    Right now as Tan is working on the course. I am working on a book called, "Teach Yourself Ancient Greek", by Gavin Betts and Alan Henry. It is helpful, but I need a real person to ask questions of. It took me two days to translate the first sentence in the first lesson,

    I never have gotten it right even with dictionaries and Greek grammers. I can understand what it means just not how it means that ( if you know what I mean ).

    It says,

    Odessyus has departed from Troy, but Posiedon his ship at Scheria shall destroy.

    Right? Well. I made it rhyme anyway.
