Greek is one of the oldest living languages in the world, with roots tracing back over 3,000 years. Its earliest form, Mycenaean Greek, appeared in written form on clay tablets around 1450 BCE. Ancient Greek evolved into several dialects, influencing Western philosophy, science, and literature. It was the language of Homer, Socrates, and Aristotle, shaping the intellectual foundations of the Western world.
Over the centuries, Greek absorbed influences from Latin, Turkish, and Slavic languages, but it retained a distinct structure. Today, Modern Greek remains a vital link to its ancient past, preserving both linguistic and cultural continuity in Greece and Cyprus.
Greek culture is deeply intertwined with its language, and it offers a rich tapestry of history, art, and tradition. From the epic mythologies of gods and heroes to world-renowned architecture like the Parthenon, Greek contributions to art and philosophy are immeasurable.
Greece is also the birthplace of democracy, where public debate and civic engagement were central to daily life. Culinary traditions, such as the use of olive oil and fresh ingredients, reflect the Mediterranean lifestyle. Greek festivals, notably the ancient Olympic Games, continue to influence global sports culture.
Additionally, the concept of philoxenia—the tradition of hospitality—remains central to Greek society, where welcoming strangers is seen as a moral duty. These cultural pillars have shaped not only Greece but also the broader Western world.
Across the industry, Greek interpreting is typically charged on a per minute rate. With Jeenie, our rates are some of the best in the industry. Your per minute rate will depend on which Jeenie plan you have. See our Pricing page for more details.
Note: Jeenie offers the same rate for Video and Audio-only. Why?
Because we know that video sessions get better outcomes. Video captures non-verbal cues (75% – 93% of most interactions) – making it more efficient and more effective in critical interactions.
We get this question a lot.
Greek interpreters help with spoken interactions. They are present in-the-moment to help people with different languages to communicate (Greek into English and English into Greek). Interpreters also serve as communication and are experts at culture nuance. They help to ensure that both parties understand each other.
Greek translators help with written documents. Translators convert written text into the needed language.
Jeenie attracts the best interpreters in the world. Truly. We constantly hear from clients that they have NEVER had such amazing interpreters on other services. That skill saves our clients time and minimizes their risk of costly miscommunications. Here's how we excel at quality:
