I read recently about a strategy to learn Greek that uses the sentence as basis for learning languages rather than individual words. It requires one to memorize sections of text, and then start substituting words with others of a different tense or case. Once these become familiar, do some more substituting, etc.
Does anyone have any experience with this?
Do you think that it would be worth the effort or would my time be better spend going through lessons as they are presented in grammars?
