Slides: in our Github repository (PDF)
Starting from a set of morphologically annotated and lemmatized short texts in Greek (from a Greek reader prepared by members of the Department of Classical Philology, University of Zagreb), we will explain and demonstrate how to use BaseX and XQuery to produce Anki spaced repetition vocabulary exercises.
We will use the Dickinson College Core Vocabulary list to identify basic vocabulary, that is, the words most frequent in ancient Greek texts usually read today.
