It all depends on your goals, of course, but I would go for Ancient Greek. In my
experience, it is much easier to go from Ancient to Modern Greek than the other way around. There are numerous reasons for that, most having to do with the way the language developed over time. I think Ancient Greek and Latin go wonderfully together, and many people (think: classical scholars) study these two languages side by side. Personally, I have been working on Attic Greek for almost a year now, and I now feel compelled to go back to my study of Latin, so that in the coming months I will be working on the two languages together. Ancient Greek and Latin are interconnected in more ways than one-- linguistically, historically, and culturally--and it makes a lot of sense to learn them together. And also, importantly, Russian will come much easier to you if you master the highly inflected Latin and Ancient Greek. Boa sorte! :) 1 person has voted this message useful |
