Course Content (Syllabus)
The aim of this course is the synchronic and diachronic description of Modern Greek. At the diachronic level, we examine the formation of Modern Greek at the phonological, morphological, syntactic and lexical level. Some fundamental questions are the following: In which way did the phonological system of Ancient Greek developed into the one of Modern Greek? In which way did the declension and the conjugation of Ancient Greek evolve into the declension and the conjugation of Modern Greek? What changes have occurred at the syntactic level? How was the Modern Greek vocabulary formed? and so on. We also discuss the way the Modern Greek dialects have developed their basic characteristics.
At the synchronic level we examine key aspects of the Greek grammatical system, such as the phonological system, with special focus on the coexistence of the 'non-demotic/logio' and the 'demotic' sub-system, the examination of nominal declensions and verbal conjugations with emphasis on verb aspect, the investigation of compound formation, etc. This synchronic and the diachronic view on grammar aims at assisting the students to understanding and applying the main tools and methods of teaching grammar to native speakers and learners of Greek.
