The study of classical languages by earlier generations of
English-speaking students was greatly facilitated by the
traditional study of English grammar in the schools emphasising
precisely the grammatical concepts, terms, and constructions needed
for the study of Greek and Latin. While recent textbooks presume
little or no previous grammatical sophistication on the part of
their students, they often provide little more by way of
remediation than definitions of grammatical terminology. This book
offers a student-friendly comparative exposition of English and
ancient Greek grammatical principles -- from the most basic to the
most complex, first in English, then in Greek -- that will prove a
useful supplement to a wide range of beginning Greek textbooks as
well as a handy reference for those continuing on to upper-level
courses.
