What is the course about?
This course aims to give students the opportunity to consolidate their knowledge of the basic Greek, and to express themselves using simple phrases and survival language.
Perfect for learners who have completed the first part of the beginners’ course and are ready to build on their skills. We’ll explore everyday topics such as daily routines (η καθημερινή ρουτίνα), weather (ο καιρός), and transport (συγκοινωνίες). You’ll learn to describe your day with phrases like Ξυπνάω στις επτά (I wake up at seven), talk about the weather using Έχει συννεφιά σήμερα (It’s cloudy today), and navigate transport with questions like Πού είναι η στάση του λεωφορείου; (Where is the bus stop?). Through interactive lessons and cultural insights, you’ll gain the confidence to use Greek in real-life situations.
What will we cover?
Topics: Time, means of transport, daily routines & hobbies, weather.
Grammar: Continue learning the Greek alphabet, active verbs in present, nouns in nominative and accusative (singular), personal, pronouns, possessive pronouns.
