This paper describes an instrument that can compose a song using predicates of Ancient Greek Music. It employs the methodology and musical notation of this specific music system and at the same time, it provides a mapping mechanism that depicts the whole process to composition predicates of the usual notation of Western Music. The aim of this application is to facilitate the efforts of Ancient ...

A key observation that has emerged out of the examination of different stages of a language is that no language is static; all aspects of language are subject to change, including the sounds, the forms, the sentence structure, meanings, etc. Indeed, as far as Greek is concerned, the evidence presented in the chapters on syntactic change between Classical and Hellenistic Greek and on movement to...

Introduction. The project started with an innocuous attempt by one of the authors (it is obvious who) to learn TjjX for translating a Greek book on Mechanics, only to find that lacked the bold upright Greek lowercase letters used for symbolizing vectors such as o and @ for angular velocity vectors. After some trials with variations of "poor man's bold" ( T h e T&Xbook, p.386) it became clear th...

We present a number of experiments on parsing the Ancient Greek Dependency Treebank (AGDT), i.e. the largest syntactically annotated corpus of Ancient Greek currently available (350k words ca). Although the AGDT is rather unbalanced and far from being representative of all genres and periods of Ancient Greek, no attempt has been made so far to perform automatic dependency parsing of Ancient Gre...

Acquisition of object clitics is one of the more investigated aspects of the largely understudied variety of Modern Greek spoken in the Republic of Cyprus. Previous studies on the acquisition of clitics in Cypriot Greek usually acknowledge that the linguistic reality in Cyprus involves a state of diglossia, where the sociolinguistically ‘high’ Standard Modern Greek co-exists with the ‘low’ Cypr...

Introduction As an important foundation to theological education in our colleges and seminaries, the study and teaching of biblical Greek constitutes a challenging task as the student of the Greek New Testament (NT) is required to master a variety of grammatical forms and their functions. One of the more significant grammatical features of Greek that demands the student’s (and teacher’s) attent...

In this study, we reinvestigate the question of whether government banks are inferior to private banks. We use cross country data from 1993 to 2007 to trace the different types of government banks. These types comprise banks that acquire distressed banks, normal banks, or no banks at all. Contrary to common belief, the evidence shows that unless government banks are required to purchase a distr...

This paper tests the validity of Verdoorn’s law in Greek manufacturing. Through the Generalised Method of Moments (GMM) methodology, estimates of the Verdoorn law in aggregated and disaggregated manufacturing Greek data are obtained in order to explain disparities in income and growth among Greek manufacturing sectors. The results provided evidence that increasing returns to scale with certain,...
