Welcome to κῆτος!

This is the first incarnation of ketos, a website designed for students in the first year of Ancient Greek at the University of Waterloo. The exercises are designed to accompany the textbook Athenaze: an Introduction to Ancient Greek. For the most part, the vocabulary found in bold at the beginning of each chapter is used. Exercises come in two formats (flashcard and multiple choice) and focus on building various competencies (vocabulary, morphology, syntax, and translation). Flashcard exercises focus largely but not exclusively on nouns, adjectives, and pronouns and multiple choice exercises on verbs.
