The 1980 first edition was based entirely on text material collected by hand and ear. Since then, says Hesse (U. of Lund, Sweden) scholars have shed much light on the morphology and functions of the Modern Greek verb, and computers have provided huge text corpi to study words and patterns. Among his other accomplishments are a Greek-Danish and a Danish-Greek dictionary. Distributed in the US by ISBS. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
