We were taught the pronunciations of some of the letters incorrectly, but as I recall, it was part of a unit on the languages of the world, so it was the only thing we learned about Greek. I can still sing it quickly, though I can't say I've ever put the knowledge to much practical use. *Try it, it works rather well... "Yankee Doodle went to London" --> "alpha beta gamma delta", except you run out of letters before the tunes up, so we added to the end, "that's the Grecian alphabet and we are all Greek schooolars". I guess we were precocious kids. The better part of two decades ago, in fourth grade I learned the Greek alphabet to the tune of “Yankee Doodle”*.

I can still run through it pretty fast, although listening to the song in the link above it seems I learned to pronounce some of the letters differently.

I guess it's a nice way to learn the Greek alphabet. Pity they have such a thick ‘r’, but oh well :-). I guess it’s a nice way to learn the Greek alphabet.
