http://www.classicalmyth.com/greek/greek.html
My own students and others often ask me about materials available for the study of ancient Greek on the web. There are a lot of difficulties involved in studying Greek, whether in a classroom setting or on one's own. Unfortunately right now the web has not lived up to its potential to ease those difficulties. Nonetheless students now are much better off than they were a decade ago, and one can only imagine (hope?) that within the next few years we will see further progress. Already Unicode promises to ease many of the problems associated with displaying ancient Greek on the web, for example. Here are a few of the things that I myself have prepared for use by students. Below them you will find some selected resources from around the web that I think are particularly appropriate for students just beginning the study of ancient Greek. If you are thinking of trying to learn ancient Greek on your own, you might want to check out my standard response to people who want to learn ancient Greek on their own.

    Ancient Greek
    By the 16th cent. B.C. , Greek-speaking people were established in Greece, probably having come as invaders from the north. In antiquity there were a number of dialects of the Greek language, the most important of which were Aeolic, Arcadian, Attic, Cyprian, Doric, and Ionic. Ancient Greek was prevalent in the Balkan peninsula, the Greek islands, W Asia Minor, S Italy, and Sicily. Because of the political and cultural importance of Athens in the classical period of Greek history, the Athenian dialect, Attic, became dominant. From Attic there developed an idiom called the koin E After Alexander the Great the koin E developed into an international language that remained current in the central and E Mediterranean regions and in parts of Asia Minor and Africa for many centuries. Most of the New Testament was written in the koin E , which helped to gain a wide audience for Christianity. Byzantine Greek, based on the koin

OF THE FUTURE SPACE SOCIETIES
By Michael D. Rellos (Paper to the 5th Congress "COSMIC SPACE AND PHILOSOPHY" in Delphi, Greece, October 22-25, 1993)
The modern world is based on the universality of trade and communications. The usual method of communication, in all times, consists in some human language. There exist more than 2.000 languages in the world. This is a great problem for all humanity and, and as far it concerns History, there are two solutions: Translation and Predominance of only one language. Fortunately, almost every man is able to learn and speak more than one language. In modern countries millions of people study foreign languages and especially those of the most influential states. Political and cultural influence has always been the main causes for the existence of a predominant language. Translation is the necessary procedure for the harmonization of the communication among people of different origins. This has been so for many centuries. Communication problems are always provoked by the need of many people to exchange ideas and specific information for various reasons and about many things. Then, if the means of communication, i.e. the languages, are not compatible and if there exists a luck of knowledge of the "foreign" language, communication becomes uncertain. Especially in now-a-days, the universal trade and the speed of information transfer through satellites, TV stations, radio stations, telephones, the Internet and other sources, magnify the problem of modern Babel...

38. The Greek Language
The first thing to note is the form of the question itself. As has already been indicated ancient greek covers a broad range of language.

The Greek Translation Specialists

Introduction Greek is spoken by the 10 million inhabitants of Greece and some 82% of the population of Cyprus, numbering a further half million. It is also spoken around the world in the diaspora of Greeks who have emigrated for political or, far more commonly, economic reasons to the USA, Australia, Britain and elsewhere. In terms of number of native speakers it ranks well down the list of world languages. However, culturally its importance is disproportionate. As the language of classical Greek philosophy and literature and, later, as the language of the Christian Gospels and the early Church it has profoundly shaped Western thought. Like any other language Greek has evolved over the ages, but Modern Greek can justifiably trace its pedigree back through the Athens of Pericles to the Trojan wars and indeed to some of European man’s first attempts at recording his ideas in writing. This very history has been a deep influence on the way Greeks of today view their language and, incidentally, makes it very difficult to precis the history of Greek in the compass of a short essay such as this. Indeed this is a very personal selection of topics related to Greek, largely chosen as having a bearing on aspects of translation of Modern Greek. It is not intended to be a set of working notes for translators of Greek; that would be a far more ambitious project. It is more a brief historical background and a pot-pourri of aspects of the Greek language which we hope may be of interest to the non specialist who occasionally has to deal with Greek, whether in a translation agency, an in-house translation department or as a business person dealing with Greece. We have tried to ensure our facts are correct but we do admit to being guilty of oversimplification at times - unavoidable when dealing with so complex and diverse a subject in such a short space.
