Laura,

I am glad you've raised this issue.  I've studied Classical Greek with the Open University in the U.K. for two years.   I now hope to 'convert' what knowledge I have [little enough!] into learning Koine Greek.  I'd be grateful for a summary of what the main differences are.  

I'm hoping the verb system might be rather easier!    When I began my studies I was puzzled why there was no equivalent in Greek of the 'Book of 500 Latin Verbs' and similar books in other languages.    I know fully understand why not!!  Marinone is helpful but incomplete.  This is not a criticism, rather a comment on the complexity of the Classical Greek verb system.
