Excerpt: The Greek alphabet is the script that has been used to write the Greek language since the 8th century BC. It was derived from the earlier Phoenician alphabet, and was in turn the ancestor of numerous other European and Middle Eastern scripts, including Cyrillic and Latin. Apart from its use in writing the Greek language, both in its ancient and its modern forms, the Greek alphabet today also serves as a source of technical symbols and labels in many domains of mathematics, science and other fields. In its classical and modern form, the alphabet has 24 letters, ordered from alpha to omega. Like Latin and Cyrillic, Greek originally had only a single form of each letter; it developed the letter case distinction between upper-case and lower-case forms in parallel with Latin during the modern era. Sound values and conventional transcriptions for some of the letters differ between Ancient Greek and Modern Greek usage, owing to phonological changes in the language. In traditional ("polytonic") Greek orthography, vowel letters can be combined with several diacritics, including accent marks, so-called "breathing" marks, and the iota subscript. In common present-day usage for Modern Greek since the 1980s, this system has been simplified to a so-called "monotonic" convention. Both in Ancient and Modern Greek, the letters of the Greek alphabet have fairly stable and consistent symbol-to-sound mappings, making pronunciation of...

Download or read book Greek Alphabet Primer written by Mallory Stripling and published by . This book was released on 2019-07-18 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Greek Alphabet Primer is designed to introduce children ages 7-11 to the letters of the Greek alphabet. It teaches the Modern pronunciation that is used by the Orthodox Church, but the vocabulary words used for examples are taken from Biblical and liturgical Greek. The goal is to prepare children and families to learn to understand Greek as it is read and sung in Orthodox church services. But since Greeks pronounce Ancient, Biblical, and Medieval texts in the same way that they speak their own modern tongue, families will be able to use these resources to how to pronounce Modern Greek as well.Each of the 24 letter "chapters" contains: - a short introduction to the pronunciation and writing of the letter- an illustration of the shape of the uppercase letter with a pictureof a word beginning with that letter- a story of a saint whose name begins with the letter- an icon coloring page of that saint- a copywork page containing the name of the letter, the wordillustrating the letter, and the name of the saint

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The birth of the Greek alphabet marked a new horizon in the history of writing, as the vowelless Phoenician alphabet was borrowed and adapted to write vowels as well as consonants. Rather than creating a single unchanging new tradition, however, its earliest attestations show a very great degree of diversity, as areas of the Greek-speaking world established their own regional variants. This volume asks how, when, where, by whom and for what purposes Greek alphabetic writing developed. Anne Jeffery's Local Scripts of Archaic Greece (1961), re-issued with a valuable supplement in 1990, was an epoch-making contribution to the study of these issues. But much important new evidence has emerged even since 1987, and debate has continued energetically about all the central issues raised by Jeffery's book: the date at which the Phoenician script was taken over and adapted to write vowels with separate signs; the priority of Phrygia or Greece in that process; the question whether the adaptation happened once, and the resulting alphabet then spread outwards, or whether similar adaptations occurred independently in several paces; if the adaptation was a single event, the region where it occurred, and the explanation for the many divergences in local script; what the scripts tell us about the regional divisions of archaic Greece. There has also been a flourishing debate about the development and functions of literacy in archaic Greece. The contributors to this volume bring a range of perspectives to bear in revisiting Jeffery's legacy, including chapters which extend the scope beyond Jeffery, by considering the fortunes of the Greek alphabet in Etruria, in southern Italy, and on coins.
