2019-09-26 19:18:20 UTC  

we just don't use it in every single word

2019-09-26 19:18:24 UTC  

as it's not necessary

2019-09-26 19:18:29 UTC  

Ah i see

2019-09-26 19:19:02 UTC  

just like the english banana

2019-09-26 19:19:18 UTC  

Well now that we're talking about Greek might as well say a cool origin for a word in common european languages

2019-09-26 19:19:58 UTC  

for multiple bananas it's μπανανες and one it's just simply μπανανα

2019-09-26 19:20:11 UTC  

pretty easy to comprehend I think

2019-09-26 19:20:52 UTC  

Ελεφας, ελεφαντος is the ancient Greek word for ivory, which then became elephant because of the use and the reputation the animal had through history

n = ν
b = μπ
v = β
a = α

2019-09-26 19:21:45 UTC  

t = τ
f = φ

2019-09-26 19:21:58 UTC  

some letters dont have a direct translation

2019-09-26 19:22:00 UTC

2019-09-26 19:24:32 UTC  

A load of common european etimologies come from Greek if you were wondering

2019-09-26 19:24:50 UTC  

And were spread by the Romans

2019-09-26 19:26:01 UTC  

Latin is essentially simplified ancient Greek, mixed with etruscan words and various words from ancient italic dialects

2019-09-26 19:33:02 UTC  

Consider that the vast majority of Italian words obviously come from latin, of which, the beauty of 8355 are originally Greek, being technically the foreign language that has influenced us the most @ΕΘΝΙΚH ΑΝΤΙΣΤΑΣΗ

2019-09-26 19:34:03 UTC  

Another fun fact about Italian: It has the same pronunciation system as Church Latin.

2019-09-26 19:34:12 UTC  

Epic!

2019-09-26 19:35:21 UTC  

Well, yeah. No need to specify church latin, the pronunciation is the same of historical latin @Deleted User according to the traditional teaching scheme

2019-09-26 19:35:54 UTC  

c is gay, k master race t.classical romans

2019-09-26 19:36:10 UTC  

Well, most say that classical Latin had a different pronunciation system than Church Latin.

2019-09-26 19:36:10 UTC  

Lmao no

2019-09-26 19:36:14 UTC  
2019-09-26 19:36:22 UTC  

That's an invention

2019-09-26 19:36:34 UTC  

Romans didn't pronounce it that way

2019-09-26 19:37:08 UTC  

We got ancient roman books saying c should be replaced as its still makes the same sound as another letter fam. and actually sardinian keeps the original pronounciation of the c(k)

2019-09-26 19:37:17 UTC  

@Deleted User that's what northern europeans say based on the influence their native language has mixed with latin

2019-09-26 19:37:38 UTC  

denying language change is cope.

2019-09-26 19:37:45 UTC  

Its like me saying Lithuanian is the same as old Prussian

2019-09-26 19:37:50 UTC  

What?

2019-09-26 19:37:53 UTC  

similiar sure but there are a lot of differences.
