Paperback / softback

Description

Greek Today presents an up-to-date communicative approach for students of Modern Greek.

Aimed at the introductory to intermediate levels, it is a completely revised and expanded edition of the popular Demotic Greek I.

Presenting material that relates to a wide range of cultural interests, the textbook offers twelve lessons with a total of sixty grammar points, all conveyed through dialogues that present the realities experienced by young people and adults in contemporary Greece.

Lessons are supplemented by songs, poems, realia, images, and cultural texts.

A large number of cartoons by Greece's eminent artist Kostas Mitropoulos provide a running commentary on modern Greek culture and its relation to Europe and the ancient Greek past.

Employing a vocabulary of more than 2,000 words and introducing students to the most current Greek idioms, Greek Today also includes etymological notes on the evolution of the Greek language and the Greek roots of many English words.
