It is interesting to use Grimm's laws of Consonant change and see the relationship between Hebrew and the Indo-European Languages, but that is another subject.) The Greek language spoken today is derived from Koine Greek developed by Alexander the Great, a Greek Emperor. He standardized Greek grammar and created a language that was spoken throughout the Eastern Mediterranean world.
