The topic of the lessons is perfect when preparing for a trip to Greece (The topic of all lessons: “Greek for tourists and travelers”).
- No, I will never learn this language! – I thought, the first time I heard fast, full of energy and expression Greek speech. And she refuted herself after 6 months, speaking Greek the way others speak after 2-3 years of intensive study. Did I have a special technique? It seemed to me then that I did not follow any methodology at all, but today, 20 years later, I still admit that if you collect the scattered pieces of the puzzle, you can create a methodology from them, the copyrights of which belong to Life. So, for students Greek to note:
Thanks to word recordings and conversation texts, you know the true sound of the language. Dialogues can be read and printed in Portuguese and Greek. In addition, we offer several training methods.

➡ Principle one: first learn to speak, and then write. Of course, we are not talking about not writing at all, but about the alphabet and spelling of the language being studied. I wrote down Greek words by ear in Russian letters in a notebook, which was with me everywhere and always, and in the evening I read my own dictionary. Later I began to write down entire expressions, mainly questions and answer options. The first principle flows smoothly into

Do you believe that you can not know the name of a fork and a spoon, but be able to read a history textbook? Believe. It's rare, but true story a girl I know who moved to Greece and entered the lyceum. Spoon and fork can be learned in the school cafeteria, but “the Renaissance” and the “Greek liberation movement” are unlikely.

➡ Principle three: elimination of the “extra link”. Typically, learning vocabulary is a chain of three links: a word - a translation into Russian - an image. When we read the word “νερό” (water), our imagination pictures either a glass of water, or water flowing from a tap, or a river or other body of water - this is the image. It is enough to read the translation once, then this is an extra link, i.e. the word in Russian must be excluded from the chain. As a result, we get “νερό” = image (a glass of water, for example). In this way, we avoid the main obstacle to rapid mastery of vocabulary - involuntary translation into Russian. This is how they teach foreign languages children who cannot yet read native language- word and picture. And the results are impressive.

For quick repetition, the program offers a "lightning repeat" function. . You learn new words and repeat old words: using the long-term learning method as already described.
➡ Fourth: sl listen, listen, listen. Pronunciation, melody, intonation, stress... Listen and repeat as close to the original as possible. In Greek, all unstressed vowels are read exactly the same as stressed vowels. When I hear our compatriots say "AND fharisto p A whether" instead of " E fharisto p Oli" (thank you very much), I understand that they could not hear it anywhere. This was read, and read “in the Russian way,” where the unstressed O is pronounced like A. You can listen not only to educational audio materials, but also to songs, Greek radio, and even better, live speech.

➡ Principle five: I'm Greek! Getting into the role is half the battle done. What in common parlance we call manner, in our case, manner of speaking, is not only making sounds. Gestures, facial expressions, the same melody of speech... What kind of Greeks are they? Lively, emotional, maybe even unrestrained, by our standards. And all this is reflected in speech. You cannot, if I may say so, mumble, swallow sounds, lower the tone at the end of a word or sentence, and chew on endings. Speech is richer, more energetic, sounds are clear, speech organs are under greater tension. And, of course, indescribable gestures! It’s worth a look here – it’s a treasure trove of useful information!

Repeat the words until you know them all. Easy words are usually eliminated from the program after 2 or 3 repetitions. Difficult words, whose mistakes are frequent, are constantly asked. We want you to remember them the next day! Effectively learn 7 words at a time.
➡ Principle six: Talk, talk, talk. With mistakes, incorrectly, stumbling, helping oneself with gestures. You will be understood and appreciated for your work, rest assured. Don't wait until you are confident that you know everything and say it correctly. The Greeks are a small nation and any attempt by foreigners to communicate in Greek is received very warmly by them. Ask for your mistakes to be corrected so you don't have to remember incorrect forms. If you have Greek friends, try to exclude an intermediary language, such as English.
Therefore, you can repeat them immediately. Plus, you can't cheat: only your actual study time is shown. The words you immediately know are from that day's test. Words you don't yet know appear again. Pause after 30 minutes: Research shows that after half an hour of studying, your concentration and efficiency begin to wane.
