    It would be a great improvement if you’d show the Greek words in English phonetics for the purpose of correct communication for people who haven’t memorized Greek letter sounds.

    I hope you can do this very soon.

    Ευχαριστώ

    Ex: παρά – pará

      Thank you for your suggestion. I get your point. However, the reason there are no English phonetics is because it’s a prerequisite to know how to read in Greek before studying the time or similar topics.
