Those 'grammars which deal with accents scatter their information throughout their pages,' writes the author, 'and some of that information I soon discovered to be correct for Attic Greek, but incorrect for the Greek of the New Testament.' Along with a step-by-step presentation of the rules of accenting, illustrated by examples, this manual provides practice exercises and an answer key to aid comprehension."--Back cover ER -
