It's good to be Russian! You also go through 3 writing systems at once: Cyrillic (Russian and national languages), Latin (foreign languages), Greek writing (physics, chemistry, mathematics). Probably only Georgians and Armenians are in a better position, because they have their own writing system added to these 3.
Great content, I enjoyed it and it was helpful to me. I hope you would revisit the greek alphabet video with more in depth guide on how to write the letters.
Hello . Nice video . By the way I am from Greece and we don't write the letters in a "fancy way" like that . The way you write the letters remind me more of the russian calligraphy . But it's a good video either way .
@PedroAugusto-xp4tt Oh I get it. Nice question. Personally, I know english, greek and its been a while that I study russian and albanian language as well. What I find weird about russian language for example, is the fact that they have two different ways of writing. For formal writing is in cursive and for text for example is more like block lettering but then again some letters are different base on the way you need to write. But in greek language its just the 24 letters. In school they show you the block lettering method but then I guess that it is a matter of choice if you want to write them as cursive. Writing them in a block lettering way, I guess is so that the other person can understand what you wrote. Personally, in all the languages I know right now I write the words in a cursive way and the letters really close to one another, but it is difficult for the teachers to understand what I write. So just relax and take it easy and learn the letters then let yourself write in the way you are comfortable in. I wish the best for your studies. 😊 I hope that I could be if some help. Have a nice day.
Thanks for the video!! Very nice! Two questions: 1- Is this the actual way (more or less / exactly) people write in Greek? (I've no idea at all). 2- And could you show some examples of two or three letters together? (The small ones). Perhaps there's already a video of this? Thank you.
Hi, I'm not from Greek, either I speak Greek but I could try to answer you thanks to various sources I've check recently. That is, in real Life, people I've spoke in the Internet and more. 1) No, most people learn and write in Print letters and without connecting them though this depends the hand. Purely cursive letters like shown are not common at all, only calligraphers and Elder people write purely in It. Some letters for young people look similar enough and others and mainlt adults will not see this similarities as they have got so used to print letters that It will be difficult for them, and I'm not counting just capital letters but sometimes both. 2) There're many channels trying to Connect this letters. Though the videos I've like the most are the ones made by "Hufli". They not only show the two, Print and Cursive versions of each letters but also Variations of this ones and how to connect them (At least to each-other). If you ask me there are some ways of writting in Cursive that don't necessarily need you to Connect every single letter. What matters on that situations is letter and word spacing.

This video made me realise how much of the greek alphabet we took to make the latin one.
Actually, thank you ahah 🙃

Very kind of you, thank you!
I am Greek so thank you! I can improve my writing now!

I know, it's more of an old style handwriting :) Thanks for your comment!
I do write them like that
@PedroAugusto-xp4tt personally, I think I write like a doctor. I mean, my writing is really bad... even I can't understand what I write sometimes. 😅

Cursive is better than regular block letters.
The Greek alphabet is dominant in mathematics. Take the Gamma function, Riemann zeta function and more...
Thanks for the video!! Very nice!

@@m4rloncha Oh, thank you very much!!
Older people used to write like that, calligraphy used to be a compulsory course at greek schools, stopped in the 1970s
how do you distinguish capital Tav from capital Gamma?
dude they're completely different
@@PernanbucFolk can you look at them again and tell me how?? 0:27 3:41
The vertical line in gamma should be positioned more to the left, whereas the vertical line in tau should be more central. Make sense?@@selladore4911
make tau seperated and gamma unseperated and not sticking out i think
@@selladore4911 bro they're totally different what are u talking about
Γ and Τ are the same ?
I mean, so are l and I
What the φυςκ?
Hello my people squishy calami ty
why does the b looks like the barbie logo😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
💀
Ξ looks like a -Z-
But where is no GREEK letters, it's Latin letters.
Latins took there alphabet from Greeks , hence the similarities
It's greek smh
It's greek letters.
If you know the Latin Alphabet, you already know over half the Greek Alphabet and a good portion of the Cyrillic Alphabet. All are based off the Greek
@@chrismc410 Based, but they aren't same.
Video named "How to write GREEK letters" and there is no GREEK letters. Videos name is lying
