For those looking to learn a language quickly, Tim Ferris (of the 4 Hour Work Week) recommends you learn vocabulary based on frequency. For example, the 100 most frequently used words in English writing make up about 25% of all English writing. That’s a huge return on investment for learning only 100 worlds, right? I once had a student ask me to prepare her a list of the 100 most frequently used Greek words. As far as I know, there is no official list of this type, so I created the list below based on my experience with the language, not on any official research. However, for those looking to learn 100 of the most commonly used Greek words, this is the right place to start.WordTransliterationMeaning1τιti what2τοto the (neuter, singular, nominative and accusative) / it (personal pronoun, neuter, singular, accusative)3οo the (masculine, singular)4ηee the (feminine, singular)5τονton the (masculine, singular, nominative)/ him (personal pronoun, masculine, singular, accusative)6τηνtin the (feminine, singular, accusative) / her (personal pronoun, feminine, singular, accusative)7οιee the (masculine and feminine, plural, nominative)8ταta the (neuter, plural)9τωνton of the (possessive case, masculine, feminine and neuter, plural)10μουmou my / me(personal pronoun, singular, genitive)11σουsou your / you (singular)12τουtouof the (possessive case, masculine and neuter singular)/ his / him (personal pronoun masculine or neuter, genitive, singular)13μαςmas our / us14σαςsas your / you (plural)15τουςtous their / them16εγώego I17εσύeseeyou18εμείςemeiswe19μέναmena me (personal pronoun, singular, accusative)20σέναsena you (personal pronoun, singular, accusative)21έναςenas a / one (masculine, singular, nominative)22ένανenan a / one (masculine, singular, accusative)23μίαmis a / one (feminine, singular, nominative and accusative)24έναena a / one (neuter, singular, nominative and accusative)25πολύpolee very / much / a lot26ναna to (particle)27δε(ν)de not 28μηνmin do not29και (κι)ke (ki) and30μεme with / me (personal pronoun, singular, accusative)31απόapo from32γιαgia for33μαma but34ναιne yes35όχιohi no36στονston in, at, to (masculine, singular, accusative)37στοsto in, at, to (neuter, singular, accusative)38στηsti
