Learn Ancient Greek: 8_Unit 2 Greek Verbal System

Leonard Muellner (Professor Emeritus of Classical Studies at Brandeis University) and Belisi Gillespie present all the content covered in two semesters of a college-level Introduction to Ancient Greek course. The structure of the Greek verbal system presented here varies slightly from the manner in which the authors lay out the material in the Hansen & Quinn textbook, but the main themes discussed in the video roughly correspond to the information presented in Unit 2, especially pages 39-45. Professor Muellner explains the concepts behind Voice, Aspect, Mood, Tense, Person, and Number as they apply to verbs; he also provides a brief preview about participles and infinitive verbs.
