So today I'm going to read for you the Greek alphabet. Το Ελληνικό Αλφάβητο. I'm going to
show you the capital letter, the small letter, I'm going to read its name and finally the sound.
So this is alpha alpha and it sounds like ah. This is Vita Vita and it sounds like v. This
is yhamma yhamma and it sounds like gh. This is thelta thelta and it sounds like th. This
is epsilon epsilon and it sounds like eh. This is zeetah zeetah and it sounds like zzz. This
is eehtah eehtah and it sounds like ee. This is theta theta and it sounds like th.This is
yotah yotah and it sounds like ee. This is kappah kappah and it sounds like k. This is lamtha lamtha
and it sounds like l. This is me me and it sounds like mm. This is neeh neeh and it sounds like n.
This is xhi xhi and it sounds like xx. This is omicron omicron and it sounds like oh. This is
Pee Pee and it sounds like puh. This is roh roh it sounds like rr. This is siyma siyma and it
sounds like ss. This is taf taf and it sounds like tt. This is eepsilon eepsilon and it sounds like
ee. This is fee fee and it sounds like ff. This is hee hee and it sounds like hhh. This is psee
psee and it sounds like pss. This is o omeyah omeyah and it sounds like oh. So you might have
noticed we have two letters that sounds like oh in Greek, omeya and omikron. And we have three ees,
one is eepsilon, one is yiottah and one is eetah. Also in this letter, we have the small siymah that
you can find in the beginning or in the middle of a word and this you will only see in the end.
Now let me read for you the words that start with its letter in alphabetical order. Anna,
varkah, yahtta, thoroh, eyoh, zoe, eelios, thalassa, istos. You see that ss in the end is
different. Kalos, Layhoss, mama, neroh, xylo, olos, payhos, Roloee, seecko, tora, eepnos,
fotiah, heena, psarry, orrah. You may have also noticed a small dot. This is a stressing mark.
You will always see stressing marks on words if they have two syllables or more, and this is
where you will be stressing the word. This is why I said pahyos and not pahyos. So it seems
like we have missed out some sounds but in Greek there are some double letters that covers that,
vowels and consonants. So let's have a look at the vowels first Alpha yota, that's the name of
the double vowel, sounds like eh. Omicron Yotah sounds like ee. Eepsilon Yotah sounds like ee,
Although this combination is not very common anymore. Epsilon Yotah sounds like ee. Omicron
eepsilon sounds like ooh. Alpha Eepsilon sounds like af or av. Epsilon eepsilon sounds like
ef or ev. So now let's read the words. Emma, eekoyenia, eeos, eemeh, uranos, aftee, avyoh,
efkolo, evah. Now let's see the double consonants. Me Pee this is the name of the double consonant
and it sounds like buh. Knee Taff sounds like duh. Yhamma Kappa sounds like gh. Yhamma Yhamma
sounds like gh as well. Taf Siyma sounds like ch. Taf Zita sounds like J. So now let's read the
words Bah bass, dino, ahgeerah, eh goni, chepee, jaaki. And now you can read anything in Greek!
