The Greek LanguageGreek ("Hellenic") is one of the earliest attested Indo-European languages (with fragmentary records in Mycenaean dating back to the 15th or 14th century BC), spoken today by 15-22 million people, mainly in Greece and Cyprus but also by minority and emigrant communities in numerous other countries. Greek has been written in the Greek alphabet since the 9th century BC in Greece (before that in Linear B), and the 4th century BC in Cyprus (before that in Cypriot syllabary). Greek literature has a continuous history of nearly three thousand years.

What satisfied customers say about the Pimsleur GREEK audios:
Great start to learn to speak Greek!
These audios are a great start to learning modern Greek. I thought I was hopeless! This is really helpful if you are planning to travel to Greece, but you will definitely need other books/tapes if you are trying to learn more than just how to ask directions, ask for something to drink, etc. One negative that a native speaker pointed out to me is that you only learn the "formal" version of a lot of things (I'm only half-way through though, so maybe they teach informal tenses later). Overall a great experience as long as you make sure to do it frequently and repeat lessons to make sure you know everything before you move on. Definitely worth the price and you can rip them onto your MP3 player so it's more convenient! -- Gyro Maniac, North Carolina, USA
A Good Foundation.
I spent about three months listening to the CDs in my car during the commute home from work. I was impressed at how the course would subtly teach Greek grammar. When I demonstrated what I had learned to Greek speakers, they were very impressed by my pronunciation. I found some of the conversations to be rather humorous too. I went to Greece after completing the course and I found that I could pick out bits and pieces of what people were saying. I was able to tell a Greek woman what the time was after she asked me the time in Greek and was able to ask for the bill and understood the waitress when she told me "11 euros". I stayed with a Greek family and they seemed to like it when I would throw in a Greek word or two. Prior to listening to the audios, I had absolutely no exposure to the Greek language. After doing 16 lessons you probably will not be proficient in Greek but it is a very good foundation to build upon. -- Mario Martinez. Perth, Australia
