[et_pb_section admin_label=”section”] [et_pb_row admin_label=”row”] [et_pb_column type=”4_4″][et_pb_text admin_label=”Text”]Here you will find a number of resources for learning Greek via the natural method, based upon a famous story written in 1909 by W.H.D. Rouse of the Perse Grammar school in Cambridge.

Here is a link to a free PDF of the text so that you may download it and follow along while you listen to the audio which we have provided. You can also purchase a nice print edition edited by Anne Mahoney here. And here is a link to Rouse himself reading some Greek.

There is also a Greek to Greek vocabulary here: Rouse, A Greek Boy at Home, vocabulary. This defines the words without using a second language, the best method for acquiring Greek vocabulary without the interference of one’s native tongue.
