If you traveled to Greece this summer, chances are the Greek alphabet caught your eye everywhere—on street signs, shopfronts, menus, and ferry tickets. From bustling Αθήνα (Athens) to the islands, the language surrounds you at every step. But without knowing the alphabet, reading even the simplest words can feel like a puzzle.

That’s why the first module of Staellinika’s revised Beginner’s Course focuses on mastering the Greek alphabet. Learning it early not only helps you pronounce words correctly but also clears up the confusion that often comes from transliteration which is the process of writing a letter or word using the closest corresponding letters of a different alphabet or script. With the alphabet under your belt, you’ll quickly go from recognizing letters to reading signs across Greece, making travel easier and more rewarding.

Now enhanced with AI, Staellinika’s lessons adapt to your pace, provide targeted practice, and keep you motivated with cultural insights. By starting with the alphabet, you’ll set the foundation for a journey into the Greek language that feels practical and exciting from the very beginning.
