Learn the Biblical Greek Alphabet in 12 Minutes

The modern Greek alphabet has twenty-four letters. It contained more at one point, but several characters lost favor, and usage of them stopped before the Classical Period (around the 5th and 4th centuries BC).

It is essential that you learn the Greek alphabet as a first step in studying the Greek language. You cannot learn anything else until you do.

It’s easiest to learn the alphabet by pronouncing the letters out loud as you write them, over and over.

Thank you. I am taking a physics class and my professor keeps giving us new Greek letters so I figured I would just get the whole alphabet memorized so I can have one less thing to be confused about.

Thank you very much! I'm 16 years old and have a keen interest in Greek mythology and history. Your assistance is greatly appreciated and will certainly aid me in fulfilling my dream of reading the myths in their original classical Greek language.

To anyone interested out there .
The video is supposed to be about the Biblical Greek, so basically modern Greek. Basically after the Koine Greek there weren't many alterations concerning the pronantiation and the vocabulary . Most of the changes after that period were grammatically based .

Unfortunately as a native Greek speaker i found quite a few errors with the pronantiation provided .

Have a look around in the web to get a wider perspective about how the letters are pronounced .

Happy learning

The actual Greek pronunciation of these letters is very different from the English versions that you give here.

I can Congratulate you on bringing about The GREEK ALPHABET, HOWEVER THE PRONOUNCING IS A LITTLE OUT, but I take off my hat for Bringing about The Greek Alphabet into the public;

[PHAESTOS]

From the beginning to the end, the whole video is a hybris to the Hellenic language.Friendly greetings from the evershine Hellas (Greece to ya all) and Hellenic language the MOTHER OF ALL LANGUAGES....and that's an undeniable fact.

Excellent! Although I think the Greek alphabet is pronounced mostly as Spanish. I always get Spaniard and Greek tourists confused
