Does Queen Margrethe know Greek? She seems to be listening like she knows.
At the Gymnasium in my country (the secondary school type of Amalia, Alexia and Ariane) ancient Greek and Latin are part of the regular curriculum. Today's modern Greek is far more simplified (grammatically) but I do not know if ancient Greek helps understanding today's Greek language.
In Germany the Gymnasium offers Ancient Greek and Latin as optional courses. I believe the Danish sisters Margrethe, Benedikte and Anne-Marie had Gymnasium as well. In Denmark -like in Germany- ancient Greek and Latin are optional courses in the curriculum. If (then) Princess Anne-Marie had this, she had some understanding of basic Greek when she engaged to Prince Constanine.
