This short grammar aims to differentiate the grammatical material with a focus on key aspects. The syntax is committed to a functional approach to grammar. The goal of this summary is not to provide a complete representation of Greek grammar, but to assist learners in distinguishing the essential from the non-essential. This enables them to develop a strategy for pattern recognition and gap learning within the often very limited time available today for learning the Greek language, while still acquiring the ability to translate Greek texts into German appropriately after completing language instruction. The grammar is independent of any specific teaching materials, but it is tailored to Kantharos in that example sentences and paradigm words are selected from it.
