Learn Classical Armenian!
Learn Classical Armenian! started in June, 2021 with daily Grabar (Classical Armenian) exercises. The exercises are designed to take about 5-10 minutes to work through, with most of the material sourced or modified from the 5th century Classical Armenian translation of the Bible (of which, you can find an invaluable Grabar-English concordance at Arak29 ). With the encouragement of Robert Bedrosian , the exercises have increasingly come to focus on "spoken" Grabar by emphasizing short, spoken-style phrases that help the reader think in Grabar and, hopefully, come to parse longer sentences later on. To whet the appetite, here are some famous literary lines that I recently translated into 5th century style Classical Armenian — Additional resources: *If you are looking for “official” material, the following resources may be helpful: i) The University of Texas has free Classical Armenian lessons here , ii) Robert Thomson has a textbook that you can access freely here , iii)
