Hey friends,
Hope all is well! I apologize for the late email this Sunday but I write all the emails myself on Sundays (I don’t schedule them) and today we had our first Daily Greek community video call so fell behind! :D
This has been a crazy week since we launched the Daily Greek community on the Skool.com platform and reached more then 100 members. We had our first Zoom call today with more than 20 people joining from 8 different countries, and it was amazing to meet and talk to everyone.
If you have not joined yet, you can join at www.skool.com/greek and lock in the price of $20/month. The price will go up soon, so this is your chance to get in at the lowest price possible—I would love to meet you. Our next call will be next weekend!
There have already been amazing discussions on topics like traveling to Greece, Greek food, and music, so it’s wonderful to see people connecting around their love for Greece.
Now let’s move to our usual Sunday Dose of Greek newsletter sections.

Grammar Tip of the Week
The Difference Between “Αυτός” and “Αυτό”
• Αυτός (aftos) is used for masculine subjects (e.g., Αυτός είναι ο Δημήτρης - He is Dimitris).
• Αυτό (afto) is used for neuter subjects (e.g., Αυτό είναι το βιβλίο - This is the book).
Pay attention to the gender of the noun to use the correct form!
Fun Fact About Greece
Did you know? The word “marathon” comes from the Greek town of Marathon, where the messenger Pheidippides ran approximately 25 miles to Athens to announce victory in the Battle of Marathon in 490 BC.
Wishing you all a fantastic week ahead! 😊
Warm regards,
Dimitris
