Hi

Post by Daniel Semler »

Χαῖρε,

τὸ ονομὰ μοὺ Δανιελ Σεμλερ (that's pretty much a straight translit. looks weird :) ) ἐστίν.
τὸ γραφεὶν ἐν τῳ Ἐλληνικῇ τὴν κεφαλὴν βλάπτει αλλὰ θέλω.
Ἒξ ἒτη μανθάνω τὴν γλῶσσὰν τὴν κοινὴν. καὶ νῦν ὀ καιρὸς εις το γραφειν ἐστίν.

Alright that hurt. Feel free to correct as required.

If it wasn't obvious by now, I'm self-taught from books, videos and such.
I am just a someone studying more or less by himself trying to learn a bit of Biblical Greek and Hebrew.
I have an interest in linguistics - reading Hallidayan SFG at present.
I use the reconstructed pronunciation (as described by Randall Buth) by preference rather than Erasmian.
My background and day job are in software. I've done a few small things with Greek/Hebrew in software but I need to get back to that ...

Anyhow, Χαῖρε πᾶς ὀ ἀναγινώσκων ταύτην ἀγγελίαν.

Thx

Χαῖρε καλῶς, Δανιήλ. Ἔχομεν δὴ τὸν ὧδε τόπον ἵνα Ἑλληνιστὶ (τὴν Κοινὴν Διάλεκτον) γράφῃς ὅ τὸ γραφὼν Ἑλληνιστί καλεῖται. πορευθεὶς δὲ ἐκεῖ γράφειν ἄρχου καὶ δὲ βλέπε ὅ σύμβῃ.
