A typical inhibition is the different alphabet, but this should not be an issue as one can master it in one lesson. After all, the Greek letters are fewer than the Latin ones and most of them are the same.
Moreover, Greek is much easier to read than English, or French for that matter, since it is read as it is spelled.
