The Greek at the end is actually quite easy to understand, he directly speaks to us from almost two thousand years ago, and still sounds like someone we met today.
You mean it sounds like modern greek???
I was waiting for the Greek guy 😂😂😂
Ha ha!
It's quite wrong though. They used several modern Greek vowels instead of the ancient Greek values. That did make it easier to understand as a modern Greek speaker, but it really is not accurate.
😁😁😁
Small correction on Latin, it would be more correct to use a returned pronunciation of Latin (classical pronunciation), while that of the video is the ecclesiastical pronunciation, which is not wrong, but the classical pronunciation would be more correct since we are talking about ancient languages
The one in the video is both ecclesiastical and classical mixed up🫤
A me pare che la pronuncia latina fosse più morbida non così zoppicante. È chiaro che a parlarlo non è una persona umana ma una voce robotica!
@@thebat729 Plus pauses made in some weird places (like AFTER "sed")
Classical Latin never pronounced "v" as a modern v it would have sounded like W. Only church Latin pronounced it like a modern V. Similarly in Classical Latin "C" was hard as in Cat not soft as in church Latin.
@@wattyler2994 Yes, that's what I mean
Most of the the times, I wished that I was still living in a world without technology, but then, I come across a video like this and I am thankful to the technology.
but they still had technology back then, It was just ancient technology
3:50 … was my favorite… almost made me tear up tbh … Ik no one really knows exactly how the Ancient Egyptians spoke… but ugh that sounded so close I bet… I love Egypt. As a big Egyptologist … it was so beautiful to hear.
It's impossible to know for sure, but Coptic is similar enough that linguists have been able to make reasonable guesses by tracing the language's trends back in time.
@@urbannsquirrelthe reconstruction presented in this video is based on that premise
There's a whole page on Wikipedia dedicated to changes in pronunciation through time, and even if it is largely imprecise, with enough critical thinking and IPA knowledge, you should be able to pull off a decent egyptian accent. I myself am working on writting a report summarising and precising the various rules and specific phonemes of Middle Egyptian (which is considered the Classical period of Ancient Egypt)
J'ai bcp aimé l'égyptien aussi si doux à l'oreille et le latin qui m'a permis de comprendre un peu

Ancient north american languages and also like Algonquin languages, Chatah, Navajo would be so boss!!! Really enjoyed this video!!
If you are interested, as an Hebrew speaker I can basically translate the Phonecian:
It appears that the text was wrriten on a royal grave, he said that his name is Tabnit, a priest of the godess Ashtart and the son of the king of Sidon - Eshmun'azar. He lays in this coffin and he warns anyone that will try to open this coffin not to do so and upset him and the godess Ashera, and if they would, some very very unpleasent things will happen to them lol
Can you understand the Accadian too?
@@Kinotaurus I could understand some similar words but not whole sentences unfortunatly
A little correction: in the first time I wrote the godess Ashtart, and in the second time Ashera. I was confused, it's Ashtart in both times.
Btw, I couldn't understand all the last sentences in which he says what the godess Ashtart will do to the one who opens the coffin, but what I think I understood is: "you won't have any offsprings in this life under the sun"

@@PedroMachadoPTI bet you are enjoying it more this time around.
The ancient Greek that is heard is actually a dialect that prevailed during the Hellenistic period (323 BC-300 AC) and was called «Koine» (κοινή - common). Τhis dialect is very close and similar to modern Greek and therefore easily understood by modern Greeks.
The excerpt is the beginning of the Gospel of John which had been translated into koine by the Septuagint in Alexandria. It would be interesting if ancient Greek included the Attic or the Ionian dialects, in which the masterpieces of the Greek philosophers were written. Also, the pronunciation is very bad, like an Englishman trying to speak Greek or me English
Correction: The gospel of John was originally written in the Greek language (Koine). The Septuagint translated only the old testament texts into koine.
The Language of the Last 7 Books of the Old Testament and the Entire New Testament 📖🇬🇷 It is a Holy language. ☦️
The Romans described the Greeks they knew as speaking in a "singing tone." Should this Greek have been more melodic & mellifluous?
Καλά σαν ν ακούμε νέα ελληνικά με ξενική προφορά.μονο Έλληνας θα μπορούσε να τα διαβάσει σωστα
Show off! ☺️
That explains how I clearly understhood. Back at school we had focused on older dialects, especially the Attican, before the hellenistic period, which was a pain in my butt (Im a thessalonian btw :), double the reason)
Gorgeous idea to propose this video on ancient languages !
Congratulations for this amazing work and waiting for another languages 🙏✨!
It is extremely interesting to hear these ancient languages. It's challenging to say the least. Thank you
As a spanish speaker, of all these antique languages, the most comprehensible for me was Latin

@@greekwarrior5373How?
I watched a program about Antony and Cleopatra a few years ago and it was wonderful to hear the actors playing Antony and Cleopatra speaking to each other in ancient Greek - we forget that Cleopatra was for all intents and purposes Greek and that Greek was always the language of the eastern part of the Roman empire.
She was Makedonian, there's a difference. Imagine as today's Canadian vs Americans or English vs Scots.
@poonczey Still no difference
Ancient Macedonia was part of the Greek world -on the periphery but still part of it -Greece was not one country then but consisted of numerous independent states -some democracies like Athens and some kingdoms like Macedonia-so if someone was an Athenian or an Ionian was he/she not Greek?@@poonczey
Yes, Cleopatra was from the lineage of macedonians Ptolemaios, thus descendants from Alexander the great
thanks to Netflix we all know that Cleopatra was black.
She probably spoke Zulu click sounds
These videos are so fascinating. Please do more ancient languages, and maybe some of the more obscure modern languages.
yes, i agree.... also maybe valarian...
that's really amazing, seems like Ai restored ancient people with narrations in their languages. Thank you for sharing
As Hebrew speaker I understand Phoenician (about 70%)! Both (Hebrew and Phoenician) are dialects of Canaanite language!

Thank you very much, it's so interesting listening those languages from the past! Wonderful idea!
Ancient history is my favorite so this video is magical to me. It literally moved my spirit to hear the words and languages of those that have long since died. ❤
I love studying ancient history because it allows me to connect with my ancestors in a way that more modern history lacks for me, personally.
We are still here as descendants of Egyptians, Romans, Greeks, Phoenicians etc.
I can't comment on any of the languages other than 1st century AD Hellenistic common language. The sound of Greek we heard was definitely from some foreign Western European who has just started learning Greek and is pronouncing it syllabically. If you want to hear the sound of this text in a beautiful flowing Greek language you can visit today a Greek Orthodox church where the sound of it has been preserved unadulterated. We will have our doubts about the other languages that today are probably extinct!!
Thank you for your comment. The Latin here is also really far from being ancient.
Totally agree . Maybe i can understand about the diphthongs maybe but the way a western european probably an English speaker is reading Greek it is a jok .
Thanks 👍♥️🙏
@@toolanathema In my opinion it would sound closer to the ancient pronunciation of the text if read by a modern Greek, who certainly retains after 2,000 years the same pronunciation as his ancestors. Fluent pronunciation makes all the difference. In the video the pronunciation is problematic!! It's like a Greek trying to pronounce a Victorian English text with a Greek accent. Queen Victoria would not be thrilled with the result!!!
Latin didn't go extinct like the others either, the language was still the language of the catholic church when each of the dialects of Latin broke off into the romance languages today, so pronunciation was standardised in the 8th to 9th Century CE to the ecclesiastical pronunciation, which was used quite commonly up until about the mid 19th century BC
Πόσο εθνικά υπερήφανος νοιώθω όταν διατειρείται μέχρι σήμερα η ενιαία Ελληνική γλώσσα!
I’m so glad you included Sanskrit!! I love it
Sumerian sounds strikingly telegraphic to my ears, very clear, succinct and to the point, although I don't understand a word.
I believe the Sumerian language was the first
It's also parsed weirdly. It's as if I was. Talking to you like. This instead. Of normally.
I highly doubt it was full of autotune like this video. None of this sounds human.
@@coolname2629 Exactly, none of this sounds like a real human language. Latin does not sound like Italian or Sardinian at all, Greek like Modern Greek, Sanskrit like Hindi or Urdu. Makes you wonder.
The pronunciation of all languages was computerised. An algorithmic and not natural flowing pronunciation.
Very interesting. It would be nice to see the the English translation to know the meaning of the texts. Also it would be nice to hear some ancient women.
It seems as though each speaker is speaking about their gods and goddesses as key words in the text relate to a name of a god or goddess.
yes, I don't know why these AIs are only done in male voices and figures.
The Greek one was the beginning of the Gospel of John.. from the Bible.
@@v4v777Same as the Latin one.
As a speaker of East Texan and some Southwest Louisiana, I understood 43% of ancient Latin
Amazing video, deserve more parts.
So beautiful to hear these wonderful words, even though I had never EVER heard of some of the languages spoken.
Sanskrit seemed 100% clear and hasn't changed a bit from what I learnt in high school.
Bcz in school we learn classical Sanskrit not vedic. Vedic Sanskrit you won't understand much of it, for instance try to read Rigveda and then any Puranas, you'll find purana as more easily understandable while veda be much more difficult
Sanskrit cannot change as it is a constructed theoretical language like Esperanto (with the difference that Sanskrit tried its best to include every difficulty of the various Indian languages they wanted to coalesce in it, whereas Esperanto is a simplification of a little bit of every European language).
@@MrMirville It is not a theoretical language. It is the ancestor of all Indian languages in the North. All of Hindi, Bengali, Gujarati and Punjabi is evolved from Sanskirt. Now go somewhere else and argue that the earth is flat. You sound totally ignorant and a troll.
@@MrMirville That'd be inaccurate, it's not a conlang, referring it in that manner would be bad linguistics. Daksiputra Panini, Bhartrhari and other grammarians did not attempt to coalesce various Indian tongues when he ended up creating what we call Classical Sanskrit or Paniniyan Sanskrit. What he did was to introduce Grammatical reforms and rules to formalize a dying natural language whose regional dialects had begun turning into Independent languages, which resulted in it freezing from further natural development as it turned into a language of liturgy and the intellectual classes.
If anything, Classical Sanskrit is less morphologically complex than Vedic Sanskrit.
You could argue that Classical Sanskrit happens to be a very formalized natural language that appears constructed, seeing how it's direction was significantly influenced by the pronouncements of grammarians.
@@anirudh177 I have caricatured my point a little bit : actually they tried to make all texts they considered sacred readable by the rules they tried to formulate and edict, even though these sacred texts might actually come from dialects distant from each other : Sanskrit has integrated undeniably even "non-Aryan" root words, grammatical forms like the "absolutive" (very characteristic of Tamil), and sounds like the lingual consonants that don't exist anywhere else in the Indo-European world but are the most prevalent in Tamil. But the fact is that Sanskrit is easier to learn if you learn it like if it were a conlang, precisely because it has more regularity in its numerous noun and verb forms. Sanskrit despite having sacred texts written in a very inflexional language like most Slavic languages still are, has by itself more the characteristics of an agglutinative language like Turkish or Esperanto, especially if you read rather technical manuals of yoga or astrology : everything is composed of nominal sentences made of huge compounds. One proof of its composite nature is the presence of so many past tenses that more or less mean the same thing (namely the equivalent of a simple ptreterit like the English one).
Outstanding! Thank you so much for this magnificent production, which allowed me (a lover of antiquity) to listen to the (approximate) sounds of some of my favorite vernaculars, namely Sumerian, Akkadian, Hittite, and Egyptian. BRAVO!
Suggestion: What about Elamite, Canaanite, and the Assyrian version of Akkadian (your sample is clearly Babylonian since it mentions their beloved god Marduk)? Subscribed.
P.S. The term "Assyria" derives from Greek. The Assyrians called their nation "Aššur" and themselves "the men of Aššur," both of which are the same as their chief deity "Aššur."
Thanks!
Amazing to listen ... I'm an instant fan. Love ancient world history! I think this should used for teaching children history and or language possibly because I believe it would draw them more into it... like a next level kind of visual amd audible learning.

❗I cannot express how much I love and appreciate this ! Often throughout my life, I've wished I could hear these languages spoken. Thank you🙏

Bravo 👏, thanks to you we plundge into History.
Absolutely fascinating!
Many, many, many years ago when I was an undergraduate I took a course on Italian culture. We had to select some type of "project" to present at the end of the semester. I chose to research and write my paper (turned out to be 150 pages) on "The Etruscans."
A few years later I traveled to Italy and actually got to see two Etruscan tombs, and I visited museums that featured Etruscan pottery and statuary artifacts. The Etruscans came alive for me when I listened to the words in the video. It's one thing to read about, research, and then write on a culture, group or nation, but it's another thing to hear an ancient language brought to life and imagine people who used that language on a daily basis. Good video!
I am italian, from the lands of the Etruscans. We have absolutely no proofs about their pronunciation. We can hardly read and understand their language. The actor of the video looks as a man from northern Europe while the Etruscans were a Mediterranean people. We can find better their heritage in their way of life, food, position of woman in society, craftwork and art.
@@mauriziodesanctis1159 No, Etruscans were Turkish.
@@greekwarrior5373 Oh, you are the Turkish 🦃 cockroach who pretends to be Greek. How is the Earthquake doing, Ogluzguzkhan?
As the Italian said, we have no way to know how they sounded like. The sounds portrayed here might as well be pure fantasy.
@@greekwarrior5373 Recent studies have found the Etruscans were an indigenous people from the area. For years archeologists and historians believed the Etruscans were somehow related to the Turkish peoples.
Now they are saying "no." Sometimes there's probably more accuracy in just throwing a coin and seeing which side comes up first........
It was interesting to hear Sanskrit, an ancient Indian language. A lot of people probably don’t realize that the word “karma” is Sanskrit.
Sanskrit is still actively used today as the religious language of many South Asian traditions
Maya,chakra,karm,samsara, Aryan and yog are famous Sanskrit words.
Several Sanskrit god names like indra,ashur are also famous
Many mantras in easterm Buddhist traditions are in Sanskrit.
Amazing!! I live in Mexico and this men leave me in lost history centuries!!

I also understood some of the Akkadian
That is, the phonecians are definitely the anscestors of the hebrews, imagine how rebellious abraham was in his day by refusing to sacrifice his son to Ba'al
@@Kyle-uz1rp brother language not ancestor
@@Kyle-uz1rp it's because Phoenician and hebrew are both dialects of cnaanite which makes them sister languages while arabic is more of a cousin language because herew and Phoenician are western Semitic and Arabic is southern Semitic
keeep dreaming@@Kyle-uz1rp
@@Kyle-uz1rp Officially, it was the Jewish god Yahu/El who demanded this sacrifice and then had second thoughts. But you are definitely not wrong.
Fun fact 1: Ba'al just means Lord, and was sometimes used in this sense in reference to the Jewish god. But it was also used as the name of a specific god of thunder and war. The Jewish god was the result of a merger of El, creator of the universe and father of all other gods, and Yahu, a god of thunder and war. El had been the main god of Israel=Samaria (northern kingdom, capital Shechem), and Yahu of Judah (southern kingdom, capital Jerusalem). Some of the most important parts of the Jewish Bible were forged out of northern and southern texts that came from a time of conflict between the two kingdoms and vehemently contradicted each other. So in a sense it would be as correct to say that Ba'al = Yahu as it is to say that the Jews have only a single god.
Fun fact 2: The fact that there are prohibitions against human sacrifice in the Jewish Bible indicates that this was a practice that existed at the time and that the texts wanted to stop. The purpose of the Abraham story was probably to give a justification for the new prohibition. So clearly humans were sacrificed to Yahu/El. Some scholars believe that (only) in this context Yahu/El was referred to with the honorific 'Molokh'. The passages referring to this were later reinterpreted as being about a different god with this name.
Absolutely fantastic and marvelous, thank you!
WOW! This was cool. I just loved to hear Sanskrit, as someone who has studied it - albeit as an eager amateur. With help from the text and perhaps also a limited knowledge in Hindi I could actually understand at least some of the words!
Great job - very entertaining indeed.
Excelente ! El mejor video que he visto sobre el tema...
Fascinating! Thank you very much for this educational video which brings our ancestors closer to us!
Very Amazing work, congratulations.
So fascinating. Thank you.
Both the “Ancient Greek” and the Latin reciting the beginning of John’s gospel. In fact the Greek of New Testament times had evolved a great deal from that of 5th C BCE Athens and even more so from that of “Homeric” Greek. The Latin was interesting-pronouncing “v” as in modern English. Many believe it was more like “w.” Anyway, well done generally! I find it quite moving to hear these long dead voices from the past.
V was supposedly pronounced like a W and all C's were pronounced as a hard C or K
Seems like all these languages are reciting the same text… „In the beginning there was the Word.”
Beautiful and enlightening!
Thank you!
For future videos, it would be great if you could add English translations in the closed captioning.
Absolutely fascinating.
Very cool!! Thank you for sharing
Love these. I'd love to be able to read more information and histroy about the language on the side while hearing it.
Beautifully done. I hope there’s more
Great video. Good representation of ancient dialect and peoples. These are many of our ancestors and we appreciate you representing them as accurate in clothing, speech, and image as possible. Honestly many of these languages were probably Semitic in origin and sound the same besides Latin
Thank you for the opportunity to imagine how the ancient languages might have sounded.
Fabulous. Just a first impression: Latin and Hittite struck me as the most beautiful. I liked the Greek and Phoenician, Egyptian and Etruscan also. Hearing this makes me feel closer to the distant Past: all those ancient peoples were just normal, relatively-intelligent folks like us. They could be our best friend or a bad mother-in-law. if we lived back then.
I KNOW Ltin from church as a catholic
Línguas belas e fantásticas, mas fiquei fascinado com o fato de conseguir entender boa parte do Latim.
If you know any of the roman languages, it's logical that you understand parts of it. But also his pronounciation is mostly modern here. Based on italian. Original latin sounded different.
Português vem do latin :v
O nosso Português tosco é derivado do latim, assim como o Espanhol, o Italiano e Francês e outras mais. Por isso somos chamados de latino-americanos ou sul-americanos. No passado, latim era obrigatório nas escolas, hoje somente nos seminários nos cursos de Teologia.

Very well produced and very interesting ! 😊
Not latin
Apasionante tener este documento y pensar que, de hacerlo viajar a través del tiempo, aquellos humanos entenderían algo. Apasionante la diversidad de construcciones fonéticas en que la humanidad se ha comunicado.
I would love to have subtitles for both the original speech and the translation in English.
That would have been rad.
This idea definietly much more better and cool than this way
Aye. I have no idea what they're speaking about. I mean, this is already great, but knowing what they say would be icing on the cake.
I loved this!
Honestly, it’s a fun video. The problem is that in many languages sounds like š and s with a dot are simply not pronounced, and that’s how Sidon became Idon in your rendition of Phoenician. Latin in “gn” cluster sounds a lot like Italian 😅 Whereas Ancient Greek sometimes has sounds alike Modern Greek that really shouldn’t be there before the Middle Ages Greek.
I wonder what were the sources y’all used to create their speech, because as far as I can tell most recited religious texts. For instance, an Egyptian was reciting an offering formula, which was very interesting to hear, but I would maybe go for something more colloquial like Letters of Heqanakht. Same goes for a Roman who recited the Bible, I would have just given him to read Suetonius - that’d be perfect 😂
Because the "gn" cluster did sound like Italian during Imperial times. Κοινη Greek was closer to Modern Greek than to Attic, however here it does not sound like Modern Greek, it barely sounds like a real language.
Romans were the ones who made the Catholic Bible, so there is no issue with them reciting the Bible.
yes, the classical "an offering given by the king..." The Latin sounded ecclesiastical, why not using classical?
@@timeup2549 original language of new testament books is koine greek (but some parts not giving too much sense can be deciphered with a knowledge of aramaic)
Vulgate is late 4th century translation, approx. 250 years after the "original" text was kinda of stabilised, so Romans or Jerome or whoever don't really "made" it, they only translated it and as we already know, not very well
and of course it was far from classical latin back then
@@tulenik71 You are correct I believe. But how does that relate to what I said?
@@timeup2549 you told "Romans made catholic bible" but it was "made" 200 years (+/-) before. Mostly somewhere in the east part of Mediterannean and in different language. Thus said, Romans had very little to do with it.
Beautiful.
Congrats! Tremendous job!
Τα ελληνικά αν και κατανοητά έχουν μια περίεργη προφορά, καμία ΑΙ δεν είναι σε θέση να αποδώσει τη σωστή προφορά.
τα διάβασε ένας δυτικοευρωπαίος συλλαβίζοντας....χαχαχα
Απολύτως κατανοητά αλλά διαφοροποιείται η προφορά σε μερικά σύμφωνα.
Ελληνικα με αραβική προφορά
The Latin was from the first chapter of John in the New Testament! ❤ I recognised it immediately!
le grec aussi
@@patrickandries7412 I did wonder about that but I wasn't sure.
The Greek, too
All are beautiful, I found Latin the easiest to comprehend in a small way... Very interesting!
The video sounds is great to 💤 sleep, I ❤ed them.
As a Indo-aryan Hindu, i could understand Sanskrit, the terms and some part of grammar gives it away. It is interesting to note, i have never learnt Sanskrit but we use Sanskrit mantras for worship daily. Also, its surprising to note, i could understand some Avestan, considering i have never heard about this language or we are not remotely related to any other language, culturally, ideologically or linguistically. Plus, since i know Kannada as well( a Dravidian language, totally different family of language) i would like to see oldest Dravidian languages( Old Tamil, Old Kannada or even Old Telugu).
It was classical Sanskrit that's why ,if there could've vedic Sanskrit, you probably wouldn't understand 75% of it😊
Same like Sanskrit
Halegannada also beautiful ❤
हाँ मैं भी
It's because Avestan is an Iranian language. Both are sister languages that derived from indo european language which was used by the Aryan migrators who settled in Iran and India.
Also Avestan is grammatically closer to vedic Sanskrit. That's why it's easier for you to understand it than an Iranian like me. I could only understand a couple of words
It was amazing.Such a pity that these languages are not used any more.
Latin is still used in Vatican City. But of course it's quite different than the ancient latin
There are plenty of languages in this video that are still used and learned today. Such as Sanskrit in indias schools
Классный проект! Продолжайте в том же духе!
Thanx. That's beautiful
Very well done, and I would love to see how far back a language can be traced.
Languages can be connected up to about 8000 years ago. Beyond that, it becomes extremely difficult or impossible to differentiate between random chance and an actual relatiuonship. Ex: Indo-European (ancestor to English, Hindi, ect...), Uralic (Hungarian, Estonian, ect...) and Tupian (Tupi, Guarani, ect...) are about 5000 years old, Algic (Cree, Obijwe, ect...) is about 7000 years old, and Austroasiatic (Vietnamese, Khmer, ect...) is about 4500 years old.
The only family to break this is Afroasiatic (Arabic, Hausa, ect...) which is, at the low end, 12000 years old.
But you guys forget to mention Ancient living language Tamil ❤ தமிழ் ( India 🇮🇳) , Tamil was the first to be classified as a classical language of India. Dravidian language natively spoken by the Tamil people of South Asia. Tamil is an official language of the Indian state of Tamil Nadu, the sovereign nations of Sri Lanka and Singapore,[9][5] and the Indian Union territory of Puducherry, It is also spoken by the Tamil diaspora found in many countries, including Malaysia, Myanmar, South Africa, United Kingdom, United States, Canada, Australia and Mauritius
Uh...okay wikipedia
@@rohanrodrigues7115 so what ?
Ariyan peoples want to destroy our Dravidian history. Simple.....
am ashamed that a 600 bc year younger langauge sanskrit has a place in the video but we wont ..500bc🫤🫤
@@kavirio3849Sanskrit is the oldest language in the world what nonsense are you saying? Go google how old is sanskrit there are traces of it for about 7000 years. Who told you Sanskrit is 600? 😂
I'd love to see Biblical Hebrew on here too, I want to see how it's changed from my own family's speech. And Aramaic too. Akkadian sounds almost similar.
As an Israeli, I could understand the Phoenician one, so Phoenician and Hebrew are pretty similar
Biblical Hebrew is really similar to Modern Hebrew. I have no trouble understanding it as I speak modern Ivrit /Hebrew. I can also understand some Aramaic
@@lioraz3701 I knew the first part but didn't know it could help with Aramaic!!
Hittite and Phoenician languages somehow touched my heart.
The language the last guy was speaking sounds very much like modern English.
i can speak English and i understood everything that he said
😂
I can read modern Greek and really wish I could read ancient Greek.
So enjoyed the Greek 👏👏👏
The text on the video isn't an ancient Greek text though, it's a . Modern Greek and ancient Greek alphabets are the same exactly. Reading out loud the text is really easy too, if you know some modern Greek.
@dali,
In which case my Greek must not be as good as I thought,or others have said ! 🤔😏
The ancient greek text is the first chapter of the Gospel of John.
It's not ancient Greek but medieval Greek, the language spoken by the Byzantines. Ancient Greek is much harder to understand.
@@Kav82a Byzantines spoke German.
