kaliteri mitera (καλύτερη μητέρα)
When Christianity was introduced, the English language changed. English got new words from Latin, Greek, and Hebrew Church spoke Latin. The New Testaments of The Bible were written in Greek and the Old Testaments were written in Hebrew.
No. They Greek language uses a different alphabet than English.

Phonetically. Since the alphabet doesn't translate, you have to do it by the sounds of the words. Anyone who speaks Greek can sound out your words and understand what you meant. Katalavenies? (Phonetic Greek for "Do you understand?") For some more details on this, see the link, below.

Some Greek vocabulary words that are used in English writing are kudos, phobia, genesis, and dogma. The Greek language has had a strong impact on the English language.
English has thousands of Greek words. Here are a few: telegraph telephone dinosaur philospophy chemistry physics psychology zealot
εμπιστοσύνη = affiance, confidence, trust (empistosyni) - -inspiration = έμπνευση (empnefsi)
Graphis.... although the spelling of Greek words in English is rather subjective.
Lots of them. At least a quarter of English words derive from Greek. Anything from regicide to philosophy.
Perhaps you mean "how," since you cannot mean "why." There are many Greek words in English, but English really "comes" from the Germanic branch of the Indo-European family of languages, with a major admixture of Norman French vocabulary and grammar. 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.
