Leonard Muellner (Professor Emeritus of Classical Studies at Brandeis University) and Belisi Gillespie present all the content covered in two semesters of a college-level Introduction to Ancient Greek course.

Moving beyond the indicative "mood," Professor Muellner introduces the subjunctive and optative moods by explaining their forms. In the next video, we'll attack the concept of these moods in a bit more detail. An important take-away from this unit and something to recognize as you move forward is the alternation of thematic vowels. Pages 63-67 in the Hansen & Quinn texbook are a helpful resource for mastering this material.
