Grammar Rule in 30 Seconds

Mastering Greek script requires learning letter shapes, stroke order, and the distinction between uppercase and lowercase forms.

  • Always start strokes from the top-left, similar to Latin script: 'Α' starts with the left diagonal.
  • Lowercase letters like 'α' and 'β' have specific curves; focus on the rounded belly of the 'α'.
  • Connect letters only when writing in cursive; standard print is always disconnected.
