Excellent! Hope to hear you record both books I and II in this pronunciation!

Hey Luke, do you have any plans to record for Logos?

VoidLantadd

Good to hear, thanks for the reply!

Alexander Abraham Perez

With pronunciation, I wonder? Pompeian? Samosatene? Or good old Classical Attic?

good to know

With such knowledge, that you are going to voice Logos, I am now a happy man!

Just a question about two video. In a video you showed the reconstruction of the vowels' system used in Attica when the Ionic alphabet was officialized. But this was in later classical times and the Ionic alphabet was in use before the officialization. Is it possible an other vowel system where "ω, ο & ου" and "η, ε & ει" have each two qualities and not three like in 403bC? In this other video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TBIZ2WRfAgY you showed the most conservative system of the classical era's beginning (almost a hundred years earlier) and I still haven't understood whether it was actually different due to the later shift of ου and ει on the upper axis (which will indeed be completed in the Koiné era) or if it is a lack of distinctions of the phonemic transcriptions (but in both cases "ο & ου" and "ε & ει" are allophones, I guess?) The same quality of "ο & ου" and "ε & ει" would better explain the phanomena of vowels' contraction, but I'm asking because in the reconstruction of a pronunciation nothing is always black or white. I also checked your Google document about the change of Greek pronunciation over time (both pages) and you always used the close [o] and [e] to describe the ο and ε even if in the middle of classical times you said that these were more similar to mid vowels. Thank you anticipately!
