I want to give my friend - who is very Greek - a gift for Christmas and she doesn't really have anything that's really Greek. There aren't any Greek stores around me but she does speak Greek fluently - if that helps at all. Thank you!

I would prefer something that ISN'T food or a cook book. She doesn't need that.

How to write a greek mythology report?

I haven't written a report in awhile, so I was hoping I could get some ideas on what my teacher might expect. At first I was given a chapter titled "Poseidon, Sea deities, Group Divinities, and Monsters." The thought in my mind when I started writing the report was to talk about what the chapter entitles except with more information from other resources. For example at the end of the chapter it doesn't give much information on the monsters so I wrote some specifics like what roles the monsters played in Greek mythology. I also summarized and quoted two stories of particular divinities. Additionally, I wrote about how the divinities were depicted. You can see I just talked about more information on what the chapter entitles. To me it doesn't seem like this is how you write a report.

I have to make up my own Greek/Roman Goddess. I named her Glacilicles, the goddess of ice and glaciers. I picked Boreas (actual god of cold winter air) to be her father and Arethusa (actual goddess known as "the waterer") to be her mother. I have to come up with a myth that talks about how glaciers are formed. Anyone have any suggestions?

I would like to know if my name can be translated into greek and how you would write it if my name is Stacie. And i live...you wish

Since she had been granted honororary citizenship by Greece, for her works on Antique Greece, I assume that everyone in Greece is sad today

@Elcoun, she wasn't a "mentor", she was a philosopher, historian, linguist, specialist in hellenic studies
@Elcoun, ok, I understand

The original 5 translators of the New World Translation had a combined 2 years of college in ancient biblical language. Read some of the garbage in there, its like they typed in greek words in Google Translate and copied them onto paper and printed!

"Thank you. I am glad that you were happy reading my letter. I think of you everyday too. You are always on my mind. Although we are far away, you are always in my heart. Some people may be living close to each other but really, they are far away..... If they think different thoughts, they are not close. But if they think the same thoughts, they are close. Don't forget. I am always thinking of you."

Thank you!
