Who this course is for:
- If you have ever wanted to learn how to pronounce Biblical Greek, or one day want to learn it, you are in the right place!
What you’ll learn:
- The Greek alphabet and how to pronounce each letter

- Why we use modern Greek pronunciation when learning Biblical Greek
Requirements:
- There are no course requirements or prerequisites. Everyone is welcome!
This course teaches you how to pronounce Biblical Greek. It is designed for beginners as well as those who previously learned Greek pronunciation but need a refresher (or learned the so-called Erasmian Pronunciation). We will use Modern Greek Pronunciation to learn how to pronounce Biblical (or Koine) Greek. Modern Greek Pronunciation is the pronunciation closest to how the authors of the Greek New Testament spoke.
As a result, by the time you finish this course, you will be able to say any word in Greek, whether in the Greek Bible (Old or New Testament), and you will also be able to say any word in Modern Greek. In this way, if you choose to travel to Greece one day, you will have learned the way locals say and pronounce Greek, which is closer to how the authors of the New Testament would have spoken Greek than the way it is often taught in seminaries and colleges.
This class is completely digital, meaning you can watch the lessons on your phone and do the assignments whenever you want. And rather than weighing you down with academic jargon, our lessons are short, practical, encouraging, and clear.
By the time you finish all these lessons and exercises, you will be perfectly prepared to read and pronounce any word you encounter in Greek.
Our Promise to You
By the end of this course, you will have learned how to pronounce Biblical Greek.
