In this opening lesson, you’ll receive the PDF e‑book, along with a downloadable audio file link featuring two voices:
A native Greek speaker (my daughter),
And my voice, a non-native Greek who has advanced to fluency after 25 years of living and teaching in Greece as a Greek language professor.
This dual-speaker format replicates common advanced Greek courses, where "you learn through everyday conversations between native speakers"—but with added clarity as you hear both perspectives in real time.

In this lesson, we explore the nuanced usage of:

Πριν – meaning "before" or "until" in temporal contexts,
and how they interact with the future tense in Greek.
