Appendix:Greek script

This article lists, for Standard Modern Greek, the 24 letters of the alphabet, the diacritical marks, punctuation marks and additional, rarely found, archaic letters some of which are still used today.

Diacritics
Since the introduction of the monotonic system of spelling in 1982 there have only been two diacritics in everyday writing: the accent ΄  (the τόνος) and the diaeresis  ¨  (the διαλυτικά), occasionally these are combined  ΅  as in. In general, every word of more than one syllable will be stressed on one of the last three syllables, and this will be marked with an accent.

Greek has two other marks used when writing Greek numbers: the numeral sign &  (eg Δ&#x0374; = 4) and the lower numeral sign  &  (eg &#x0375;Δ = 4,000)

Variant letters
† Called, this letter is only used as the final letter of a word.

Archaic letters
Letters which are no longer used in Modern Greek or have special uses.
