    We have an Arab Expression in Greek language that is Koulouvahata is a modern Greek expression meaning "up and down", e.g. "he did it koulouvahata", or "I found it koulouvahata". This expression came from the corresponding Arabic "koulouvahata" which means "all together one".

    I am Greek and I have traveled throughout the Middle East and Turkey, the Caucasus, North Africa, in every country I went to, people spoke to me in their language, thinking I was a local! Let's not forget that these countries were part of the Greco-Roman Commonwealth for 1000-1500 years, i.e. a large country without borders.

      @@abedbbb7083 Ancient Greek philosophers engaged in the earliest known forms of what is today recognized as a rational theoretical science, with the move towards a more rational understanding of nature which began at least since the Archaic Period (650-480 BCE) with the Presocratic school. Thales was the first known philosopher to use natural explanations, proclaiming that every event had a natural cause, even though he is known for saying "all things are full of gods" and sacrificed an ox when he discovered his theorem. Leucippus, went on to develop the theory of atomism - the idea that everything is composed entirely of various imperishable, indivisible elements called atoms. This was elaborated in great detail by Democritus.
      Towards the middle of the 5th century BCE, some of the components of a scientific tradition were already heavily established, even before Plato, who was an important contributor to this emerging tradition, thanks to the development of deductive reasoning, as propounded by his student, Aristotle. In Protagoras (318d-f), Plato mentioned the teaching of arithmetic, astronomy and geometry in schools. The philosophical ideas of this time were mostly freed from the constraints of everyday phenomena and common sense. This denial of reality as we experience it reached an extreme in Parmenides who argued that the world is one and that change and subdivision do not exist.
      In the 3rd and 4th centuries BCE, the Greek physicians Herophilos (335-280 BCE) and Erasistratus of Chios employed experiments to further their medical research; Erasistratus at one time repeatedly weighed a caged bird, and noted its weight loss between feeding times. Aristotle's inductive-deductive method used inductions from observations to infer general principles, deductions from those principles to check against further observations, and more cycles of induction and deduction to continue the advance of knowledge.

    Indeed Arabic borrowed many words directly from Greek, especially at the time of the Abbasids. Greek took some Arabic words mainly through Ottoman Turkish.
    At last as a small remark, the word أوقيانوس uqyaanuus is not used anymore in Arabic (in both Standard and Dialects), the word for ocean is محيط muHeeT.

      in reality Greek language begin to influence Arabic, way before Abbasid because the levant was already Greek in the Byzantine era when arabs used to do their commerce before islam so words like dirham from greek drakhma made its way to arabic in that time , but to be fair most borrowed vocabulary is in reality replacable by authentic Arabic words , Arabic is way more rich and has the ability to create new words for practically everything but the user's preference is what made the borrowed words stick arround and become arabized

      @ There is no such thing as Arabic language ! “Arabic” in reality is a mix of Aramaic and ancient Egyptian language , I don’t want to insult the Arabs but Arabic and Hebrew is just dialects of Aramaic with the only difference that “Arabic” as I said before have a huge influence from ancient Egyptian language if you hear carefully Aramaic is like you hearing Arabic and Hebrew at the same time so the Separation of Aramaic tribes to different places create two different dialects of Aramaic!

    I’ve always wondered why names like Marcus and George are so common in Lebanon, especially since they’re not as widespread in other Middle Eastern countries. Even with biblical names, people in Lebanon seem to go for the Latin or Greek versions, like David or Joseph, instead of the Semitic ones like Dawid or Yosef. Is it because of Lebanon’s historical ties to Greco-Roman culture and early Christianity, or is it more about the influence of French colonialism?

      Lebanon in particular has a large Maronite community that is in full communion with the Roman Catholic church, hence the connection with Latin. Greek and Aramaic were both widespread languages around the world so they influenced eachother both directly and by proxy through trade with other countries so there you have the semitic and greek connection. Add to that the French influence which was before the French Mandate. French missionaries were around the Levant, North Africa and the world bringing schools, so the educated populations from morocco all the way to russia spoke or were exposed to French. The English versions come from the recent widespread American culture, so that explains the English names. This doesn’t happen in alot of countries where 3 completely different language families are spoken in one country: arabic, french and english.

      Ωκεανός is Greek. It was the God of the water and open sea. Son of Uranos and Rea. Way later, his name was used to describe large seas between continents.
      Κανόνας just means rules.

    "Γένος" is cognate with "genus", and also with "kind".
    Another Greek word from PIE that was borrowed into Arabic is "ζεῦγος" -> "زوج". This has cognates in Hebrew and Aramaic. If you try to reconstruct a Semitic root, you get *zawgu, but the last common ancestor of those languages was spoken before Abraham (who started the split of Hebrew and Phoenician), and /j/ didn't turn into /z/ in Greek until later (it's cognate with "yoke").

    Most of these words passed from Arabic to Turkish, then to Rum language, or from Turkish to Arabic and Rum language both. Rum language is not language of Socrates. Socrates is Greek, but these are Rum.

      Rum is pure Greek from Socrates until today, they change a lot in a language but it is the same language. Today the Greeks can easily understand the language at least from the 1st century BC as for the language of Socrates they understand the topic of discussion.

      The word Rum I assume it's the word you use to describe Greek whenever you feel insecure about borrowing Greek culture or words?
      Btw as a Greek I can guarantee you I can translate ancient greek I might not know a word or two it's the opposite of what you said.
