Learn Greek with GreekPod101.com! Your well-meaning friend wants to take you back out on horseback today in Greece before you return home. But today’s agenda is bird watching.

Last time, he embarrassed you by continuously rolling his eyes at you every time you didn’t know the Greek word for an animal. This time, knowing the agenda ahead of time, you prepared. As you saddle up and head out over the hills, you spot some vultures in the trees. Seizing an opportunity, you call out in Greek, “Look, those vultures are eyeing that cheetah’s lunch!” Surprised, he looks at YOU and not the vulture. Acting as if you don’t notice, and not missing a beat, you call out in Greek, “Ooh, hurry! That quail is about to fly away!” Still looking shocked, he decides to try to trick you. He looks around and calls out in Greek, “Those ducks, they are bobbing in the water.” Calmly, you reply in Greek, “Yes, there are a few in the water and few over there on the grass too.” Finally you smile, rolling your eyes, and tell him in Greek, “I guess birds of a feather flock together. You didn’t think I was going to come unprepared again, did you?” Learning Greek with GreekPod101.com is the most fun and effective way to learn Greek!
