So Greek language sounds just like Spanish

You can listen here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LV9TiR3fNg0

What's the point of preserving a multi-millenial literary tradition if it all ends up sounding as just a Spanish rip-off? They might as well just all start speaking Espagnol and translate their legacy there too.

Greek doesn't have the sound B, either. They write "b" as "mp".

Maybe it's not that Greek sounds like Spanish but Spanish sounds like Greek?!?

>>1
It's only the first guy that sounds weird.

>>2
Thus it does have the sound b if you write mp.

>>3 is right, >>1. Greek is older than Spanish so Spanish is just ripping off Greek. And Spanish itself is just bastardized Latin. σεαυτόν θάνον, βάρβαρε

>>5
Spanish is spoken by 420 million people, Greek is spoken by barely 15 million people. In most people's minds, Greek is a rip off from Spanish.

>>6
But most of those 420 million people are brown or spaniards, and none of them are worth talking too, while Greek is the language of Western Civilization. Even Rome was speaking Greek in the end, and every year, English becomes more and more Greekified as new scientific and mathematical concepts are discovered and assigned Greek names.

Greek is the language of Western Civilization

No it isn't, since Graecia capta ferum victorem cepit and Latin became the common language of Western Civilization for more than a thousand years.

every year, English becomes more and more Greekified

Every year, English becomes more and more Spanified as Spics are the fastest-growing ethicity in the USA, and many places in America already include duo-lingo inscriptions and people who will serve spic customers in Spanish etc. As for scientific and mathematical concepts, they are a negligible part of the lexicon and a good half of them are taken from Latin anyway.

>>8
People speaking Spanish do not make English become more "Spanified". They're still two distinct languages.

>>9
Spics speaking English make English very Spanified.
Americans speaking Spanish (which they learn to talk to all the spics around them) bring Spanish words into their lexicon.
Even Americans who don't speak Spanish start using Espagnol words because they hear them all the time.

>>10
The USA isn't the only country that speaks English you fucking idiot

>>11
But it's where the majority of English speakers are, and where Hollywood is (which coincidentally is located in a heavily Hispanic state), thus is the largest trend-setter for global English speakers.

>>11
Um, they actually only spoke Mexican in USA? It's 2016, retard.

>>10
Not really, I haven't seen many Spanish mannerisms intrude into the English language, and I love in Florida which has a huge Spanish speaking population (in fact, I believe Miami is the only city where English is not the majority first language of the residents.)

Dialects of AAVE have influenced the language to a far greater degree, which I attribute to its widespread usage as a "casual" register on online communities. I even see non Americans using slang from AAVE just because it's encountered so much online.
