The Art of Grammar

The Art of Grammar (Greek: Τέχνη Γραμματική - or romanized, Téchnē Grammatikḗ) is a treatise on Greek grammar, attributed to Dionysius Thrax, who wrote in the 2nd century BC.

It is the first work on grammar in Greek, and also the first concerning a Western language.

[citation needed] It sought mainly to help speakers of Koine Greek understand the language of Homer, and other great poets of the past.

[5] There is no morphological analysis and the text uses the Word and Paradigm model.

[6][7] It was translated into Syriac by Joseph Huzaya of the school of Nisibis in the 6th century.
