Greek (Ελληνικά), an Indo-European language spoken by about 12 million people in Greece, Cyprus and many other countries, including Albania, Armenia, Australia, Austria, Bahamas, Bulgaria, Canada, Djibouti, Egypt, France, Georgia, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Jordan and Kazakhstan.

The Greek alphabet has been in continuous use for the past 2,750 years or so since about 750 BC. It was developed from the Canaanite/Phoenician alphabet and the order and names of the letters are derived from Phoenician. The original Canaanite meanings of the letter names was lost when the alphabet was adapted for Greek. For example, alpha comes for the Canaanite aleph (ox) and beta from beth (house).

Greek has been one of the languages of the European Parliament since 1981. Greek is also spoken in several other countries that are members of the European Union.

Greek is one of the main languages for business in Europe. Greek is one of the languages often translated by Comms Multilingual. Greek translation projects have included work on advertisements, brochures, instructions for mobile phones, scripts, manuals, commercial documents and typesetting.
