It should then be possible to reproduce the audio side of this for several different pronunciation schemes/periods? What kind of Greek does LGPSI teach? In particular, teaching the alphabet through aural/visual repetition of characters, using minimal pairs and working up to words. I have in mind to produce a ‘chapter zero’ resource that should orient total ab initio beginners. Secondly, what about the alphabet? What if I don’t know the Greek alphabet? If you know the Latin, you should be able to understand how the Greek parallels that. Firstly, chapter 1 follows LLPSI capitulum primum quite closely. For this reason, I have in mind a couple of features. Unlike LLPSI where it really is possible to open up the first page, provided you know the Roman alphabet, LGPSI is not *quite* so adaptable. But my commitment is that LGPSI should be both open in the sense of ‘free to collaborate and improve’, but also ‘free to use without cost’. There may come a stage where some instantiation of LGPSI costs money (e.g., a print version). LGPSI is an open-access resource and you can freely access it and put it to use basically however you see fit. These two versions are updated slightly less often, so corrections take longer to appear here. This page lets you read the text in a html format, or access a script-generated pdf. This page lets you access the raw source files, and if you’re familiar with github, you can create issues/submit feedback directly: I’ll be holding the current version in stasis for the present, but looking to replace it with the revised version over the coming months. I am currently working actively on the main text of LGPSI, giving a thorough revision to chapters 1-19, before progressing onwards. The chapters are designed to become increasingly more complex in style, vocabulary, and grammar.

This material is being primarily authored by myself. The core text: The core text is main material of continuous Greek text which follows, at its centre, the story of a family in Antioch in the 4th century A.D., and those they met along the way. The project consists of several elements: And, to some extent is designed to be a Greek edition of that, though with important differences. It takes its name from the famous Lingua Latina per se Illustrata of Hans Ørberg. LGPSI, also known as Lingua Graeca Per Se Illustrata, and by its Greek name ἡ ἑλληνικὴ γλῶσσα καθ’ αὑτὴν φωτιζομένη, is an expansive writing project aimed at producing a new type of Greek reading text built for learners of ancient Greek.
