Please excuse my typo. :(

Answer 1

Hello,

I would say they all have their strength and also weaknesses. Since you are going over to greece, i would recommend some phrase books like

berlitz greek
Lonely planet greek
Rough guide to greek

Pimsleur and rosetta stone are the best in the market right now, but expensive. If i were you i would check it oout in the local library first.

Take care

Answer 2

all of the following are good ways to learn greek. If you are just visiting, than all you really need to know is the basics (like - thank you, please, where is the bathroom), most greeks know some english. but if you really want to learn the language, the best way is to just go there and then you'll get the hang of it. and if you're going during the summer, be ready for HOT weather.

Answer 3

Rossetta Stone!
