Yes... unfortunately :? :(

But, someone go to Marseille?? :P In Greek, I bielieve Marseille is said Massilia ;) I think, some Greek know this town... no? It was a town founded by the Greek at the Antiquity. ;)

See you ;)

PS : I stay in my home during all the holidays. I will pass on your TeamSpeak channel to meet any HAF members. :) But, it's necessary that I would be ready... because my oral English is very very poor... espacially, because of my accent :roll: :oops: :P

Nope, it was first founded by Greeks, about five hundred years B.C. , as Famas stated it. It became a Roman harbour much later, when the Roman culture spread to the North of Italy and the South of France and Spain. :wink:

In our school we have some lessons about Greek History... But, it's just about Athens' Empire and the Greece at the Antiquity ;)

We learn many things about Greek antiquity, and the Bizantine Empire, but the history of Greece in the past four hundred years is seldom studied :? . What we know about modern Greece was usually not learned at school.

Dear friend Famas,
I heard that in France young students have the opportunity to study Greek. In fact there was a contest on Greek speaking knowledge throughout France and the winning kids (about 50) have visited prime Minister of Greece, in Athens. That happened about 2 weeks ago. I think your state earned my respect.
:D

Hi ;) It's cool ;)

The French language is composed from Latin, but some French words are composed from the Greek. The Greek language isn't an obligatory language to learn, but, if we want, I believe that we can learn the Greek because it's an falcutative option just like Latin ;) :) And, in France, especially in South of France, we have some legacy of Greek, then Roman... I remember, I had visited a museum in Massilia about the Greek's art at the antiquity. There is in this museum Greek's ans Roman's jars :) Sometimes, Jars are founded in the Mediterranean Sea, close to the coasts of Massilia. ;)

But, I have a question : The Greek who is speaking nowadays, it's the same who was speaking in the Antiquity?

And, an other thing, I'm realizing, I started HS... I'm sorry :oops:

EDIT : HS mean "Hors Sujet" in French... And, in English, I believe that is saying "Except subject" ;)

Well it's kind alike the situation with Latin and the languages that came from it. In the same way, Modern Greek aren't exactly the same with ancient Greek. Nevertheless, in modern Greek you can find almost all the root-words of the ancient one.

I think I should be sorry too, to my admin for continuing the off-topic, but it's always interesting having this conversation about antiquity!
:oops: :oops:
