How do you say:
"Do you speak Norse?" in Old Norse.
"Do you speak Latin?" in Latin.
"Do you speak Sanskrit?" in Sanskrit.
"Do you speak Egytpian?" in Coptic or Ancient Egyptian.
"Do you speak Greek?" in ANCIENT Greek.
"Do you speak Persian?" in Old Persian.
"Do you speak Sumerian?" in Sumerian.
"Do you speak Akkadian?" in Akkadian.
And in other ancient tongues...
Are there any websites where I can find these phrases?
Thanks! :)

PS. Thank you for the contributions so far.
I'd just like to point out that "Old Persian" means the Persian language during Achaemenid times (e.g. the time of Cyrus the Great and Darius). Middle Persian refers to the Persian language during Sassanian times. Modern Persian is the language from the time of the Islamic conquest to today.
