Spoken Ancient Greek - The Companion's Companion

Lesson One - Part One (Greek)

Listen Later

This week, Matthew and Luke dive into Lesson 1, conducting the entire episode in spoken Ancient Greek. They guide listeners through a narrative dialogue involving introductions and identity, featuring characters named Jacob, David, Mary, and a teacher named Mark. Matthew reads the text and asks Luke comprehension questions to enforce listening skills and vocabulary retention.

Topics discussed:

  1. Basic greetings (Χαῖρε) and self-identifications (Ἐγώ εἰμι).
  2. The meeting of Jacob (Ἰάκωβος) and David (Δαυίδ).
  3. Mary's (Μαρία) arrival and her recognition of David but not Jacob.
  4. The entrance of Mark (Μᾶρκος), who identifies himself as the teacher (διδάσκαλος), and the group's reaction.
