Good luck learning Greek, Female and Armenian.

I have been considering Greek the most beautiful language in the world for a long time, and my view has not changed a bit since. When I listen to Greek songs, like I am now, I am still amazed at the beauty of it from time to time. And that's not a compliment, that's the reality of it.

Re: What languages do you speak?

And the strange thing of it, I am thinking, is that the Greeks themselves cannot hear the beauty that I hear because it is their own language.

You are absolutely correct Really. Now is their a language that you think that sounds similar to Greek?

Re: What languages do you speak?

No, Prokomenos, from all the languages I have heard, there is none that sounds similar to Greek. Even though English and French are partly based on Greek, they don't sound like Greek at all.

Re: What languages do you speak?

I'm not even 1% Greek, but I love Greece and your language. That's my answer to the question stated in the topic:

I'm Polish, live in Poland, and of course I'm a Polish native speaker. I'm also fluent in English.
Quite fluent: Spanish.
Enough to make a simple conversation: Greek (I can also write and read), French (I learn it at school, and Greek on my own, however I still can speak better Greek than French).
Some basics: German, Italian

This school year, which is my last at high school, I must take studying to the final exams seriously. But when I'll go to university, and if I have some time- I plan to improve my Greek.
