I want to read Greek classics untranslated. What textbooks does Lain recommend to learn ancient Greek? Looking for one with plenty of linguistic info, eg info on pitch accent

you cannot learn it unless you speak to someone that has mastered the language

I'm learning Latin with Lingua Latina currently: >>5105
My plan is to learn Latin using the natural method, and later learn ancient Greek, with the expectation that I'll be able to learn a third language easily enough, even without such a great book.

Greek is pretty different from Latin, especially poetic Greek

He is probably following the natural order of learning those language many years ago. First Latin and then Ancient Greek. You could learn both too or go straight for Ancient Greek if you have 0 interest in Latin. I'm learning Latin too(among other languages) and plan to learn Ancient Greek after my Latin is good enough to read old books.

mycenian? coptic?

Luschnig and Athenaze
You'll have to fetch the second one yourself.

Shit for some reason the book wasn't uploaded. Lemme try again. As a comment, Athenaze is somewhat in the spirit of LLPSI but it does require some previous knowledge. Thus my recommendation of Luschnig. There is also a LGPSI somewhere on the internet on a CC license iirc, go look it up.

I have personally been using this as a resource.
