The third item in this tool is the Greek Display selector. This is the default setting and what you will see when you first view a Greek text. Latin transliteration uses the Roman alphabet to represent Greek, and employs long marks for circumflexes, etc. It is difficult for beginners to study Greek using the Roman alphabet. Accents are indicated by special code characters which immediately follow the letter they are accenting in the original Greek.
Beta code includes notation for many types of punctuation, scansion, and papyrological keys.
Accents and breathing marks are clearly represented. Reading the combination of breathing marks, accents, etc. takes some practice. The remainder of the viewing options employ Greek fonts. Which of these options you choose depends on your operating system and browser type and version. Follow the recommendations for using a special Greek font or for using Unicode , based on your particular configuration.
