So choosing a 100 year period to represent all ancient texts is reddit

would modern greeks better understand the erasmian pronunciation or the classical pronuncation?

avreham

vs ahbraham

from what i understand, both the erasmian and modern greek pronuncations are extremely simplified versions of the classical

Not to mention greeks always pronounced older texts based on their current pronunciation (if that makes sense)

they pronounce older texts with modern pronunciation

@stem What do you mean erasmian vs classical

Isn't erasmian classical

I heard a decent argument that you should learn ancient greek with modern pronunciation

because it creates continuity

erasmian is shit

and of course, it's easier to learn

not even close to classical

tell us stem

well

is scholarly close

if you look at the pronunciation guides on wiktionary.org

they have 5th century bc attic

which i think is considered classical

but that's not erasmian

@stem Provide some examples

i forgot the erasmian

but i was learning it

and i noticed the classical was different

venis

vs benis

i looked at the pronunciation guides on greek learning guides

How would you know what classical sounded like if erasmian is the closest we have to classical

and they basically don't understand the difference, for example, between omicron and omega
