60% of the language you speak and write has Greek roots.-
And I'm getting the impression that YOU think Greek doesn't have "roots" in some language, OLDER than Greek? No offence, my friend, but IF you believe THAT, you have NO understanding or knowledge OF language. ANY language! And I DON'T have sufficient space to enlighten you, here. Language has been traced back THROUGH various incarnations, BEYOND the point at which it began to be written down. And Greek, just like EVERY OTHER language, has roots in languages that preceded it. Back to languages that EXISTED BEFORE there were ANY "GREEKS" (or Macedonians, or Hellenes). Or even the IDEA of a "Greek". Methinks you are a bit ego and ethnocentric, my friend.

It happens to know that Greek language,has "roots" from other languages that preceded the Greek one.
