Perhaps you mean "how," since you cannot mean "why."

Greek presence in English is mostly found in artistic and scientific terminology. Many Greek words were borrowed by Latin, which had no artistic or scientific vocabulary of its own. Latin developed into French, which brought many Greek words to English. Of course many Greek words are directly borrowed into English, especially by members of learnèd professions.
