Talk:Greek language

for future: pronunciation, different styles of writing

Hello. I see this article is underway. Maybe this suggestion that I make will not be very useful at the moment, since other issues have priority. Certain Greek alphabet letters do not really have a Latin corresponding letter as far as pronunciation concerns. For instance, the letter "gamma" ("γ", "γάμμα") is not pronounced with a "heavy" "g" in Greek language, but rather with a soft "y", see here; which my point is that you cannot really explain it unless you see and hear somebody speaking it out. I have collected a category of videos serving that purpose, plus to show how different writing styles of Greek alphabet letter appear (some are more "calligraphic" than the standard printing letters). Here is the category. Hopefully in the future it will proven useful, even for obscure issues as such. What is your opinion?

Thank you, best regards,

O.t. - interested in anything about Cyprus (and language, of course)
