...I really need to learn Greek. *sighs*

I mean, I was planning to anyway, Classics major, you know, but -- I really need to learn Greek. I wonder if I will go crazy if I try and take Greek and Latin at the same time?

I mean, I at least need to learn the Greek alphabet, so I can sound things out. I can do that some of the time, because I do know a fair chunk of the alphabet, but not all the time.

(The funny thing is, if I had joined a sorority or an honor fraternity, I would know the Greek alphabet. *sighs some more*)

Well, apparently Greek and Latin are really similar grammar-wise, except Greek is more regular than Latin, and I assume their vocabularies are different enough that the words would be less difficult to confuse than, say, if you were learning French and Spanish at the same time (I have not learned any Greek, so I can't say this for sure, and there's probably some vocabulary transfer due to all the educated Romans knowing Greek, but that's my impression, anyway). A lot of people do take them at the same time, but I can't comment on their sanity. :P
