Who will benefit

If you can read the letters but get lost in a real Greek text — this module is for you.

  • You got tired of opening Google Translate on every second word
  • You're preparing for an exam — there's always a text with questions
  • You learned words by lists, but they don't add up to a real text
  • You want to read and hear how it sounds
  • Time is tight — you want 10 minutes per text + test and move on

How much to read — your pace

One text takes 10–20 minutes with the test. One a day, one a week — what matters is not stopping.

One a week

10 minutes once a week

One text plus the test on the weekend. Better than nothing: reading keeps your vocabulary active and trains your ear for spoken Greek.

Every other day

3 texts a week

One text every other day. In a month you go through 12 texts; vocabulary grows naturally because words repeat in different contexts.

Daily

1 text a day

Cover the whole catalog at your level in 2 months and move to the next one. Perfect before an exam where reading speed matters.

  • B1: mid-length texts with past tenses and complex conjunctions
  • B2: long texts with subjunctive, passive voice and idioms — almost like real life
  • Question types in the test mirror the exam: T/F, multiple choice, matching

Turn on «Show translation» — the English version appears next to the Greek. Read in parallel, listen to the audio, then try reading just the Greek. That's a normal strategy for A1–A2.

It's the browser's speech synthesis (Web Speech API) with a Greek voice. Not a studio recording, but it gives correct stress and intonation — great for listening practice.
