Benefits of Learning Greek

Learning any new language has several benefits to students. It keeps you mentally sharp, increases attention spans, makes your college application stand out, and can give you an advantage when applying to certain jobs. 

Greek specifically provides a number of benefits to students. Here are 4 examples of how learning Greek online is beneficial:

4 Practical Benefits of Learning Greek

Traveling

Greece is one of the leading travel destinations in the world. It broke all the records in 2018 when it recorded 33 million tourists. The influx of visitors shows that Greece is a popular place for travel bugs from all over the world. 

If you plan to visit Greece, you should prioritize learning the language; why? It is beneficial as it will help you have better conversations and develop stronger relationships with the locals. After all, nobody wants to come off like a tourist on vacation.

Family

If you have friends or family with Greek roots, learning the language can help you develop a stronger bond with them. Speaking to somebody in their native language is an amazing opportunity to connect with them on a deeper level. Plus, you never know – maybe your future boss or business partner will speak Greek!

Culture

Learning a new language is about more than memorizing words and phrases. It also helps you understand the people and the culture a little bit better. One benefit of learning Greek is that it will give you a greater appreciation of the beauty in Greek poetry, literature, and music. It will also help you to see the influence of Greek culture in your own daily life.

Food  

Greek food is popular everywhere. You have probably had a gyro, hummus, or potato salad at some point in your life. If you tried it and liked it, then you have a connection to Greek food and culture.

Learning the Greek language can help you read authentic Greek recipes better. If you have a favorite Greek restaurant in your city, you can use your new language skills to impress the staff and possibly get the “hook up” whenever you visit.
