Inhaltsangabe

Σιγά-σιγά is a soul-baring story of rediscovery in Greek, for those starting and revisiting the language.
This is the first (and easiest) entry in Greek short stories for beginners A1-A2, a series of bilingual graded readers for adult learners of Modern Greek.

Why we did a second edition:

  • Additional, expanded and more detailed word-usage explanations in the glossary compilation at the end.
  • Optimised formatting to improve the visual experience in both ebook and paperback.
  • Minor adjustments to grammar and vocabulary for better accessibility across levels.

"A human on a path to revisit, reveal and retrieve their long-forsaken soul. A wry tale made of fragmented memories, regrets, and aspirations, bound with magic realism and temporal oddities."

The book is divided into three parts:
Part 1: All chapters followed by a glossary of words marked bold in the main story.
Part 2: Repeats the story and features an English translation after each paragraph.
Part 3: An alphabetised compilation of all glossaries, with many words accompanied by usage explanations.

The entire story is in present tense (‘to be’ and ‘to have’ can be in past tense). This is how it works for each language level:
A1 (early beginners)
See words in context, and how basic sentences are structured. The glossary is there for you when things get tough; this book might be challenging.
A2 (advanced beginners)
Remember words and grammar you already know or half-know, and understand them better. You will keep seeing them in the book anyway.
B1 (early intermediates)
Explore new ways of articulating your thoughts in Greek, and be surprised by how much you can do with very basic language.
B2 (advanced intermediates)
Feel good about yourself. You know everything.
A0 (complete beginners)
Favourite this book, but don’t rush. We have another book for you: Αλλού - Elsewhere.

Enjoy.
