Traditional Greek grammars are based on the philological method
that assumes meaning resides in single words and that learning a
language consists of memorising vocabulary and nominal and verbal
paradigms. The linguistic method, developed during the twentieth
century, argues that meaning resides in units of speech, like
sentences, not in single words, and that what is needed to learn a
language is familiarity with its basic sentence patterns (its
syntax), not memorisation of vocabulary lists. Originally published
in three volumes in 1973, Robert Funk's classic
Beginning-Intermediate Grammar of Hellenistic Greek utilises the
insights of modern linguistics in its presentation of the basic
features of ancient Greek grammar. Since modern linguistics aims to
be descriptive, rather than prescriptive, Funk's Grammar highlights
the bread-and-butter features of New Testament Greek, rather than
how it deviates from classical Greek. Now redesigned and
reformatted for ease of use, this single-volume third edition makes
Funk's ground-breaking work available once more. Students who use
this Grammar will learn how to read Greek in one year, rather than
having to depend on ponies or interlinear editions of the Greek New
Testament.
