Drills and Exercises<br />

1) Selected Pronunciation Drills: In the following exercise, the syllables bear no necessary resemblance to any particular <strong>Greek</strong> syllable or word, but are designed to<br />

isolate particular sounds to help us gain condence quickly. Begin working horizontally, and notice that all syllables on the horizontal row should rhyme. After you gain<br />

comfort working horizontally, move to the greater challenge of working vertically with the shifting vowels. [We are using non-technical English representations, and have<br />

marked with an asterisk certain English syllables that should not be pronounced like the real English words they spell. Keep the horizontal rows rhyming, and all will be<br />

well!]<br />
