City of Joondalup
The City of Joondalup is a local government area with City status in Perth, Western Australia. It covers the metropolitan Perth city of Joondalup in its entirety, as well as the town centres of Hillarys and Warwick.
City of Joondalup History
Prior to the 1970s, the region now known as the City of Joondalup was sparsely populated. During the 1980s and 1990s, massive growth occurred, partly due to State Government policies which made Joondalup a regional centre, including the extension of the Mitchell Freeway and the construction of the Joondalup railway line.
Until 1998, the area had been controlled by the City of Wanneroo and its predecessors. An independent commission suggested the creation of Joondalup out of the coastal areas of Wanneroo, and the City of Joondalup came into existence on 1 July 1998.

The Greek language is the official language of Greece (Hellas) and Cyprus. It was first spoken in Greece and was also once spoken along the coast of Asia Minor (now a part of Turkey) and in southern Italy. It was also widely used in Western Asia and Northern Africa at one time. In Greek, the language is called Ελληνικά (elliniká).
Greeks write their language using the Greek alphabet. The Latin alphabet (used to write English and many other languages) came from the Greek alphabet. Many other alphabets around the world also came from the Greek one, such as the Cyrillic alphabet.
Greek is an independent branch of the Indo-European language family. The ancient language most closely related to it may be ancient Macedonian, which many scholars suggest may have been a dialect of Greek itself, but it is so poorly attested that it is difficult to conclude anything about it. Independently of the Macedonian question, some scholars have grouped Greek into Graeco-Phrygian, as Greek and the extinct Phrygian share features that are not found in other Indo-European languages. Among living languages, some Indo-Europeanists suggest that Greek may be most closely related to Armenian (see Graeco-Armenian) or the Indo-Iranian languages (see Graeco-Aryan), but little definitive evidence has been found for grouping the living branches of the family. In addition, Albanian has also been considered somewhat related to Greek and Armenian by some linguists. If proven and recognised, the three languages would form a new Balkan sub-branch with other dead European languages.
Modern Greek inherits most of its vocabulary from Ancient Greek, which in turn is an Indo-European language, but also includes a number of borrowings from the languages of the populations that inhabited Greece before the arrival of Proto-Greeks, some documented in Mycenaean texts; they include a large number of Greek toponyms. The form and meaning of many words have evolved. Loanwords (words of foreign origin) have entered the language, mainly from Latin, Venetian, and Turkish. During the older periods of Greek, loanwords into Greek acquired Greek inflections, thus leaving only a foreign root word. Modern borrowings (from the 20th century on), especially from French and English, are typically not inflected; other modern borrowings are derived from South Slavic (Macedonian/Bulgarian) and Eastern Romance languages (Aromanian and Megleno-Romanian).

Greek Document Translation
Modern Standard Greek (Demotic) is used uniformly in official documents throughout Greece and Cyprus. However, documents from Cyprus may contain Cypriot Greek vocabulary and institutional terminology specific to that country's administrative system. Documents from the Greek diaspora in countries like Egypt, Turkey, and Australia itself may be in archaic Katharevousa (the puristic form used officially until 1976) rather than modern Demotic Greek, requiring specialist knowledge of this now-defunct formal register.
Greek Document Types
Greek civil documents include the ληξιαρχική πράξη γεννήσεως (lixiarkhiki praxi genniseos, birth certificate), ληξιαρχική πράξη γάμου (lixiarkhiki praxi gamou, marriage certificate), and άδεια οδήγησης (adeia odigisis, driving licence). Civil records are maintained by the ληξιαρχείο (lixiarkhio, civil registry) of each municipality.
Where Greek Is Official
Greek is the official language of Greece and one of two official languages of Cyprus (alongside Turkish). It is also one of the 24 official languages of the European Union. Greek has recognised minority language status in Albania, Turkey, and Italy (Calabria and Puglia). As EU member states, both Greece and Cyprus issue documents that increasingly conform to European standards, though Greek bureaucratic traditions dating to the establishment of the modern Greek state add distinctive formatting and attestation requirements.
Greek uses its own alphabet with 24 letters. The ELOT 743 standard is the official Greek romanisation system and is used on Greek passports and identity documents. However, many established romanisations of Greek names follow older conventions (e.g., Giorgos vs Georgios, Vassilis vs Vasilios), and translators must match existing passport romanisations rather than applying systematic transliteration to personal names.
