Subject Description

In this subject, which is a continuation of BA-1 Beginners' Modern Greek 1, students learn to handle common interpersonal transactions in Greek with confidence, and to understand and produce (in speech and writing) simple descriptions, narrations and expressions of attitudes and opinions.

The emphasis continues to be on practice at listening, reading, speaking and writing Greek in everyday situations, but students are also introduced to the structure of the language.
