One of the best things about learning the Greek language is that words are pronounced the way they are written. There are no silent 'e' type letters. If a letter is in the word, it is pronounced. And letters are always pronounced the same way, with the exception of a few diphthongs.

The Greek alphabet has been used to write the Greek language since the late ninth or early eighth century BC. It is derived from the earlier Phoenician alphabet, and was the first alphabetic script to have distinct letters for vowels as well as consonants. Once you know the alphabet, your travels will be as easy as A-B-C. In fact, the phrase 'From Alpha to Omega' or 'beginning to end' comes from the Greek alphabet which starts with the letter alpha and ends with Omega, making these two perhaps the best-known letters and a good place to start learning.

The Greek alphabet has 24 letters, some of them representing sounds that are not part of the English language. To create sounds not included in the alphabet, two letters are combined. For example:

• the hard d sound is made using 'nt,'
• the b sound is created by putting together 'm' and 'p,'
• the j sound is created with a combination of 't' and 'z,' which doesn't quite match but comes close, and the same goes for the hard ch sound, which is written using 'ts' - except in Crete where, in the local dialect, the letter k is often given the hard ch sound,
• the hard g sound (as in 'gutter') is made with 'gk.'

The Greek language does not have an sh or soft ch sound, and while they can be pronounced properly, they're written using the letter 's.'

Note: This is not a formal language lesson, just a quick pronunciation guide.
