Filoglossia - Learning Greek as a foreign language

In Greek, there are two verb conjugations (συζυγίες): the first conjugation (πρώτη συζυγία) and the second conjugation (δεύτερη συζυγία).

First conjugation verbs end in the first person singular of the Present Tense (Ενεστώτας) in unstressed –ω (γράφω, διαβάζω, παίζω), while second conjugation verbs end in -ώ, i.e. they are stressed in the first person of the Present Tense on the last syllable (οδηγώ, περπατώ, ευχαριστώ, καλλιεργώ).
