I for one would be really very grateful if those who post to b-greek would
please kindly follow the transliteration conventions with which we are all
provided when we join up. I look at all posts to the list, and I can read
the transliterations quite well. But I cannot cope with the above at all.
"feromenoi elalhsan" I can handle, but what is "anyrwpou hnecyh" or "all
upo pneumatov"? Perhaps the first two are ALL' hUPO? But what exactly is
"pneumatov"?
Fair go! We have been given guidelines, so that we can speak to each other
and be understood. Let's follow them. Please.
