So the pronunciation of the AI model kinda hurts, but this is a genius way to use AI to memorize vocab.

A greek phrase that is still just as useful as when Cassius Dio wrote it:

Just released a recording of @jeltzz.bsky.social's LGPSI chapter 2, this time with a restored Koine pronunciation.

I'm planning to keep going.

Question: Better to keep this on the Greeking Out podcast or put them elsewhere? Or Both?

In writing Ōsweald Bera, I had to make some decisions that not everyone will agree with

Trade-offs had to be made between:
- story
- grammatical simplicity
- vocabulary load
- idiomatic use of the language

I explain my point of view on Substack:

I was watching a video on Latin. The speaker said it was good to learn because it was stable and no one was adding words like "skibbidy Ohio toilet Riz". I thought I know just the people who could do such a thing.

So how would we say that in Latin/AG?

It seems like there's so many decent novellas and learner texts for Latin (public domain no less). I just wish we had as much for Ancient Greek.
