With this free course of 45 video lessons you will learn to speak Modern Greek

Modern Greek is considered the last stage in the evolution of the Greek language, and corresponds to the variant of this language spoken from the Modern Age to the present. The date of its emergence is symbolically taken as the fall of Constantinople (1453), although this date does not correspond to a clear linguistic boundary and many of the modern phonetic features of the language had already appeared centuries before. For much of this time, a situation of diglossia existed, with different regional oral dialects alongside archaic written forms. During the nineteenth and twentieth centuries the linguistic controversy around the popular or demotic variant (dimotiki) and the archaic cult (Kazarevusa) was important. Modern Greek today is based on the demotic variant and is the official language of Greece and Cyprus.
