English - The carrot with water.
 Reflection: I have completed 8 lessons  "karoto" see how it is written in Greek properly below.

Using the old Duolingo stats they used more in the first 10 years, I have already earned 10/570 crowns ( about 1%) , and completed 16/452 (about 10%)  lessons. Lexemes which equate to word parts (smaller than words as some languages also require knowledge of particles) I have completed 102 out of 3196. (not yet 10%)

Greek Learning Log - colour

         


Rule: :Greek uses the greek alphabet.  Trial and error will help you find how to type Greek letters on your computer.

Greek - το γαλάζιο νερό. (to galázio neró)

English - The blue water

Reflection: I wonder if γαλάζιο (galázio) is blue in general. In Italian, blu is considered dark blue, and azzurro is light blue (sky blue).
