Of course, this raises the issue of pronunciation. I have a Greek friend who
has been trying to teach me to read Greek with the modern system of
pronunciation, and I must say that this does seem to allow one to read the text
with more "feeling", and it sounds more vibrant and less artificial than the
usual system we are taught. Any thoughts on this?
