Hi, I love these podcasts, really helpful, but i’m having a slight problem. I can download everything after lesson 15 0k, but all the lessons before that are opening in quicktime when I press download. What am i doing wrong? Is there any way you could send me the download links direct? I’m dying to learn more Greek! Many thanks.

How interesting. Lottie had download problems with lessons before Lesson 15, i.e., they ended when she reached Lesson 16, while my download problems began with Lesson 16.

Hi My name is George and i´m second generation greek living in Panama (Central America). I really enjoy these podcasts because I´m missing this part of my heritage. Thanks for this effort to help people understand greek language in such a simple way.

Regarding the download of the previous podcast, The simplest way is to go thru itunes. look for hitgreece.com. There is where you find the last five podcast. ON THE COLUMN “PODCAST”, ON THE RIGHT HAND SIDE, THERE IS AN ARROW POINTIN TO THE RIGHT—>. CLICK ON THIS ARROW AND IT WILL TAKE YOU TO THE ITUNE PAGE WHERE YOU CAN DOWNLOAD ALL THE PREVIOUS PODCAST. I did it.

Thank you. Do you want to contact me at jurisconsultus@earthlink.net rather than on the web site?
