Note: This page is part of the author's set of pages on the Greek language.
The following is a simple word-list, translating English words to their closest corresponding Modern Greek ones. To find a word, use the "Find in page" option of your browser (from the Edit menu), or, in Windows, hit Ctrl-F. If you need to type in Greek and you don't know how, read this note at the end of this page. There is a corresponding (reverse) Greek to English word-list.
This list should not be interpreted as a "dictionary" in any way. It was constructed by the author, at the request of his friend Joseph A. L. Insana, for the latter's MediaGlyphs project. Entries appear as concepts, rather than as words, often grouped as two or three words in one entry, provided the words are all variations of the same basic concept. This is the reason why the Find option of your browser should be used to locate words, rather than simply scrolling and locating the word alphabetically.
Brief explanation of entries: All entries except nouns are marked for their grammatical category as follows: [v] for verbs, [aj] for adjectives, [av] for adverbs, [pr] for prepositions, [pn] for pronouns, [cj] for conjunctors. For Greek adjectives, the neuter form is provided in its entirety, while the endings of the feminine and masculine forms (in that order) are given in parentheses. These endings include not only the "proper" ending (as given in the Greek nouns page), but also one character before that, to show the connection of the ending to the root (the rest of the word). Some Greek verbs that have alternative contracted forms are given in their expanded form; the reason is that the former can be easily derived from the latter. Example: the verb απορροφάω (absorb) has a contracted form: απορροφώ, obtained by contracting the ending -άω to -ώ. Verbs that appear to be in contracted form (such as ομολογώ) do not have an expanded form.
