I'm really impressed with languagetransfer.org and their Greek course and while I don't
want to get serious about learning it for a long time yet I want to spend a week L-R'ing it just so I have some basic knowledge...but I can't find a Modern Greek audiobook to download anywhere. I tried typing ηχοβιβλία into google (from the thread on the word for "audiobook" in many languages) but nothing doing. I'll L-R literally anything anything long enough to be suitable, even the Bible or other religious texts as long as it's in MODERN Greek. Any suggestions? 1 person has voted this message useful | |

I think you can forget about free greek audiobooks.
I have searched and only find one about a fairytale, short one, on amazon.com . ps. I didn't search for religious texts in modern greek. 1 person has voted this message useful | |

The Jehova's Witnesses have tons of audio with matching scripts, for nearly any language you can imagine, including a lot of stuff for Modern Greek. I am using their material right now to learn Greek.
I don't know how long your texts need to be, but they have one publication called "What Does the Bible Really Teach", which is over 200 pages long. It is available in Modern Greek in both text and audio form. For beginners, they produce a 300 page long children's book of Bible stories, available in audio and text form for many languages, including Greek. They also produce the Watchtower magazine monthly in Greek in text and audio form, but these issues are shorter, perhaps 25-30 pages long. All of that is available for free at: www.jw.org Just explore the tabs on the left side to locate their Greek collection. (It will say "Audio Recordings" and "Digital Publications"). In my opinion this website is the best kept secret in the language learning world. Tons of free material for any language you can imagine. I hope this will help you.

This site has some children's stories in Greek with texts to flip through the pages. I
listen to them with my daughter (who speaks Greek fluently, since she goes to Greek kindergarten) - they are simple, but you can still learn from them. 1 person has voted this message useful | |

Zorillo: individually they are all too small to L-R, so I'd never have noticed them by
myself, but there are (as you say) lots, it should be possible to put them all together to get something worth L-R'ing as they are all on a similar theme. Thanks a lot. :-) Edited by Random review on 19 February 2012 at 2:15pm 1 person has voted this message useful |
