Learn Greek, for travel to Greece or Cyprus, on a Greek airline, when visiting a Greek restaurant, or for fun

Greek Language

  For travellers, you can use the phrasebook in Wikivoyage. Pick your country, in this case Greek, or several countries if you have a multi-destination holiday. You get a long list of handy phrases. Print off the entire list of phrases, or those you are most likely to need. Print in a convenient size, large enough to read, small enough to be lightweight, to go in your pocket. If it gets lost in a wad of papers, print a Greek flag and attach it to the front as a cover, or just to the top left or right corner of the first page.

Wikipedia makes everything comoplicated and I have to look up technical terms. Simple Wiki is useful. 

So is Wikimedia Commons, for pictures.

Double-sided Greek card

OOOZU - Compact, Pocket Size

You can get a small card from Ooozu.com to carry around and consult. It is laminated. Language only, not the alphabet.

Duolingo 

I am using Duolingo to learn twelve languages including Spanish, Japanese, Greek, Swedish, Esperanto and other lanaguages. Duolingo has a lot of repetition to help you remember.

LILT Polyglot Club

I run an online polyglot languages group with my good friend Carolyn Street, who used to teach French and German at a Polytechnic in Singapore. You can attend  this clubon Zoom every Sunday, 9.30 pm Singapore time on Carolyn's Zooom. Send her your name, your full name, so she recognizes you and can admit you to the meeting. 

You can contact her or me by direct message on Facebook and on the Lilt page. (Earlier version were WILL but that got confused with [ages on writing a will so we changed it to LILT.

We are probably doing a reprise of Japanese at the future meeting on Sunday 25th February 2024 if requested. This week is Greek. To attend 1-to 3 meetings is free. We hope that if you become a rgular supporter you will want to join Toastmasters and pay the 60 dollars fee for 6 months access to the TI website, pathrway programme innluding videos on public speaking and managing meetings, the online magazine, and opportunities to take attend and take part in speaking contests. These two online clubs can be contacted via Advancity in Singapore which is in Toastmasters International Find a club. Advancity also meets in person in Singapore.

SGI Dynamic Toastmasters International Club

I often do a rehearsal on Friday at SGI Dynamic. The club started in the evening in Singapore but moved to later in the evening so that members and visitors from the USA could join. The timing is early morning in the USA and Central and South America. Lunchtime in London, after lunch in France and Europe, evening in Singapore, which is the same time as Japan and China.
