Beta {B} like V in Vertical
Delta {D} like TH in The
Theta {Q} like TH in Thorough
Rho {R} like R in Rough without aspiration
Upsilon {U} is more like Ypsilon
Phi {F} like F in Fail
Chi {X} like the ch in the Scottish word loch, without aspiration
Iota,Eta and Ypsilon sound like I in pit
Omega and Omicron sound like O in pot, but in ancient Greek(Hellenic) Omega was dragged out(o for the sound -mega for big/long) and Omicron was short(o for the sound -micron for small/short)

Also Athenians used to pronounce vowels like Iota,Eta and Ypsilon as I in Pit, but Spartans pronounced them as A in Crap*.
So this is why Spartans said "'Η ταν 'η επι τας" (i tan i epi tas) and athenians pronounced it as "'Η την 'η επι τής" (i tin i epi tis)
