Greek Language Translation and Interpreting
ABC Translations offer a complete Greek language translation and interpreting service.
Greek has been spoken in the Balkan Peninsula since the 2nd millennium
BC. The earliest written evidence is found in the Linear B tablets in
the "Room of the Chariot Tablets", in Knossos, Crete, making
Greek one of the world's oldest recorded living languages. The later Greek
alphabet is unrelated to Linear B, and is derived from the Phoenician
alphabet; with minor modifications, it is still used today.
Modern Greek is spoken by about 12 million people – it is the
official language of Greece where it is spoken by about 99.5% of the population.
It is also, alongside Turkish, the official language of Cyprus. Because
of the membership of Greece and Cyprus in the European Union, Greek is
one of the 23 official languages of the EU. Greek is officially recognised
as a minority language in parts of Turkey, Italy and Albania, and there
are also Greek-speaking populations in Australia, Armenia, Germany, Canada,
the Russian Federation, the Ukraine, as well as other countries.
The UK has established communities of Greek speakers around the country,
many of whom retain strong links with Greece and Cyprus. There is, therefore,
a considerable need for translation, particularly of birth & marriage
certificates and property-related documentation, as well as interpreting
for court and social services.
