I have incorporated the vocabulary from lesson 21 into the online lexicon. Now I’m on to the topical index.
Lesson 21: More on the Aorist Middle and Passive
I have added lesson 21 (Aorist Middle/Passive) to the online grammar. Because I am working late at night—rushing to get it up and running before I go back to work tomorrow—I’m sure there will be a few typographical errors that I will need to correct over the next few days. Still, I thought it would be best to get the text “out there” so you can have a look at it and give my any feedback you would like.
As I have done with other lessons recently, I have uploaded it without the automated practice exercises. I will get to those soon (I hope!).
Progress on Lesson 21 (Aorist Middle/Passive)
I spent some very good time this morning at a coffee shop working on lesson 21. I’m writing the Reading and Translation section now. I’m working against the clock since I have to go back to work on Monday, and I’ll be out of town a good part of the weekend. As soon as I finish the lesson I’ll post a notice here.
Topical Index and the Middle Voice
I’ve added appropriate categories to the Topical Index for my grammar to cover the issues introduced in Lesson 20: The Middle Voice.
Additions to the Lexicon
I’ve added the vocabulary from lesson 20 to the online lexicon. I’ll work on the topical index tomorrow.
Lesson 20: The Middle Voice, The Aorist Middle
Well… After a very long wait, I’ve finally uploaded my lesson on the Aorist Middle. As I have done with a few other lessons, I’ve uploaded it without the automated practice exercises. I hope to finish those over the next few days. For now, I’d love to have your reaction to the discussion and the particular examples I’ve chosen.
Feel free to criticize, suggest revisions, etc.
Case Attraction in Ancient Greek
Have any of you read Scott Grimm’s 2007 article, “Case Attraction in Ancient Greek”? (Lecture Notes in Computer Science, 2007, Volume 4363/2007, 139-153.)
The abstract looks very interesting. You can purchase online access for $25, but I’m not sure what a hard copy costs.
Greek-Language.com homepage
I’ve updated the homepage of Greek-Language.com to reflect the new location of the blog and give it a more attractive feel. I also made a few alterations to a number of other pages (general housekeeping issues that I do from time to time to update information).
I hope you like the new look.
Home.
Back to Greek tomorrow
I spent the day today in a training seminar on teaching English to speakers of other languages. I’ll be back to working on Greek tomorrow.
I spent Monday working on the next lesson for the online grammar, dealing with the middle voice. I hope to finish it in the next few days.
New Home for this Blog
Welcome to the new home of the Greek Language and Linguistics Blog. On Saturday, September 25, 2010 I began migrating the blog to its new home at Greek-Language.com. Until now it had been hosted at WordPress.com. I will keep it active there until I can assure that the traffic currently going there has made its way to the new location.
If you have linked to the blog at WordPress, please update your links to http://greek-language.com/grklinguist.
I hope you enjoy the new look, and I look forward to integrating the blog more fully with the other resources available here at Greek-Language.com.
