“It is especially simple to acquire if one has already learned about grammar in any well-structured language, and more so if one has learned the Greek alphabet.”
I grew up speaking Greek, Demotic. I went to “Greek School” in elementary school and learned to read and write katherevusa. In the altar we boys learned Byzantine Greek. Ancient and koine Greek came in high school and college. It’s a lovely language. When I speak or read it, quite literally my world view, my “phronema” changes. For that reason alone a Christian should make every effort to learn Greek.
That's the lind of "expert" worthy of envy. I know so little of the Koine, but even that brings a great joy that it is the language of the Holy Spirit. It also helps me to appreciate my own tongue, which still employs so much of it. Latin just does not give me a thrill. My Mounce textbook urges the student to just read the Greek through often, pronouncing it correctly whether knowing all the words or not, insisting that we will never master the Greek unless we can read it. I know that in Heaven I will be learning it and Hebrew, for that is the form of His Word that He holds above His Name. I guess, at 78, I'm just trying to learn early and anticipate the tongues of angels.
In your FR username, the accemt is on the second "ko"?
