I lived in Cyprus for a few years - I was born there, because my father was in the Army. <BR/><BR/>So in my teens I had this idea that I wanted to learn Greek. I learned the basics after we moved back here, but with no-one to talk to, didn't take it any further.<BR/><BR/>About a year ago I bought my first computer, and got internet access, and realised that I could use this to get Greek language content. So I have a rule that I use Greek wherever possible.<BR/><BR/>So I've no real need or reason to learn it - I'm fulfilling a lifetime dream. I wonder sometimes if I could get a job in Greece, then I'd really be able to get good at it...Brian o vretanoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02982178574498189251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2155163465692365863.post-36921959979076865782007-12-06T23:32:00.000+00:002007-12-06T23:32:00.000+00:00Brian, just what is the deal with you and Greek? ...Brian, just what is the deal with you and Greek?
