Did Julius Caesar Speak Greek?

Julius Caesar spoke Latin. He is also known for the excellence of his Latin prose, which is still read by students of Latin today. He would have delivered speechesand written in Latin but Latin was considered a second 'formal' language even then. Amongst friends and family he would have spoken a kind of lower, colloquial Latin more like modern Italian. Unfortunately, we know very little of this language (not surprising considering as it was almost entirely non-written) what we do know is mainly gathered from graffiti!

The language of Ancient Rome was Latin, however educated Romans spoke Greek, so amongst the patricians, Caesar would have spoken Greek.

(Brutus was not actually Gaius Iulius Caesar's son, Caesar used it poetically.)

When at war, Julius Caesar was known for his quick action. Although he planned things out before hand, he could also throw away the game plan, so to speak, and order quick last minute changes. He was also the first and probably the last Roman general to have centurions present at his planning meetings and to listen to their opinions.
