  • 2.01 | The influence of Greek

    We are finally back with our podcast!

    For the past few months, we have tried to find ways to make this experience even more student-friendly for all of you guys!

    we created

    ~ a website! Yes, that’s right! A brand new website where you can listen to the entire first season and all the new episodes we will release.

    www.unlockinggreekpotential.com

    ~ a transcript! Now, you can find all the valuable vocabulary with its translation, lesson notes, and grammar inside, all in one place!

    Having said all of these, let's move on to today's episode:

    • πεινάω
    • διψάω
    • ζεσταίνομαι 
    • κρυώνω
