Greek Script (First 5 Lines):

Μῆνιν ἄειδε θεὰ Πηληϊάδεω Ἀχιλῆος,μῆνιν ἄσπετον, ἥτις Ἀχαιοὺς ἔθηκεν ἄλγεα πολλά,πολλὰς δ᾽ ἀφθίτους ψυχὰς Ἄϊδι προΐαψε,ἥρωας αὐτοὺς, κύνες δέ τε πάντας ἔδαιχθενὀρνέοισί τε εἰπεσί πτερινοῖς ἀλλὰ Διὸς ἤθελε μήνις.

Sing, goddess, of the wrath of Achilles son of Peleus,that destructive wrath which brought countless woes upon the Achaians,sent many valiant souls prematurely to Hades,and left the heroes themselves prey for dogs and birds of every kind,but so it was willed by Zeus.

Tips for Pronunciation Practice:

• Use online resources or language learning apps to hear native speakers pronounce the Greek words. Pay attention to the vowel sounds (alpha, epsilon, eta, etc.) and the placement of stress accents (acute, grave, circumflex).
• Mandarin tones are crucial for meaning. Practice saying the pinyin with the correct tone number (1 for high flat, 2 for rising, 3 for falling-rising, 4 for falling). Shadow native speakers or recordings to refine your pronunciation.
