After watching this several times, I understand every word except at 2:40 where he seems to be saying νυν εν τωι πληθοντικωι. "Now, in a crowd?" What

is Rico saying here?

[poliskoine]

In fact, what is said there is "nun en tôi plêthuntikôi": "now [say it] in plural".

I liked very much this video. This how Greek has to be taught!

[Markos33AD]

@TonyLoco23 The students are not Greek, but are from Spain, France, America...all over the world. The teacher is a Frenchman who lives in Israel. The class is taught in Italy.

I WANT TO LEARN THIS LANGUAGE!!!

Ημείς οι ενθουσιαστικοί μαθηταί της αρχαίας Ελληνικής γλώσσης λαλούμεν αληθώς την κάλλιστην γλώσσαν από πάντων των λαών εν αυτώ τω πλανήτη αυτοστιγμεί μένοντων. Δια τούτο οφείλομεν δια παντός υπεφήφανοι σφόδρα είναι! Ζήτω η ένδοξη Ελλάς και η δε γλώσσα μεγάλη αυτής!

[TonyLoco23]

These students seem to be speaking very naturally. Are they Greek? Or from somewhere else?

[Zagrebecanin]

That is perfect. I thought that there were no such people in the world who would be able to speak the Greek language as in everyday life! You are great!

[anisocoro]

I supposed in Greece Ancient greek was a "compulsory" scholastic discipline, but these students seem to be rather Universitarians than College-aged ones! It is said that for Modern greek people ancient Greek is "quite affordable" to learn, easier than for Italians, English or Germans

Τὴν μὲν οὖν ἑλληνικὴν γλῶτταν, ὦ ἡλιόνοε ἄνερ, ἄριστα διδάσκεις, τὴν δὲ διδασκαλίαν παίγνιον μάλα προσφιλὲς τοῖς σοῖς μαθηταῖς δόκει μοι σὲ πεποιηκέναι. Ἔγωγε Ἕλλην εἰμὶ καὶ ἐν Ἀθήναις οἰκῶ. Καίπερ οὐ τὴν ερασμιακὴν χρώμενος, ὅμως πάντα ἐν τῷ διδασκαλείῳ λεχθέντα ῥαδίως ἐνόησα. Νῦν δη λέγω σοι, ὦ ὠκύνοε ἅνερ, τόδε: Εἰ κιματογράφησιν τινά ποιήσαις μετά τοῦ Ὁμήρου ἐπῶν ἀναγνώσεως, μάλιστα σοὶ εὐγνώμων ἄν γενοίμιν. Ἔρρωσο καὶ εὐδαιμόνει φίλε.
