Title: Sing and Learn New Testament Greek: The Easiest Way to Learn Greek Grammar

Author: Kenneth Berding

Narrator: Kenneth Berding

Format: Unabridged

Length: 00:12:39

Language: English

Release date: 04-22-08

Publisher: Zondervan Publishing Company

Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Biblical Studies

Summary:

A new addition to the Zondervan line of biblical Greek resources. This resource includes everything a professor or a student will need.Sing and Learn New Testament Greek provides a way for learning (and remembering!) New Testament Greek grammar forms through simple songs. It is not designed to compete with existing Greek grammar books, but to serve as a required supplemental resource for elementary Greek classes. Indeed, it has been designed to be used alongside of any introductory grammar. A professor can simply assign to his or her students any (or some) of the songs for the paradigms a particular elementary grammar employs. In this way, students will actually remember what they have learned. (As we are all aware, people do not easily forget something learned via song.)The entire project includes songs for indicative verb endings, participles, infinitives, imperatives, contract forms, and prepositions, among others. All but the last song can be sung in 15 seconds or less. Parsing is enormously easier through this method. And it is a lot more fun than traditional methods. (Are we allowed to even use the word fun in reference to elementary Greek? Absolutely!) Beginning Greek students can listen to the download as they drive to and from school or work, or put it on their iPod. These songs are so simple that students who have used them complain about waking up in the middle of the night with the songs running through their heads. Youll never hear that complaint from students who have had to use rote memory to learn grammar forms.
