Thanks for sharing your family and this wonderful video. By the way, in Chinese 家, the word for house, is also the same as the word for family. I wonder how many languages are like this?
Very interesting and useful video! Thank you for your work! :). I have one question if it possible to ask you: what word the ancient Greeks used for "grandmother "? Thank you! :)
Hey there! Sorry if it's a bit unrelated, but I figured if there's a good person to ask this, it would be you Luke. I've recently come across an issue in my Latin course. You see, up until now I've had no problem learning new inflections and types and the syntax because I love learning languages and especially Ancient Greek and Latin. So, once I learnt new features, I'd immediately do many excercises from my school book and also read the texts a couple of times. But while the perfect stems of 1st, 2nd and 4th group verbs are generally regular, having either a v or an u after the main verb stem (or in some cases of the second group, an s, but I guess I'll memorize those with time), the 3rd group is completely daunting! There are others like lego who make their final vowel long, lēgi, others who make the world initial vowel long, like ago which becomes ēgi, then dico which becomes dixi, adding an s, and finally ones that redouble the initial syllable, like curro which becomes cucurri. Maybe my grammar book doesn't explain this well, but it just says they're all one of these and it's irregular. I don't like unexplained and generalized irregularities. If there's some small tip or at least has an explanation of how that came to be or some patter on which of these to expect, I'd be really happy if you tell me. Thanks!
I was always taught to pronounce /g/ in Ancient Greek as a velar stop, you pronounce it as a glottal fricative, which I've heard described as a change that occurred during byzantine period, similarly to b -> v ... other than that, which may be a confusion on my part, your Greek sounds lovely!
Hi, thanks for the comment. Actually that change occurred very early in some parts of the Greek speaking world, which is why it’s in this pronunciation system that I developed to correspond to early Roman Empire. See more here: ua-cam.com/video/5lcIcYFveII/v-deo.html
At 12:24 I think you should have used the dual number with the noun τέκνον and it should have been "δύοιν τέκνοιν" But why use the dual number when you do not use a classical ancient Greek accent? (but a rather later Koine Greek accent which did not use the dual number anymore). I so like your videos, though! They put a nice voice/sound to my school year books!!!
They really could. Being an experienced polyglot, I don’t find Duolingo to be at all useful. If people enjoy, that’s great. But unless they are able to compensate me, I won’t have time to help them, I fear.
I first read the description and expected the Homer of Illias yhad to laugh so hard as he turned out yellow 😂😂😂 Brilliant video with your lovely family 😍 Then 'gonads' refer to parents! And is there a similar sounding word in any other language for 'teknon'? 🤔
I see here that sometimes you put the genetive possesive words before and sometimes after the noun that is possessing them. Are both of these equally common?
Great question! The form ὁ τοῦ Ῥωβέρτου υἱός is more common, or at least more Attic in style. But both are possible. They are called bound and unbound forms. Essentially they're all equivalent, but can emphasize more the possessor or the thing possessed.
Is δυοιν τεκνων proper, or should it be δυων τεκνων or δυοιν τεκνοιν? Euclid wrote δυσιν ορθιαις ισαι εισιν. Ο Βαρθολομαιος και η Πρισκιλλα αστρονομοι ησαν και γονεις μιας θυγατρος και ενος υιου.
The dual forms are used with non-dual forms rather a lot in Attic, and naturally δύο is inherently dual, unlike in Latin, so the regularized δυῶν form absolutely exists, but also δυοῖν. Here is an example of Plato mixing δυοῖν...ποδῶν stephanus.tlg.uci.edu/Iris/demo/browser.jsp#doc=tlg&aid=0059&wid=024&st=31861&et=31868&hl=%7B%22hl%22%3A%5B%7B%22start%22%3A31861%2C%22end%22%3A31868%2C%22color%22%3A%22HI1%22%2C%22backToStartSnippet%22%3Afalse%2C%22forwardToEndSnippet%22%3Afalse%2C%22outOfSnippet%22%3Afalse%7D%5D%7D&type=browser
@@ScorpioMartianus interesting. As a speaker of modern Greek, we use γάτα for "cat", which comes from Latin "catus" I believe. But we call felines "αιλουροειδή". The scientific name for "cat" in Greek is "γαλή". Any idea where that comes from?
Definitely not! 😃 As it is permitted to use modern punctuation in Latin and Ancient Greek, it is also permitted to use modern technology such as Arabic numerals. While Arabic numerals are universally understood in all languages, just as most forms of punctuation are, Roman and Greek numerals are much more obscure, and thus should be used sparingly until the student is very confident with basics of the language. This is at least my pedagogical view. LLPSI takes the same tactic.
I'm maybe wrong but I think there's a mistake at 4:29 because the complement of έστιν shouldn't have an article. Actually you used one in every sentence but it sounds weird, I wouldn't have put one.
@@LukeRanieri Yes I know in that way it would have been weird but it's just that grammatically I felt it better without an article, I don't why actually
@@WillelmusAestus Don't rely only on what you hear, but put time into reading studies and researches by scientists. Sidney Allen's Vox Graeca and Horrocks' Greek deal a fair amount with the pronunciation. Οὐ may have been /o:/, but that was before the Classical Period. Languages naturally change, not only in Grammar, Vocabulary and Syntax, but also in Pronunciation (cf. The Great Vowel Shift of English). Even in Modern Greek we've observed such a change in ντ, μπ, γκ and γγ (from /nd/, /mb/, /ng/ to /d/, /b/, /g/), even though most native speakers aren't even aware of it. I'm sorry if you perceive me as harsh, as English isn't my mother language; I never meant anything like that. I just want to tell you that οὐ naturally changed from /o:/ (before Classic) to /u:/ (Classic and Early Koine) to /u/ (Late Koine and therefore). It isn't a debate about which pronunciation is "correct" in a certain time period, it's about the evolution of pronunciation through time.

Οἱ παῖδες ἀποικοῦσιν ἐκ τῆς γῆς εἰς τὸν Ἄρη ἀστέρα, ἐπεὶ μάλα γε φοβοῦνται τὴν κορωνὴν τυραννίδα.
Ἠ μήτηρ μου Σεσήλια ἑστίν. Ὀ πατήρ μου Κάρλος ἑστίν. Ὀ πατήρ καὶ ἠ μήτηρ μοὺ εἱσι γονεῖς μιᾶς θυγατέρος. Τίς ἑστιν ἠ τοῦ Κάρλου καὶ τῆς Σεσήλιας θυγάτηρ; Βιβιανή ἑστιν, ἠ τοῦ Φιλίππου ἁδελφή. Ὀ Φίλιππος τίς ἑστιν; Φίλιππος εἱμι ἑγώ. Ἠ μὲν αδελφή μου ἑστι μία, οἰ δὲ αδελφοί μου εἱσι πολλοί! Τέσσαρες εἱσιν οἰ αδελφοί μου· ὀ Κάρλος Ἐρρίκος καὶ ὀ Ὀρλάνδος καὶ ὀ Ἑρνανδὀς καὶ ὀ Ἑρατός. Τίνων ἑστὶν ὀ Φίλιππος υἰός; Ὀ Φίλιππος ἑστιν ὀ τοῦ Κάρλου καὶ τῆς Σεσήλιας υἰός! Ιδού ἠ οἱκία μου!
hey luke, where do we put tin, ton in greek. What is the meaning of that?
I don't understand the question
@@ScorpioMartianus like τιν, τον
I don’t understand
@@ScorpioMartianus I mean the *the* sound in greek
Ah. Those are modern Greek words. So it wouldn’t apply here
Ἆρα Ῥεβέκκᾱ τὼ βελοσφενδόνᾱ ἐν ἀμφοῖν τοῖν χεροῖν ἔχει; Ἦ αὐτῇ μεγάλη βελοσφενδόνη ἐστίν, ἣν ἔλαβε παρὰ τοῦ δεσπότου; Τί δ᾽ αὐτῇ καὶ τῇ δικαιοσύνῃ ἐστίν; Μόνον γὰρ αἰσθάνεσθαί σου βούλεται.
Δύο ἐμοὶ παῖδέ ἐστον, οἷν ὁ μὲν Κάστωρ, ὁ δὲ Πολυδεύκης καλεῖται.
Οι, just like ει ,is pronounced ι, not Ο-Ι. So, you must say "Η οικία μου" as in "Ikia"
No. You are describing the pronunciation of Modern Greek. Ancient Greek is pronounced very differently ua-cam.com/video/Dt9z5Gvp3MM/v-deo.html
17:38 heh missed opportunity to use Greek numerals?
Ἔνιοι μόνοι ἂν νοοῖεν. Καὶ ἐφ’ ᾦ τὸ βίδεο τοῖς μὴ λαλοῦσι σκοπεῖ, οὐ δεῖ αὐτοὺς δυσχεραίνειν.
Definitely not! 😃 As it is permitted to use modern punctuation in Latin and Ancient Greek, it is also permitted to use modern technology such as Arabic numerals. While Arabic numerals are universally understood in all languages, just as most forms of punctuation are, Roman and Greek numerals are much more obscure, and thus should be used sparingly until the student is very confident with basics of the language. This is at least my pedagogical view. LLPSI takes the same tactic.
I'm maybe wrong but I think there's a mistake at 4:29 because the complement of έστιν shouldn't have an article. Actually you used one in every sentence but it sounds weird, I wouldn't have put one.
I don’t understand. How would you have said it?
Edit:
Ah, but she is *the* daughter (the only daughter), not one daughter of many.
Ὡς ἀληθῶς ἕτερον ἑκάτερον. Ἕτερον ἂν σημαίνοι τὸ ἄνευ ἄρθρου ἢ τὸ μετ’ ἄρθρου. Διὸ κᾦδε τὸ μετ’ ἄρθρου ἀρμόζειν, ἐμοὶ δοκεῖ.
@@Michail_Chatziasemidis Νυν μανθανω, ευχαριστώ !
@@LukeRanieri Yes I know in that way it would have been weird but it's just that grammatically I felt it better without an article, I don't why actually
I thought "ou" was pronounced "oh"
ου has a pronunciation like /o:/ in the archaic period, but by late Classical times it was /u:/ for most speakers.
@@ScorpioMartianus Oh, didn't know it. Thanks. I suppose it's like the Ecclesiastical-Classical debate for Latin
@@WillelmusAestus It isn't even a debate in Greek, though. It's fair acknowledgement that languages change diachronically.
@@Michail_Chatziasemidis But... I heard people pronounce it as "oh" in Ancient Greek.
@@WillelmusAestus Don't rely only on what you hear, but put time into reading studies and researches by scientists. Sidney Allen's Vox Graeca and Horrocks' Greek deal a fair amount with the pronunciation. Οὐ may have been /o:/, but that was before the Classical Period. Languages naturally change, not only in Grammar, Vocabulary and Syntax, but also in Pronunciation (cf. The Great Vowel Shift of English). Even in Modern Greek we've observed such a change in ντ, μπ, γκ and γγ (from /nd/, /mb/, /ng/ to /d/, /b/, /g/), even though most native speakers aren't even aware of it.
I'm sorry if you perceive me as harsh, as English isn't my mother language; I never meant anything like that. I just want to tell you that οὐ naturally changed from /o:/ (before Classic) to /u:/ (Classic and Early Koine) to /u/ (Late Koine and therefore). It isn't a debate about which pronunciation is "correct" in a certain time period, it's about the evolution of pronunciation through time.
