Kui ma Saksamaal käisin, kuulsin ühel õhtul tänaval kaht inimest võrdlemas saksa ja hollandi keelt!  One night, when I was in Germany, I heard two guys comparing Dutch and German. (That was Estonian) |

Ενώ γράφουμε στα ελληνικά, στην Κύπρο χρησιμοποιούμε μια διάλεκτο των ελληνικών, που μοιάζει αρκετά με τα αρχαία ελληνικά.
While we write in greek, in Cyprus we use a greek dialect when we speak, which has many similarities with ancient greek.

One night, when I was in Germany, I heard two guys comparing Dutch and German.
Kun kävin Saksassa, kuulin kahden ihmisen vertailevan hollannin ja saksan kieliä.
That was Finnish. It's a bit like Estonian if I compare the text with Pilleriin.

While we write in greek, in Cyprus we use a greek dialect when we speak, which has many similarities with ancient greek. Those are beautiful characters. Do you have both symbols on your keyboard? I've always thought it would be neat to learn Greek. |

Es macht wirklich Spaß die verschiedenen Sprachen zu vergleichen. Dieser Satz ist in deutsch geschrieben, aber das erkennen einige von euch vielleicht sogar. It's really funny to compare all those diffrent languages. This sentence is written in german, which some of you might recognize. |

Sono d'accordo, confrontare le diverse lingue è davvero interessante. Mi piacerebbe saperle parlare tutte! I agree, comparing different languages is really interesting. I wish I can speak them all!

If διάλεκτο means 'dialect', it is the only word I've understood I think Greek alphabet looks cool. |
