This comment caught my attention. Do you really think
"a year" of Attic is sufficient? I've taken almost a
year of Attic and feel very inadequate in my grasp of
even the basics of Attic. (Although, as Mitch just
pointed out, I've not taken Attic with a
teacher....rather, I'm learning it on my own.)
And if I may follow up with another question; what
benefit accrues if I take 2 years of Attic as far as
my understanding of the GNT?
