid the beginning student Greek words contained within paragraphs are 14 point and the font point size for illustrations is 16 point

2 Many MP3 audio files accompany every lesson If you wish to hear the audio portion of the lesson simply click on the link

3 A study guide is included at the end of every lesson that tests the student over the material studied in the lesson to advance more rapidly the learning curve

4 Many study aids are associated with each lesson These study aids give the student further opportunities to learn more by the added instructional materials exercises and quizzes Answer keys are provided when applicable The study aids are divided into three levels The different levels represent an escalating level of difficulty It is recommended to begin with the least difficult exercises in Level One and proceed through Level Three to receive the maximum benefit The study aid pages are paginated sequentially The abbreviation SA represents Study Aids followed by the lesson number and then the sequential study aid pagination

A Look Ahead Understanding some of the similarities and differences between the English and Greek alphabets is just the beginning of learning New Testament Greek This NTGreek course will equip anyone to read and understand New Testament Greek (NTGreek) Over one hundred lessons are planned to take you from your first steps in New Testament Greek to a thorough knowledge of the language that will rival any Bible college university or seminary study Lesson One introduced the sight and sounds of the twenty-four Greek alphabetical characters These same characters are further developed in Lesson Two by examining how they sound together in simple vowelmdashconsonant and consonant-vowel combinations so that the student will have confidence they are pronouncing Greek words properly In addition a phonetic pronunciation system is integrated in these lessons by means of MP3 audio files as well as later lessons Several special features to look forward to in all Greek lessons are

1 A large Greek point size is purposefully employed to aid the beginning student Greek words contained within paragraphs are 14 point and the font point size for illustrations is 16 point

2 Many MP3 audio files accompany every lesson If you wish to hear the audio portion of the lesson simply click on the link

3 A study guide is included at the end of every lesson that tests the student over the material studied in the lesson to advance more rapidly the learning curve

4 Many study aids are associated with each lesson These study aids give the student further opportunities to learn more by the added instructional materials exercises and quizzes Answer keys are provided when applicable The study aids are divided into three levels The different levels represent an escalating level of difficulty It is recommended to begin with the least difficult exercises in Level One and proceed through Level Three to receive the maximum benefit The study aid pages are paginated sequentially The abbreviation SA represents Study Aids followed by the lesson number and then the sequential study aid pagination

Lesson One The Greek Alphabet Sight and Sounds of the Greek Letters (Module A) Study Aid Level One Similarities and Differences

English Alphabet NTGreek Alphabet

1 English is read and written from left to right

1 NTGreek is read and written from left to right

2 In the English alphabet there are twenty-six letters Five letters are vowels (and sometimes ldquowrdquo and ldquoyrdquo) and twenty-one letters are consonants

2 The NTGreek alphabet has twenty-four letters Seven letters are vowels and seventeen letters are consonants

3 The English alphabet has both capital and small letters Almost all of the capitals look like their ldquoprintedrdquo small letters

3 The NTGreek alphabet has both capital and small letters Many Greek capitals do not look like their ldquoprintedrdquo small letters

4 English capitals are used for proper names and new sentences

4 Greek capitals are used for proper names first letter of a new paragraph and to mark the beginning of a direct quote

5 English letters are not written differently when they appear at the end of a word

5 One letter ( ) in NTGreek has a different form when it appears at the end of a word

6 It is impossible to learn to read English without knowing the meaning of words because letters and letter combinations can be pronounced in so many different ways For example the ldquocrdquo in ldquocatrdquo ldquocuberdquo and ldquocirclerdquo

6 NTGreek consonants and vowels are nearly always pronounced the same Therefore it is possible to learn to read NTGreek without knowing the meaning of words

7 English is pronounced differently in various places such as Canada Australia and the United States

7 NTGreek also has various pronunciations You will learn the phonetic pronunciation that is used in many colleges universities and seminaries

Lesson One The Greek Alphabet Sight and Sounds of the Greek Letters (Module A) Study Aid Level One Similarities and Differences

English Alphabet NTGreek Alphabet

1 English is read and written from left to right

1 NTGreek is read and written from left to right

2 In the English alphabet there are twenty-six letters Five letters are vowels (and sometimes ldquowrdquo and ldquoyrdquo) and twenty-one letters are consonants

2 The NTGreek alphabet has twenty-four letters Seven letters are vowels and seventeen letters are consonants

3 The English alphabet has both capital and small letters Almost all of the capitals look like their ldquoprintedrdquo small letters

3 The NTGreek alphabet has both capital and small letters Many Greek capitals do not look like their ldquoprintedrdquo small letters

4 English capitals are used for proper names and new sentences

4 Greek capitals are used for proper names first letter of a new paragraph and to mark the beginning of a direct quote

5 English letters are not written differently when they appear at the end of a word

5 One letter ( ) in NTGreek has a different form when it appears at the end of a word

6 It is impossible to learn to read English without knowing the meaning of words because letters and letter combinations can be pronounced in so many different ways For example the ldquocrdquo in ldquocatrdquo ldquocuberdquo and ldquocirclerdquo

6 NTGreek consonants and vowels are nearly always pronounced the same Therefore it is possible to learn to read NTGreek without knowing the meaning of words

7 English is pronounced differently in various places such as Canada Australia and the United States

7 NTGreek also has various pronunciations You will learn the phonetic pronunciation that is used in many colleges universities and seminaries

A Look Ahead Understanding some of the similarities and differences between the English and Greek alphabets is just the beginning of learning New Testament Greek This NTGreek course will equip anyone to read and understand New Testament Greek (NTGreek) Over one hundred lessons are planned to take you from your first steps in New Testament Greek to a thorough knowledge of the language that will rival any Bible college university or seminary study Lesson One introduced the sight and sounds of the twenty-four Greek alphabetical characters These same characters are further developed in Lesson Two by examining how they sound together in simple vowelmdashconsonant and consonant-vowel combinations so that the student will have confidence they are pronouncing Greek words properly In addition a phonetic pronunciation system is integrated in these lessons by means of MP3 audio files as well as later lessons Several special features to look forward to in all Greek lessons are

1 A large Greek point size is purposefully employed to aid the beginning student Greek words contained within paragraphs are 14 point and the font point size for illustrations is 16 point

2 Many MP3 audio files accompany every lesson If you wish to hear the audio portion of the lesson simply click on the link

3 A study guide is included at the end of every lesson that tests the student over the material studied in the lesson to advance more rapidly the learning curve

4 Many study aids are associated with each lesson These study aids give the student further opportunities to learn more by the added instructional materials exercises and quizzes Answer keys are provided when applicable The study aids are divided into three levels The different levels represent an escalating level of difficulty It is recommended to begin with the least difficult exercises in Level One and proceed through Level Three to receive the maximum benefit The study aid pages are paginated sequentially The abbreviation SA represents Study Aids followed by the lesson number and then the sequential study aid pagination

Lesson One The Greek Alphabet Sight and Sounds of the Greek Letters (Module A) Study Aid Level One Similarities and Differences

English Alphabet NTGreek Alphabet

1 English is read and written from left to right

1 NTGreek is read and written from left to right

2 In the English alphabet there are twenty-six letters Five letters are vowels (and sometimes ldquowrdquo and ldquoyrdquo) and twenty-one letters are consonants

2 The NTGreek alphabet has twenty-four letters Seven letters are vowels and seventeen letters are consonants

3 The English alphabet has both capital and small letters Almost all of the capitals look like their ldquoprintedrdquo small letters

3 The NTGreek alphabet has both capital and small letters Many Greek capitals do not look like their ldquoprintedrdquo small letters

4 English capitals are used for proper names and new sentences

4 Greek capitals are used for proper names first letter of a new paragraph and to mark the beginning of a direct quote

5 English letters are not written differently when they appear at the end of a word

5 One letter ( ) in NTGreek has a different form when it appears at the end of a word

6 It is impossible to learn to read English without knowing the meaning of words because letters and letter combinations can be pronounced in so many different ways For example the ldquocrdquo in ldquocatrdquo ldquocuberdquo and ldquocirclerdquo

6 NTGreek consonants and vowels are nearly always pronounced the same Therefore it is possible to learn to read NTGreek without knowing the meaning of words

7 English is pronounced differently in various places such as Canada Australia and the United States

7 NTGreek also has various pronunciations You will learn the phonetic pronunciation that is used in many colleges universities and seminaries

A Look Ahead Understanding some of the similarities and differences between the English and Greek alphabets is just the beginning of learning New Testament Greek This NTGreek course will equip anyone to read and understand New Testament Greek (NTGreek) Over one hundred lessons are planned to take you from your first steps in New Testament Greek to a thorough knowledge of the language that will rival any Bible college university or seminary study Lesson One introduced the sight and sounds of the twenty-four Greek alphabetical characters These same characters are further developed in Lesson Two by examining how they sound together in simple vowelmdashconsonant and consonant-vowel combinations so that the student will have confidence they are pronouncing Greek words properly In addition a phonetic pronunciation system is integrated in these lessons by means of MP3 audio files as well as later lessons Several special features to look forward to in all Greek lessons are

1 A large Greek point size is purposefully employed to aid the beginning student Greek words contained within paragraphs are 14 point and the font point size for illustrations is 16 point

2 Many MP3 audio files accompany every lesson If you wish to hear the audio portion of the lesson simply click on the link

3 A study guide is included at the end of every lesson that tests the student over the material studied in the lesson to advance more rapidly the learning curve

4 Many study aids are associated with each lesson These study aids give the student further opportunities to learn more by the added instructional materials exercises and quizzes Answer keys are provided when applicable The study aids are divided into three levels The different levels represent an escalating level of difficulty It is recommended to begin with the least difficult exercises in Level One and proceed through Level Three to receive the maximum benefit The study aid pages are paginated sequentially The abbreviation SA represents Study Aids followed by the lesson number and then the sequential study aid pagination

Lesson One The Greek Alphabet Sight and Sounds of the Greek Letters (Module A) Study Aid Level One Similarities and Differences

English Alphabet NTGreek Alphabet

1 English is read and written from left to right

1 NTGreek is read and written from left to right

2 In the English alphabet there are twenty-six letters Five letters are vowels (and sometimes ldquowrdquo and ldquoyrdquo) and twenty-one letters are consonants

2 The NTGreek alphabet has twenty-four letters Seven letters are vowels and seventeen letters are consonants

3 The English alphabet has both capital and small letters Almost all of the capitals look like their ldquoprintedrdquo small letters

3 The NTGreek alphabet has both capital and small letters Many Greek capitals do not look like their ldquoprintedrdquo small letters

4 English capitals are used for proper names and new sentences

4 Greek capitals are used for proper names first letter of a new paragraph and to mark the beginning of a direct quote

5 English letters are not written differently when they appear at the end of a word

5 One letter ( ) in NTGreek has a different form when it appears at the end of a word

6 It is impossible to learn to read English without knowing the meaning of words because letters and letter combinations can be pronounced in so many different ways For example the ldquocrdquo in ldquocatrdquo ldquocuberdquo and ldquocirclerdquo

6 NTGreek consonants and vowels are nearly always pronounced the same Therefore it is possible to learn to read NTGreek without knowing the meaning of words

7 English is pronounced differently in various places such as Canada Australia and the United States

7 NTGreek also has various pronunciations You will learn the phonetic pronunciation that is used in many colleges universities and seminaries

A Look Ahead Understanding some of the similarities and differences between the English and Greek alphabets is just the beginning of learning New Testament Greek This NTGreek course will equip anyone to read and understand New Testament Greek (NTGreek) Over one hundred lessons are planned to take you from your first steps in New Testament Greek to a thorough knowledge of the language that will rival any Bible college university or seminary study Lesson One introduced the sight and sounds of the twenty-four Greek alphabetical characters These same characters are further developed in Lesson Two by examining how they sound together in simple vowelmdashconsonant and consonant-vowel combinations so that the student will have confidence they are pronouncing Greek words properly In addition a phonetic pronunciation system is integrated in these lessons by means of MP3 audio files as well as later lessons Several special features to look forward to in all Greek lessons are

1 A large Greek point size is purposefully employed to aid the beginning student Greek words contained within paragraphs are 14 point and the font point size for illustrations is 16 point

2 Many MP3 audio files accompany every lesson If you wish to hear the audio portion of the lesson simply click on the link

3 A study guide is included at the end of every lesson that tests the student over the material studied in the lesson to advance more rapidly the learning curve

4 Many study aids are associated with each lesson These study aids give the student further opportunities to learn more by the added instructional materials exercises and quizzes Answer keys are provided when applicable The study aids are divided into three levels The different levels represent an escalating level of difficulty It is recommended to begin with the least difficult exercises in Level One and proceed through Level Three to receive the maximum benefit The study aid pages are paginated sequentially The abbreviation SA represents Study Aids followed by the lesson number and then the sequential study aid pagination

A Look Ahead Understanding some of the similarities and differences between the English and Greek alphabets is just the beginning of learning New Testament Greek This NTGreek course will equip anyone to read and understand New Testament Greek (NTGreek) Over one hundred lessons are planned to take you from your first steps in New Testament Greek to a thorough knowledge of the language that will rival any Bible college university or seminary study Lesson One introduced the sight and sounds of the twenty-four Greek alphabetical characters These same characters are further developed in Lesson Two by examining how they sound together in simple vowelmdashconsonant and consonant-vowel combinations so that the student will have confidence they are pronouncing Greek words properly In addition a phonetic pronunciation system is integrated in these lessons by means of MP3 audio files as well as later lessons Several special features to look forward to in all Greek lessons are

1 A large Greek point size is purposefully employed to aid the beginning student Greek words contained within paragraphs are 14 point and the font point size for illustrations is 16 point

2 Many MP3 audio files accompany every lesson If you wish to hear the audio portion of the lesson simply click on the link

3 A study guide is included at the end of every lesson that tests the student over the material studied in the lesson to advance more rapidly the learning curve

4 Many study aids are associated with each lesson These study aids give the student further opportunities to learn more by the added instructional materials exercises and quizzes Answer keys are provided when applicable The study aids are divided into three levels The different levels represent an escalating level of difficulty It is recommended to begin with the least difficult exercises in Level One and proceed through Level Three to receive the maximum benefit The study aid pages are paginated sequentially The abbreviation SA represents Study Aids followed by the lesson number and then the sequential study aid pagination
