Hello everyone ❤️ This is Athina from the video. I hope everyone enjoyed this video and learned something new.I would like to clarify that I used the "modern" day pronunciation of ancient Greek meaning the pronunciation that we are being taught in schools today in the ancient Greek subject. That being said we are not using the Erasmian pronunciation that many people may know:). I hope I did well on the video. A big big thank you to Bahador for giving me the opportunity to experience this beautiful process and a big thanks to Nikos and Stavros.
Xoxoxo❤️

My wife is iranian. As a greek, I find greek people having many common traits with iranian people as inheritants of ancient civilizations. Odyssey and Iliad and works by Kazantzakis are well known and easy to be found in bookshops and street book vendors. In iran there is the konkur exam which is the university entrance exam like panellinies in greece where ancient greek is one of the subjects given for people who want to pursue studies such as law, litterature, philosophy and other so called classical studies.
The unbreakable continuation from ancient to modern greek in terms of preserving the alphabet and the vocabulary over thousands of years is quite unique. A very large number of international scientific terms in virtually all disciplines have greek origin.

6:22 They are both right. Apparently Nicomachus is the name of both the father of Aristotle and his son.

Contrary to what many people think, "Ancient Greek" is not a dead language. Language is a living entity and it changes and evolves over the course of time, and this is precisely the case with the Greek language. Ancient Greek with its different dialects evolved to Koine Greek which eventually evolved into medieval Greek or Byzantine Greek, which ultimately developed into what we know today as modern Greek. Hope you enjoy this one and if you want to participate in future video please contact me on Instagram.
