A Brief Background of the Greek Language

Greek is the oldest Indo-European language in history.

While the Greek language is native to Greece, it is also an official language of the European Union and Cyprus.

Greek is spoken widely throughout 9 other countries, such as Australia, Italy, Albania, and Turkey.

Greek has been a documented language for more than 34 centuries. Thanks to the Greek language, alphabet, and numbering systems, Latin, Gothic, Coptic, and Cyrillic were eventually created.

The Greek language has played an important role in all of the world, through science, mathematics, literature, and religion. The New Testament of the Bible was originally written in a form of Greek, as were the works of Plato and Aristotle.

Between the Greek speaking countries, neighboring regions with Greek language leanings, and those who have moved to other areas of the globe, Greek is spoken by nearly 14 million people.

Due to its long history, notable as one of the first recorded languages, many other languages have words with Greek origin. English is a great example of this, as many English language words stem from Greek phonetics or pronunciation.

Before reaching the modern form of Greek that is relevant today, the language has transformed and mutated many times, from Proto-Greek in the third millennium BC to Ancient Greek spoken during the height of the Roman Empire.
