Publisher Description

Even forty-four years after its first appearance, this little book remains a very useful tool for those studying Ancient Greek at intermediate level. Of particular value for translating verse is Part 1, which contains about 850 words in common use in Sophocles and Euripides. For those who still study prose composition, Part 2 is an invaluable treasure-house of useful words and phrases. Part 3 contains some helpful guidelines on Greek idiomatic usage.
