    The Greek alphabet is a writing system that was developed around 1000 BCE in Greece. It’s considered to be the ancestor (either directly or indirectly) of all modern European alphabets. [1] Here are all the letters in the Greek alphabet:

    • Αα - alpha
    • Ββ - beta
    • Γγ - gamma
    • Δδ - delta
    • Εε - epsilon
    • Ζζ - zeta
    • Ηη - eta
    • Θθ - theta
    • Ιι - iota
    • Κκ - kappa
    • Λλ - lambda
    • Μμ - mu
    • Νν - nu
    • Ξξ - xi
    • Οο - omicron
    • Ππ - pi
    • Ρρ - rho
    • Σσς - sigma
    • Ττ - tau
    • Υυ - upsilon
    • Φφ - phi
    • Χχ - chi
    • Ψψ - psi
    • Ωω - omega

    Even if you aren’t a scholar of Ancient Greek history, you’ve likely seen the Greek alphabet before in your daily life. For example, Greek letters are often used in mathematical equations—the symbol for the Greek letter pi (π) is used to represent the ratio of a circle’s circumference to its diameter, which is approximately equal to 3.14. Greek letters are also used in the names of fraternities, sororities, and honor societies, so you’ve likely seen them around campus if you’re a college student.
