My sister is going there for a week this summer, and she doesn't know any Greek. Not even hello, thanks, etc. She is going to go to the mostly tourist sites like Athens, so do they speak some English there? Also, she wants to know if it is hard to learn basic Greek. Just simple/everyday terms that would help her communicate
Thanks!

I'm moving out to live in Athens with my partner (who is greek) in January next year and Will need to look for a Job. I'm a Cardiac nurse working in the UK at present and hopefully will be learning Greek once I move. I tired to contact the embassy in Greece regarding work but I did not find it very useful.
Right now I know a little Greek, but no where enough to even try for Greek speaking job.
Does anyone know what type of work (if any) that I might be able to get in Athens that requires English only?
Maybe private nursing jobs, ex- pat hospitals? I really don't Even know where to start looking for such jobs.
I've been told you can get greek news papers in English but I've not seen any in the local shops in Athens.
Is there anyone who has similar experience or any idea where I start?

I have an online friend who lives in Athens, and her computer breaks a lot, so we'd like to send each other physical letters. She sent me the way to address an envelope to her with the words in Greek but spelled with our alphabet. But would I have to write the envelope in the Greek alphabet? It would confuse my post office, but maybe not hers. She can send me the info written in Greek. I'm not sure which one I would have to do in order to get my letter to her.

In 1829 when Greece became a state, for the first time, it was a small country covering the region of Morea, modern day Peloponnesus (Greece proper). The majority of people living in Morea at the time spoke Albanian, Turkish, Vlach and Slav. Athens itself, the cradle of the ancient civilization, was nothing more than an Albanian village.

I recently learned I am 50% Greek. My birth-father was born in Athens. We don't have a relationship, but I'd love to learn about my Greek heritage so that I can pass it to my children. Are there any websites or organizations that could help? I thought about contacting my local Greek school. What do you think?

I am an Englishman engaged to my beautiful Greek girlfriend and we are planning my move to Athens from England probably sometime after Christmas to be together. I am currently learning Greek, and thoroughly enjoying it, and was wondering if anyone knew how this will help me find regular work and settle in Athens.

How would you write "Nyx Aeluros Arion of Athens" in Greek? Like with the greek alphabet? It's for a unit in school on ancient greece.
