and omega is a long one of these:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open-mid_back_rounded_vowel
It's over
typo
Basically as greek evolved all η ι υι ει ηι οι etc sounded like ι
yes
and ancient greek had tones
Yeah I can't do sounds like that lol, only nords can do that
with thier oeoe stuff
but modern greeks have stresses, correct?
and not only did ancient greek have tones, but the tone would go up and down within the same vowel and diphthong
smh
Let me google what a stress is
stress is what english has
although there are naturally tones, the stress is more important
Wikipedia says we have dynamic stress
the accent in a modern greek word marks a stronger emphasis
in ancient greek it marked a higher pitch
Yeah nobody can do the pitches even in erasmian accent
like agora
@Banjod <:pepelaugh:640412982119235596>
the "a" at the end is a long vowel which goes up in pitch
pure rope theory
Yeah that's why it's αγορά with an accent <:ahem:639979147782914084>
but do you go up in pitch in modern greek?
Up in pitch <:pinothink:401744526915534858>
That's not just accentuating the vowel right?
it's like a higher note in music
No we don't change our voice to say a vowel, but we say it louder if that's what you mean
@Banjod Litearlly who
every greek
I don't know, I thought he might be greek, but he has an english name and says uk
just looks angry
i've watched various academics try to pronounce ancient greek
