Best Answer

If you mean to ask, "Are there root words from Greek or Roman anicent mythology?" then, yes. A massive amount of names, phrases, and English grammatical terms are derived from Greek or Roman mythology. For example, the name Sophia or Phillip or any other name with the "PH" in it is Greek. Or the phrase, "my Achilles Heel" actually orginated from the Trojan War hero, Achilles. Legend has it that Achilles was dipped into the River Styx by his heel to become immortal, but since his heel was left undipped it was the only immortal part of him. His only weakness. Or say the word apostrophe. We see the "PH" combo so it is, in fact, derived from Greek.
