Greek alphabet

                                    Greek alphabet

The Greek alphabet is the script that has been used to write the Greek language  since the 8th century BC . Apart from its use in writing Greek language , both in its ancient and modern forms , the Greek alphabet today also serves as a source of technical symbols and labels in many domains of mathematics , science and other fields.
In its classical and modern form , the alphabet has 24 letters , ordered from alpha to omega . We have A to Z in English language , here is the list of Greek alphabets which we feel familiar .
