As Mark Mazower shows us in his enthralling and definitive new account, myths about the Greek War of Independence outpaced the facts from the very beginning, and for good reason. This was an unlikely cause, against long odds, a disorganized collection of Greek patriots up against what was still one of the most storied empires in the world, the Ottomans. The revolutionaries needed all the help they could get.

Introductions
I liked the way it was presented as “run on sentences “ because that is the speed at which Greek is spoken and I need that practice but, the words in the conversation are not as modern as I have heard when I listen to my Greek friends greet each other. Also, it was hard to hear the pronunciation of the words I was unfamiliar with and I found myself wanting to see them written because I know how to pronounce the letters of the Greek alphabet. Just a quick glance at how an unfamiliar word is spelled and would be able to say it correctly. Sometimes iphone speakers aren’t as distinctive as an “in person” conversation when correct pronunciation is vital.
All-in-all this learning experience is proving to be a likable one even though I’m only on the second lesson but, will I be able to print the lessons out in the end?
Thank you, Gail Kosturos

Excellent and very effective introduction.
The slow syllable-by-syllable pronunciation is extremely effective, as is the graded progression and the structure whereby each lesson built on and reinforces previous lessons. What is the best audio tools for learning a new language I have ever used. However, it is audio only and I find it useful to supplement the audio instruction with written exercises, flashcards, etc.

Very instructive but the conversation framing urgently needs modernising!
It was a great way to learn some basic Greek while travelling the country. The extensive pronounciation training often lead to us being confused for Greeks when greeting someone. The repetitional method is very effective and provides you with a solid if not very large vocabulary in the end.
A big minus however is the conversation setting: a US American man (represented by the learner) calling over to an unmarried Greek woman to ask her for directions and then ask if she would like to eat/drink something. Seriously?! It was furthermore assumed that the listener is from the US, which is unnecessary.

Ultra formal
These lessons are good. However, they teach the ultra formal way of speaking with older people in a form of Greek that rarely gets used anymore, especially by younger Greeks. Some of the verbs such as to eat and to drink are different from the verbs used more commonly today

Good, but could be great!
It is good. However, it would be nice if the speaker could state whether (in English) certain words, phrases or syllables are synonymous with the English 'V' or 'th'. E.g is it Amerikaniva or Amerikanitha? It is e-ovos or e-othos? It makes a massive difference! Further, the difference in pronunciation by the female and male speaker sometimes assists one in being able to compare it with a syllable you know, though at other times it is actually the root of the confusion. Lastly, I feel the jump in Chapter 5 was a bit extreme. Notwithstanding the above, I am certain that (I can) and I definitely plan to finish learning Greek (entire series) with Pimsleur!
