@ralia30 im with you on that. There pronunciation is just plan wrong and it sounds like a fat man rolling down a hill...................... just horrible.
I don't understand one thing though, isn't it significantly easier to pronounce the letters as they really are, instead of this anglo-saxon adaptation? For instance :
@VonManavis most people in america have decided to pronounce it like she did in the video though. that's how we've grown up with it, and those of who use it the greek community of fraternities/sororities know it as this, so it's kind of too late to switch pronunciations.
Thanks for the quick and good video. Sorry about there being so many dicks on the net that would give you a ration of crap over it. Sadly, that's just how ssad some people's lives are.
hahahahahahahahaahhhahahahahahahahahahahahahaahhaahhaahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaahahhahahahahahaahahhahahahahaha you need Greek lessons immediately
Anyone notice the Greek alphabet is actually starting to mix into our lives?
Examples: Alpha and Beta from games, theta and omega in math trig, phi as the golden ratio 1.618, pi as pi 3.1416, and Omega in Star Trek or something
because Greek is something like the scientific language.I mean you may check that the vast majority of words in astronomy,medical and other scienses have greek origins like geometry,hipocrisy,mathematics etc.
@CHRISTOKONI You know what I think? We can't use the normal alphabet because people get confused whether it's the symbol or the letter, we didn't want to use words, we are too lazy to make new symbols, so we 'borrow' letters.
To think some day we might need to remember 50 capital letters and 50 small letters...ugh!
Seems like you've just realized that Greek symbols are a part of our lives. Its not something that's "starting", its something that you've just now noticed. They're called Greek symbols because the Greeks invented them, meaning they've been around for a looooooong time. You'll notice how prevelent they are when you get to college.
@drche420 hahaha well the english alphabet a = ei b = vi c = gi d = thi e = e f = ep g = qu would like that? the pronounsation if correct makes less the non vowels and shorts time of letters Delta as D is Ntelta but as Δelta less one N now b =mp not v inenglish gamma g = nnk+ama but Γαμμα whamma D = nt but Δ = th as in the minus n so only in Beta Gamma Delta english put 3 more sounds its like a = nei b = bin c = cik , i spell english alphabet now?
not the prounonciation, but they are the names. and i realized how different the names are read o_o;; greek is really interesting =3=;; now do you know the difference the current greek and the koine greek? i needa use koine greek to read the new testment of the bible ;o
@thorahn96 in my opinion you should learn first the current greek language. Koine is not used now, it is something between modern greek and ancient greek. However, they use koine ("old greek") in the bible, i've never seen a bible in modern greek, they probably want to keep the "tradition".Modern greek are simplier and more easy (but still difficult) than "old greek".It's better to learn modern greek first and then try to learn the bible language, unless you are only interested in the bible
OMG GIVE IT A BREAK ALREADY YALL ACTING LIKE IT HAS TO BE PERFECT NOBODY GIVES A FUCK WHAT THE GREEKS THINK IF YALL SO EAGER TO MAKE US PRONOUNCE IT RITE THEN MAKE A VIDEO OR SHUT THE HELL UP UUUGGGHHHH I CANT STAND WHEN PPL ACT LIKE THAT...MA'AM I THOUGHT THIS WAS VERY INFORMATIVE AND NOW I KNOW THE CORRECT ORDER OF THE LETTERS THANKS ALOT
Wow people calm yourselves. Obviously for a Greek Organization not the real Greek Language. most initiation tests require you to know it and just so you know, this helps me remember it. Thank you VERY much.
The pronunciation is very poor. If you pronounced the letters correctly, this song would be useful, but at this moment it's not adequate. All you need to do is correct the pronunciation of several letters. Good luck!
To the people who are Greek and bashing this: please, leave DCProductions2 alone, no one cares and honestly you sound like jerks who need to feel good about themselves by bringing others down. I'm joining a sorority and need to remember the order of the letters. This song is really helpful for that. If i decide to learn Greek in the future, I'll work on my accent. Now please, shut up.
The people commenting and bitching like "WHY WOULD YOU WANT TO LEARN THE GREEK ALPHABET WHO ARE YOU TRYING TO IMPRESS YOU HAVE IT WRONNGGGGG" have clearly never been exposed to a college or university of any size. It's for greek organizations. Fraternities and sororities.
@lhoffman630 MAYBE it would be a good idea for "greek organizations" in COLLEGES, to actually be able to pronounce properly? lol.. that only shows sucky education to me
@ElizaLazarou I'm not disputing that they should be able to pronounce it; I was only responding to the people saying it was "showing off" by knowing or learning it.
Well I find this video helpful since I'm going into a greek organization. Why don't you all "professionally speaking" Greeks make videos on how to pronounce them or whatever and stop trash talking this one. If you don't have anything nice to say don't say it at all. :-)
@moni7889 Hi, I agree with you at that it doesn't seem apropriate to make corrections, but most of those ppl are doing it 'cos they want to help foreign speakers to learn the letters correctly...
GUYS.. THAT S NOT GREEK!! IF ANYONE WANTS TO LEARN THE GREEK ALPHABET JUST TELL ME AND I WILL TEACH YOU IT.. BUT IT S NOT THE GREEK ALPHABET! GOD.. IT S HUMILIATING!
i dont see what was "wrong" about it.....why would you leave a bad comment saying the video was wrong when you were the one who looked it up in the first place.....
@traceable97love thats because you are a complete idiot, watching a video doesn´t mean you have to like it, especially when it is horrificaly pathetic
Hey man, i am a greek... Thats a bullshit!!!!!!!!! They taught you wrong.. And, no offence, but whats the point of learning the greek alphabet.. Who do you want to impress?
@2strange1 This really has nothing to do with learning the real greek alphabet.. it's for people people joining Greek Orginazations at universities (fraternities and sororities) Doubt she's trying to impress anyone.. All of us in the greek society had to leearn it..
Most of the letters in this picture have wrong pronunciation!!! This is the true: alfa vita wh-amma the-lta ep-see-lon zita ita th-ita yota kappa lam-tha me nee xee omicron pee ro see-wh-ma taf ip-see-lon fee he psee ome-wh-a
I love the fact that you did this video for those who are just trying to know the Greek alphabet!!...(AND NOT TO LEARN THE LANGUAGE FOR THOSE WHO ARE HARASSING THEM!) I just want to know for my own pleasure...this was very helpful, no matter if it was said wrong or not! Thank You for the video!
i like it... i know its not meant to learn how 2 speak the language. it is for people who need to know the greek alphabet for a sorority of fraternity. they will not care how it sounds because half of them cant say it right either stop gettin so damn defensive
Sucks for you...you actually think you know greek! I'm a Greek that moved to america 8 months ago...this is not even close to how we say the letters...I laugh at this way...this is how people should learn it in science class, not if you want to speak the language I'm far deeper into the language since i even know some ancient Greek and well might i say that this is the English version of the letters? Just type in the description that it is for science class only, not linguistics, rated "like"!
@kkonstantinosss2 : this was not meant to be used as a way to learn the Greek language, but as a guide for members in the Greek organizations. If it's pronounced the English version, so be it.
@kkonstantinosss2: Also, I would like to remind you that different language sound differently around the world. I'm sure in Greece you did not pronounce the English alphabet 100% the same way as the Queen's English nor as the American-English. Hell, in fact, there is a difference between how to pronounce the letter "z" in America and the rest of the world.
@tiffelau168 Haha, I suck at English pronunciation! I moved in Florida like 8 months ago... In grammar I'm better than almost everyone in my school and my PLAN test said that I am above college even though I'm in 10th grade, but if i speak people rarely understand what I'm talking about
The names in GREEK are not that way....Y that is the capital for one similar to u but is pronounced like /i:/ like trEE.
Read them as if they were english and you'll get the real name in GREEK:
alpha, veeta, gamma, delta, eepsilon, zeeta, eeta, theeta, yohta, kappa, lamda, mee, nee, ksee, ohmeecron, pee, roh, seegma, tough, eepsilon, phee, ghee (like the consonant sound in "ugh!" plus an "ee"; this sound does not exist in english but is the one in roJo for spanish), psee and finally omehga.
This was sooooo helpful i have a test in 20 mins and this saved my life!!!!! you rock my socks!!, and as far as it correlating to the actual greek language, noone really gives a fraction of a crap, if you speak greek then have fun speaking it, us normal folks will pronounce it wrong and still have fun.
This is the way we pronounce them in my science and math classes when using them as symbols in equations. My professors would give me funny looks if I said "Vee-ta", "Yamma", "Thelta", "Mee", "Nee", etc. I like this video.
Its not the fact that the is "saying it without a greek accent" She's just saying the letters completely wrong. idk who taught everyone this aphabet bc it isnt greek and i hate when people say it like this. IT MAKES IT SEEM LIKE OUR TEN YEARS OF GREEK SCHOOL IS A WASTE!
@greekkoukla7 I know what you mean...This is the reconstructed ancient greek pronunciation...in the end, whatever works for you....Modern pronunciation is completely different
@greekkoukla7 καλα ηρεμησε νομιζεις οτι ειναι ευκολο για τους ξενους να διαβασουν τα γραμματα μας? δεν μιλανε "καθαρα" οπως εμεις. Πρεπει ομως να εισαι περηφανη για τον πολιτισμο σου που τοσοι πολλοι ασχολουνται με την ιστορια μας και την γλωσσα μας οπως αυτος που ποσταρε το βιντεο
hes posting it to help people learn the letters you stupid peice of shit. i just joined a fraternity and to get in you have to recite the letters and write them in greek
This is not how the Greek alphabet is pronounsed, SORY! Who told you that this is the right way? I am GREEK you know!, I KNOW BETTER! And you also souldn't call me names!!
....who cares if its greek pronounciation? greek letters are pronounced differently in america and they use them in fraternities. people dont care about learning how to speak greek!!!
If you learn to speak Hellenic(Greek) u can find the most well paid jod Especially in Europe... Greek is a language that trains your mind and make you Intelligent ... and help your breathing system.... thats an official survey from Chambridge University!!! Greek are not only Elite ... everybody who is interested can Learn it!!
@secondlife2 i agree. ignorance is happiness. but it would be better if this video it wasn't connected with a country's alphabet at all i suppose. Just say that's the allaboornezeeka's alphabet for example and everyone would be happy.
first go learn your own alfabet or learn the greek one in a good way with a greek accent i can speak greek as greek people do and english as english with an english accent you english people always turn everythink into english
IF YOU WANT TO LEARN GREEK DO IT AS GREEK PEOPLE DO
youre a friggen idiot. this is not speaking greek, this is learning the alphabet for greek life organizations. they clearly have no intentions of learning greek. stop using youtube to try and brag about yourself knowing another language.
@flaggmcnasty s0.. this is NOT the greek alphabet for greek life organizations... this a brand new alphabet created just for names. Honestly it has no connection with the modern or the ancient greek accent.
It haven't any interest at all, but for anyone who would like to see the correct accent this here's a link watch?v=GNbkI2kb1NE
@flaggmcnasty I dont think she meant it that way!!! Get off her back!!! But you may be right about one thing, it is for someone like me who is interested in knowing the alphabet so i can be apart of a Greek organization! So yes it is! Leave her alone please and let her be with her video, other people like it!
this is University stuff??? this is not Greek! I mean the letters seen are indeed Greek but the pronounciation is not! Most of the letters' names are wrong! For instance, it's not "EYE-OH-TAH" it is "YOH-TAH"! It's not "MEW" and "NEW" it's "MEE" and "NEE"! it's funny though
ok seriously this is for University greek organizations... as in sororities and fraternities.... who cares if she sounds greek?! this is basically the song we learned in new member meetings... lay off!
I'm not concerned with accent. This video is for those entering Greek organizations who need to learn the alphabet. Their future brothers and sisters will not care about pronunciation.
What pisses me off about that explanation is that this alphabet means nothing aside from the ability to read random letters poorly. This is the alphabet through which all European ways of writing were based off of. Latin, the language we call the root of all, is of a Greek derivative. It may be called the "Greek" life, but there is nothing Greek about it. Kirie eleison imas!
ALPHA, BETA, GAMMA... rays DELTA, EPSILON, hey hey hey! ZETA, ETA, THETA, IOTA Then theres KAPPA and LAMBDA MU and NU and XI (x-i) OMICRON and then theres PI RHO and SIGMA and TAU, too UPSILON, it starts with U PHI and CHI and PSI are fun OMEGA and then youre done Learn all that and then youre set Thats the whole Greek alphabet
Im not greek at all im american and I can already tell this is soo wrong, the girl has a hardcore American accent! and in english the e in Beta sounds like ay. classic english mispronunciation.. I cant even hear the whole video its terrible! (I will learn Greek in the future)
@ralia30 im with you on that. There pronunciation is just plan wrong and it sounds like a fat man rolling down a hill...................... just horrible.

@tiffelau168 Haha, I suck at English pronunciation! I moved in Florida like 8 months ago... In grammar I'm better than almost everyone in my school and my PLAN test said that I am above college even though I'm in 10th grade, but if i speak people rarely understand what I'm talking about

The names in GREEK are not that way....Y that is the capital for one similar to u but is pronounced like /i:/ like trEE.
Read them as if they were english and you'll get the real name in GREEK:
alpha, veeta, gamma, delta, eepsilon, zeeta, eeta, theeta, yohta, kappa, lamda, mee, nee, ksee, ohmeecron, pee, roh, seegma, tough, eepsilon, phee, ghee (like the consonant sound in "ugh!" plus an "ee"; this sound does not exist in english but is the one in roJo for spanish), psee and finally omehga.

This was sooooo helpful i have a test in 20 mins and this saved my life!!!!! you rock my socks!!, and as far as it correlating to the actual greek language, noone really gives a fraction of a crap, if you speak greek then have fun speaking it, us normal folks will pronounce it wrong and still have fun.

This is the way we pronounce them in my science and math classes when using them as symbols in equations. My professors would give me funny looks if I said "Vee-ta", "Yamma", "Thelta", "Mee", "Nee", etc. I like this video.

@secondlife2 i agree. ignorance is happiness. but it would be better if this video it wasn't connected with a country's alphabet at all i suppose. Just say that's the allaboornezeeka's alphabet for example and everyone would be happy.

youre a friggen idiot. this is not speaking greek, this is learning the alphabet for greek life organizations. they clearly have no intentions of learning greek. stop using youtube to try and brag about yourself knowing another language.
flaggmcnasty 2 years ago 32
@flaggmcnasty s0.. this is NOT the greek alphabet for greek life organizations... this a brand new alphabet created just for names. Honestly it has no connection with the modern or the ancient greek accent.
It haven't any interest at all, but for anyone who would like to see the correct accent this here's a link watch?v=GNbkI2kb1NE

@flaggmcnasty I dont think she meant it that way!!! Get off her back!!! But you may be right about one thing, it is for someone like me who is interested in knowing the alphabet so i can be apart of a Greek organization! So yes it is! Leave her alone please and let her be with her video, other people like it!

this is University stuff??? this is not Greek! I mean the letters seen are indeed Greek but the pronounciation is not! Most of the letters' names are wrong! For instance, it's not "EYE-OH-TAH" it is "YOH-TAH"! It's not "MEW" and "NEW" it's "MEE" and "NEE"! it's funny though

I'm not concerned with accent. This video is for those entering Greek organizations who need to learn the alphabet. Their future brothers and sisters will not care about pronunciation.
DCProductions2 2 years ago 18
@DCProductions2
What pisses me off about that explanation is that this alphabet means nothing aside from the ability to read random letters poorly. This is the alphabet through which all European ways of writing were based off of. Latin, the language we call the root of all, is of a Greek derivative. It may be called the "Greek" life, but there is nothing Greek about it. Kirie eleison imas!
