Chapter 4 — Punctuation and Syllabification

Full Screen (Interactive) Print / PDF Markdown

A 20-item drill in which students divide Greek words into syllables, identify the accent position by name (ultima, penult, or antepenult), and name the accent type (acute, grave, or circumflex). Words are drawn from high-frequency NT vocabulary. The drill reinforces the three syllabification rules and the accent placement rules from Ch4.
