If you have quizlet access for vocab, use it.

Furthermore, both Zondervan Grammars (BBG and BBH) have iphone apps which have the vocab from pretty much all the primarily used grammars. They're not that cheap though, for what they are.

I also found this online workbook a while back, (which I believe has an answers key somewhere?) which is free, which is a bonus. I'd recommend going to some sort of a printing shop, getting it bound and using that for exercises.

I plan to do this over Christmas/the new year/early next year to revise my Greek because I was a shitty student at the time I was learning Greek, so I didn't properly learn verbs and participles (and as such can't really remember that well) and because I haven't retained a lot of things since I first learned them. My Hebrew is going much better.

Any suggestions for moving to the intermediate level?

Edit:

I actually have two Hebrew Grammars. The first was the Cambridge Introduction to Hebrew

This textbook has some problems in that it doesn't stick to convention with its paradigm arrangement. Hebrew Textbooks go from 3ms - 1cs, 3cp(mp) - 1cp, because it aids in memorisation in terms of the order of the forms. He does it the opposite way, which can be confusing.

He's also quite technical and makes some odd decisions introducing students to infinitives and participle forms before verbal forms, and then builds on derived stems using those forms. I suppose he wanted to get the nominal types out of the way ASAP.

The fantastic thing about this book, though, is the CD that comes with it, which comes with a host of exercises, a free digital copy of the workbook and answer book, as well as printable paradigm sheets and whatnot. It's harder to work with, but from what it seems, you progress further in a shorter time because you a very thorough technical basis to work with.

I subsequently got BBH too, which I think is much better in terms of its pedagogical value.

I was thinking I might re-purchase the BBG workbook, as I used that when I first did Greek, but like an idiot, I did a lot of the exercises in Pen, making it un-reusable.
