The
GREEK Language:
Greek
is the official language of Greece and one of the official languages
of Cyprus. Today Modern Greek is spoken by about 12 million peopel,
chiefly in Greece and the Greek islands (about 10 million speakers),
Turkey (600,000), Cyprus (550,000), and the United States (390,000).
The Greek language has not changed much in its history. The differences
are largely in pronunciation and vocabulary, but they also include
divergences in grammar. Modern Greek, for example, has absorbed
a number of loan words from Turkish and Italian, although its vocabulary
is essentially that of Ancient Greek. Greek is the language of one
of the major civilizations of the world and of one of the greatest
literatures of all time. Many modern scientific and technical words
in English and the other Western languages are derived from Greek,
and it has been estimated that 12% of the English vocabulary is
of Greek origin. |

The
Pimsleur Method:
With
Pimsleur language courses, you will quickly learn to speak Greek
and understand it as well. You're not just learning "phrases"
with the Pimsleur method, you're acquiring essential, conversational
language skills! You'll be thrilled to discover you can hold real
conversations in your new language when you have finished the course.
Dr. Pimsleur devoted his life to language
teaching and was one of the world’s leading experts in applied
linguistics. After years of research and development, including
field studies of spoken language training with adults, Dr. Pimsleur
created a new method for self–instruction in spoken languages
that is based on the way the human brain takes in language as speech.
Of the several unique features of the Method, two key principles:
the Principle of Anticipation
and a scientific principle of memory that he called Graduated
Interval Recall This is the only language teaching program which
incorporates these essential principles to provide you with the
most easy–to–do, amazingly rapid, and highly cost–effective
learning method available.
