   You could try, but it would be difficult.Greek is not an easy language where it is like Spanish, how some of the vocab is similar to english.Id say Greek is about 10x harder than spanish. Greek is not an easy language to learn how to read and write in either.

   Ive been speaking Greek my whole life ever since I was a toddler, and it is a lot easier to learn a language starting young. the older you are, the harder it is. Ive been speaking,reading,and writing in Greek from a young age because I went to Greek school, and now being 17, I speak the language well. If i started at this age i dont think i would learn it well, maybe not even at all. My parents spoke it to me when i was young so it was easier to pick up.

   Im not trying to discourage you or anything, but the earlier you start the better. It is still possible though. Greek is a really cool language and you wont regret learning it.

   Good luck

   I think that the younger you are the easier it is to learn a language. Start now!

   exactly, the younger you are the more brain cells you still have for learning language. after a certain age you start losing that ability, i think that age is like 8 or something. but it’s still easier to learn a language when you’re 14 than 30 or something.
