    Modern greek is not ancient greek. Anyway, just few states speaks greek today. Spanish, French and Italian (Romanian is influenced too) came from Latin, not greek.
    You forget Catalan and Portuguese.

    Portuguese is the latin language wich retain most Latinism today: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portuguese_language
    :) and the 5th language more spoken in the world, and the 3th more spoken in europe :)
    A poet once called the portuguese language was "the last flower of Latium, wild and beautiful"

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latin_language

    Also latin language were strongly influenced by ancient greek and etruscan language. Its very revelant, becouse most roman culture was very influenced by etruscan culture(people from etrúria), the art and the way of making ceremic, as well the triumph traditions comes from etrurian tribes. its important to understand this becouse vulgar latin isnt a copy of ancient greek. it retains much from varius cultures in italic peninsula, naturaly.
