Sorry, I should have been more specific, I ment the written alphabet, not the spoken language. Anyway, the Latin Alphabet is as such: A B C D etc... The Greek is Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta... and the Aramaic is Allep, Bet, Gammal, Dallat, or literally translated: Ox, house, camel, door etc... the latin version of writing actually looks more like the orignial cuniform. If you turn "A" upsidedown, you get what looks like the head of an ox, "B" is the shape of a series of houses, C is the camels hump and so on. The only real semtic words the greeks borrowed were for unfamiliar things, mostly foods that did not grow in the area, Oranges for example, in both Aramaic and Greek Orange translates to "portugal." When the Arabs invaded Spain in the 7th century, they found the western coast covered with orange tree orchards and named it Portugal!
