Each word needs to be learned individually, Duo uses each new word several times in a lesson so you can get used to the spelling. One very important hint is that the first person in the present tense.... e.g. I have έχω , I see βλέπω, I drink πίνω etc always ends with ω. The word I (Εγω) isn't even needed.
You have the wrong idea of how the Drop Down dictionary functions. The top word is the one you should choose the others are for other sentences.
You eat "κοτόπουολο" buy the "κότα" is running around the yard. Actually, "κοτόπουλο" can aslo be used for a live chicken...but "κότα" is not used when referring to the food.

Many thanks. I have a few observations. First, it is confusing to users to include non-correct choices in the drop down menu. Second, one cannot go back to the tips without leaving the lesson. I think a link should allow one to switch back and forth. It would make the tips more useful. I have started printing out the tips but the printouts pile up; it would be best to be able to access them in the midst of an exercise. Third, so far as I can ascertain, there is not a link to the Greek Forum on the Greek tree page, so unless one memorizes or writes down the link, it is not particularly accessible.

If you read the Tips in the comment above you will see that it clearly states that the top hint is the best. The others might be needed for other sentences and will appear at the top when needed.
