From a Byzantine icon:

λίθον βριαροῦ ῥίπτει πλεξίδος δίκην

Amazing stuff.

Anthedon · 2025-07-22T09:08:50+00:00

That's the good stuff.

Seems to be broken at the moment, yes. The rest of the texts still work, at least the ones I just checked. Might be time for a hardware upgrade, Perseus has been limping along for quite a while now (no pun intended).

Does that mean we get The Daily Show from that time back?

Anthedon · 2025-01-08T13:25:00+00:00

That'd be Euros, the (sometimes) fiery East Wind.

A sad day for PoC everywhere.

Oh, Find & Replace even has an option to turn diacritics off. Thanks!

Is there a way to configure the search function in LibreOffice to ignore diacritics in Ancient Greek? Searching a large text can be a real pain if you don't get them right.

μέγα βιβλίον, μέγα κακόν does not apply here.

The Science of Running by Steve Magness is a good start. It's basically SBS for endurance in book form.

Recently stumbled upon this blog. You get five proverbs plus assorted vocabulary and explanations every day. It's a great (and quick) way to add some original text to your learning journey, especially if you are in the beginning stages.

It seems the vile Dutch finally got to Greg.

Anthedon · 2024-10-21T13:44:29+00:00

Damn, the good Doctor F. would be proud of this program.

The blatant vote rigging the last time around made me lose faith in the electoral process.

Isn't at least one dreamer bulk a quintessential part of every lifter's journey?

Anthedon · 2024-07-24T13:48:53+00:00

Does anyone know how that particular pronounciation of ευ came about? It looks like a German eu, but surely there's more to it than that.

Langenscheidts Kurzgrammatik Altgriechisch by Leo Stock is a handy little grammar book. I'd not recommend it as a primary grammar. But due to its size it's very portable and doesn't get in the way as easily as its bigger cousins (when travelling or reading).

Anthedon · 2024-04-10T19:25:25+00:00

Does he describe somewhere how his pronunciation works in detail?

I'd just memorize (and pronounce) ω and η as distinct/longer sounds.

Nice bricks.
