As you already probably know the greek vowels are: α, ε, η, ι, υ, ο, ω
These vowels are always short: ε,ο
These vowels are always long: η,ω
What this means? For instance the word "ἡμῶν" is pronounced "ΕΕΜΟΟΝ" while the word "ενός" is pronouned "ENOS"
The rest of the vowels (α,ι,υ) can be either short or long
There are also the diphthongs.
In general the diphthongs are always short. A special exception is the diphthongs "αι" and "οι" when they appear at the end of the word.
Of course the are some advanced rules. For the time being you need to stick with these basic ones.
