Seeing the world in Greek

How can I best learn new vocabulary items? What aids are there and what pitfalls should be avoided? How does a beginner learn to use a lexicon?

I realise this is so not a New Testament topic, but without them we wouldn't be on B-Greek. They figure so prominently in everyday life.

Here are a few videos that I've created for educational and non-comercial purposes, under section VB of the fair dealing provisions of the Australian Commonwealth Copyright Act 1968. These videos may contain copyright material. Any further reproduction or communication of this material by you may be the subject of copyright protection under the Act.

[Some of the videos are are of such minimal quality, that they could be thought of as just scratch ups requiring a serious effort at some future time. That is especially true of the sound quality. My friend's computer that I can use to make these is in a noisy office.]

Some outdoor things and weather:
