This is a preliminary count of the number of potential Greek-like words in Linear A, and the total may have to be revised slightly downwards after every last word has been cross-checked for contextual accuracy with every last Linear A tablet on which they appear.

TOTAL number of potential pre-Greek substratum (PGS), proto-Greek (PG) and Mycenaean-derived New Minoan words (NM) = 305
TOTAL number of words in the Linear Z Lexicon = 1076
Percentage of Greek-like words in the Lexicon = 28 %
 
NOTE that these Greek words in Linear A do not include words derived from other ancient languages antecedent to Linear A. I shall post those in the next post, and then add all of the Greek-like words to words of other origins, to arrive at the grand total of potentially deciphered words in Linear A, which will clearly exceed 30 %.
