We speak Greek and most of us speak English, too. A lot of Greeks speak French or German, or both. Then, some speak Italian, Spanish, Swedish, Russian.

Answer 9

From the ages of 8 to 18 Greek kids learn English - French and German - those with a quest to learn will take up more languages - but most kids can have a decent conversation in English, French and German by the time they leave school - most will have the Cambridge Lower Certificate (or Michigan) in English (or French/German equivalent) by the time they are 16 and about 30% will go on to a higher level (proficiency)

Answer 10

Macedonian minority in Greece is forced to speak Greek, but the home language is Macedonian, the mother tongue.

Answer 11

Greek language is actuall one language, the only thing is different areas in greece have different dialects of greek. It's still one language. Just like English, if your from Texas like me, english is pretty plain and simple, but if your from New York for example, people might have an accent from there. Same thing in Greece, many area have different dialect of how they communicate in greek, that's all!
