Welcome to the list, Selina!

If you're just starting out with Greek, one resource you may want to look
into is the Little Greek 101 site that I'm working on:

	http://sunsite.unc.edu/koine/greek/lessons

I'm self-taught too, and so are some of the others. I've also put together
a page with tips for learning New Testament Greek, which you can find here:

	http://sunsite.unc.edu/koine/

The Summer Institute of Linguistics is an organization that knows a lot
about translation. You can find them at:

	http://www.sil.org

Pick up their Greek fonts while you're at it, they can be downloaded for free.

Hope this helps!

Jonathan
