How to Write the Greek Alphabet | Super Easy Greek 33 

Τι ωραίο είναι το ελληνικό αλφάβητο!

I'm just about to start my Greek classes in just a few days, so this is super helpful for me 😍😍 thank you!

Υπέροχα! Ευχαριστώ πολύ! I like Greek letters and we are used to write most of them since school times. Not because we studied Greek, but math, phisics, chemistry, ecc.

Thanks a lot! Can you do a video on how to write in cursive Greek? I.e., how to write connected letters. I've always wanted to learn such a script.

Some of the Armenian letters (the first seven, Թ, Փ, and probably others) are descended from Greek letters as they were handwritten around the year 400.

Thank you lots, Dimitris! I was looking for a video explaining how to write in greek, and here Easy Greek is to the rescue!

Greek is so beautiful 💕💕

SO helpful

Hi, Dimitris. Great video! Could you make a video on Greek Interjections?

Literally the only reason I’m watching this is because I’m scared of getting cancelled by Greece (yes, the country of Greece itself) for writing their letters wrong in my math homework. Thanks so much Dimitris!

First i read Sos in the title that’s definitely what I feel during learning greek xddd

Honestly, i have no idea why i´m learning the Greek alphabet if i´m learning Arabic, but i don´t hate it

Ωραία μουσική και μου αρέσει και η γραφή σου! Ευχαριστώ πολύ, Δημήτρης!

ευχαριστω πολυ ! I've never actually tried to learn to write the letters, always copied the keybord ones aha, but now I know how to write them thanks to you !

Το να γράψω με το χέρι στα ελληνικά είναι σαν διαλογισμός για μένα. Μου αρέσει να αντιγράψω κείμενα από το ελληνικό μου βιβλίο. Επίσης σχεδόν ποτέ δεν θυμάμαι νέες λέξεις που δεν έχω διάβασει ακόμα.

Thank you so so much for this video Dimitris !! I find your video really helpful and the best in youtube 💪 . I must say I love you as a teacher , you're always very kind and in youtube I learn Greek only from Easy Greek ! ❤️

thanks a lot Dimitris for this very important video!!

Thank you very much. You have lots of useful videos already. This one would be better by pen on paper though. I will watch more videos before I comment again. And I will like all of them. Thanks again. Special thanks to Marilou.

Thanks a lot!

I remember learning Greek at university 20 years ago, but the old Greek. Alphabet stays the same I think. And I'D LIKE TO KNOW IF there is or not a cursive type for handwriting, as in the Latin or the Cyrillic alphabets (for both the capital letters and their corresponding lowercase letters). THANK YOU!! PD: I never stop from getting surprised/admired about the similarity between Greek phonetic and the Spanish one, which is my native language.

Μπράβο! Ευχαριστούμε! Εγώ τα γράφω λίγο αλλιώς)

Can you make an interview video asking Greeks on their current opinion on the EU and a Grexit. I am unable to find current opinions on this. Ευχαριστώ

S'euxaristó!

LONG COMMENT WARNING (συγγνώμη!) I think it would have been even better if you could have shown the different ways some of the letters would be written, like β (with the tail) δ (with a flat horizontal line on top) θ (ϑ) κ (as a "u" and that's why learners should be careful when writing upsilon and not add a tail on the side! Though I liked your ϰ which learners often confuse for χ!) λ (with the left leg below the line) π (as ϖ) τ (like an iota but with a curl backwards at the top and then one forward at the bottom) χ (with one line curved, the other straight) and ψ (like an English cursive "y"). Then there's Ϗ which some people use for και (I think it's a Greek ampersand [&]) and ȣ for ου which I've seen on some signs - especially small street signs. Aaaaaaannnnd finally, some people seem to join στ together so it looks like οι with a line on top... and a few other letters are often just joined by one line. I think αι is often joined, no? I personally always join από slightly. Then again, it would have made the video A LOT longer, so I understand!

Nice! Merci!

This was awesome! What equipment / software did you use for this?

it would be great to have transcription of the lessons in order to import them in Lingq

Εγώ τι τα βλέπω αυτά που είμαι Ελληνίδα και τα ελληνικά μου είναι μια χαρά;;; 😂

One more question (months later!). I didn't see you give an alternative for ψ written like English lower case script "y". I have seen this elsewhere do you find it uncommon, outdated or just ugly? Thanks as always.

Πολύ ενδιαφέρον βίντεο! Ι was surprised to see alpha just like the English a, I do it like a gamma on it's side, (so it looks like a fish swimming to the left) as that's how we were taught in biology lessons at school, also I do beta like a mini capital like the printed version, Is that a normal variant or a bit odd in Greece?

For me is ok to write little lamda like the Russian l (both big & little same) Or like you wrote in the end allas 😳 litterally did not expect

Hi, my background is in ancient Greek, so my capital omega would be the one you say you would never use. Do you know when the "modern" way was introduced?

Do you usually join omicron and ypsilon ου in hand writing? Or does joining them make the omicron look like a sigma?

I had to fix my λ's too, I think it came from the habit of writing ㅅ in Korean.

μπορώ να γράφω το "θ" έτσι: ϑ ;

can you write uppercase Omega like a "W"?

I noticed that in the text at the end, the double λ of αλλά you wrote just as vertical lines, like a roman 'l'. Is this a common thing?

When kids learn to write in school, is there a preference to writing the accent immediately over the letter, or adding it after fi ish ing writing the whole word? I guess it is not important but I was just wondering what the "official" way is

Thank you very much! 😃👍☺️ I've been looking for a nice video showing Greek calligraphy, but they always show only the "school" way, which may seem pretty, but I think it's so impractical... it seems too slow for me, you couldn't take notes writing that way. Also, your personal style looks fine to me. I'm Spanish and started to learn Greek a few months ago, and yet I'm able to read what you wrote in the video easily. I've been wondering if there is a cursive style in Greek similar to that used with the Latin alphabet, with ligatures and without lifting the pen, because it enables a faster and smoother writing, so I liked a lot the moments where you said you don't like to lift the pen to write a single letter, but still there is no connection between letters. Is there any style which uses such connections? Again, thanks a lot for this video, I really enjoyed it. Nice job! Bye!

"left handed people are smarter than the right handed people." Is that a fact?

You must be the only one not writing the little θ as a reversed β!

So is Dimitris single? :D

WTF you can actually write in mathematical symbols, equations and formulas? 🤣
