Greek (Modern)

Greek (Modern) is natively spoken by about 11 million people, primarily in Greece and Cyprus, with communities worldwide due to the historical Greek diaspora. It is a pillar of Greek cultural identity, known for its ancient history, philosophy, and contributions to Western civilization. Written in the Greek alphabet, Greek grammar features a free word order, a highly inflected system with cases for nouns, and a complex verb conjugation system that denotes tense, mood, and voice.
