    Greek is an independent branch of the Indo-European family of languages, while Persian belongs to the Western Iranian branch. Greek has a written record of over 3,000 years, easily making it the oldest documented Indo-European language. The Greek alphabet, originating from the Phoenician script, was the basis of numerous other scripts, such as Latin, Cyrillic, Coptic, Gothic, and Armenian. The Greek language has virtually impacted other languages in every corner of the world, being an important component of Western civilization, the Christian religion, and the language of some of the fundamental texts of science, astronomy, and mathematics. The Greek language today holds official status in Greece and Cyprus, and is recognized as a minority language in Albania, Armenia, Hungary, Italy, Romania, and Ukraine.
    The Persian language (Farsi) is also an ancient language which has had a huge amount of impact on other languages and cultures, mainly the Middle East, as well as Central and South Asia. Classified as one of the Western Iranian languages, Persian holds official status is Iran, Afghanistan, and Tajikistan. Persian has strongly influenced many different languages, including numerous Turkic languages, as well as well as Armenian, Georgian, and many languages in the Indian subcontinent. Persian has a long history of literature and it was notable for being the first language in the Muslim world to break through Arabic's monopoly on writing. The Persian language has also influenced the Arabic language, although the impact of Arabic on Persian has been higher. But the influence of Persian in the Muslim world has been strong since the early days of Islam. It was even established as a court tradition instead of Arabic under many ruling Muslim dynasties.
    Greeks and Persians have had a long history of contact, dating back to the antiquity when the Persian Empire had control over the modern-day Greece, which they would eventually lose during the Greco-Persian wars. The Persians and Greeks would become enemies and later establish a positive relation since Alexander the Great admired Persian culture and aimed to create a mixture of Greek and Persian culture.

      Parysatis is the third word in Xenophon's work "Cyrus' expedition", when he begins with the phrase: "of Darius and Parysatis came two sons : Artaxerxis and Cyrus." the anc. Greeks were obsessed with the Persians in the classical Era, just as they were obsessed with the Egyptians during the archaic Era. Speaks volumes as to how much admiration and fear they had of them.

      When I spoke of fear, I meant that they were cautious about them, after all the Persians invaded Greece with the task of conquering it. Greek authors say that many Greek individuals immigrated to Babylon, to make a fortune working as warriors or strategists for the great King. Xenophon had to escape Persia after Cyrus' death. But the Greeks feared the Persians and that is why they raised multiple revolts against them in Asia minor, that is why they studied them closely, and finally why Alexander III (the great) of Macedon campaigned successfully against the great King.

      +Massi We Greeks have deep respect for the Iranian nation which hails from the depths of history just like us. We have also our historical texts even from those times of huge confrontations (Greek-Persian Wars of 5th-4th century BC as well as Roman-Sassanid Wars of 6th-7th century AD) and our ancestors even if writing about "the Persian enemy" they still held Persians in great respect as a civilized nation. Persians too, we know, had expressed similar opinions, e.g. Cyprus the Younger was an admirer of Greek culture and the first Parthian high king actually added the title "Philhellene" to his full signature name. Beyond history, we often meet up with Iranians anywhere in the world and we keep getting the same experience : civilized, ultra-cultured people with deep education and a way of being not far away from ours.

As an archaeologist, I LOVE the Achaemenid period and am often far more interested in it than classical Greece--it's lovely to learn something different and Iranian history is so rich--throughout the centuries!

In 1944 after the World War Serbia is back as one part who is now Macedonia. Greece did the biggest genocide to Macedonian people 2 000 000 was killed , assimilated and vanish.

Latin spread during Roman empire and affect all the other languages which most of them didn't have an alphabet so they adopt the Latin way of writing. Some languages change almost completely English was one of them some others kept their natural sound (like German) and some other add a few words and grammar rules which didn't affect the language a lot. I don't know how Malley look like Greek and Persian it probably have to do with Persian history they are closer to them. 🙂You can find some clear Greek words which doesn't came from latin those are word we use for terms that came from ancient Greek for example dymocracy the word you said Earlier.

      You shouldn't think that :) Greeks and Persians are very very close, like good friends. That's how i feel at least. I feel the same with Egyptians, Syrians and Lebanese. When Greeks fought each other and some of them were expelled from their city, they used to go to the Persian king to seek refuge and he accepted them. Also when Greeks wanted information about many things, they used to go to Egypt to consult the Egyptian scholars and priests. 3.000+ years of history can't let us be anything but good friends.

      Ancient Greeks and Persians were respectively polytheistic pagans and Zoroastrian idealists while the Greeks and Persians today both belong to monotheistic Abrahamic faiths so on some ways the cultures are closer now then they were then, but people only like to emphasize the differences.
