The presentation was given by Mr Xenophon Zolotas, a Greek Economist at the International Monetary Fund on September 26, 1957. His entire text was made up of word roots of Greek derivation.
Following is the speech:
"I eulogize the Archons of the Penethnic Nomismatic Thesaurus and the Ecumenical Trapeza for the Orthodoxy and their axioms, methods and policies, although there is an episode of cacophony of the Trapeza with Hellas. with enthusiasm we dialogue and synagonize at the synods of the didymus organizations in which polymorphus economic ideas and dogmas are analyzed and synthesized. Our critical problems such the nomismatic plethora generate some agony and melancholy. This phenomenon is characteristic of our epoch. But, to my thesis we have dynamism to program therapeutic practices as a prophylaxis from chaos and catastrophe. In parallel, a panethnic unhypocritical economic synergy and harmonization in a democratic climate is basic. I apologize for my eccentric monologue. i emphasize my eucharisties to you Kyrie, to the eugenic and generous American ethnos and to the organizers and protagonist of this amphictiony and the gastronomic symposia."
Incidentally, no one from the attendees uttered:"It is all Greek to me"

Καλησπέρα Σάκη, τί κάνεις, πώς πάει ο πατέρας σου;
Γνωστή εδώ και χρόνια αυτή η ομιλία του Ζολώτα...Έχει τεράστιο βάθος η γλώσσα μας, μας το επιβεβαιώνει καθημερινά και η κόρη μας που είναι φοιτήτρια γλωσσολογίας.
Καλό βράδυ!
Τσότσο φίλε μου, είναι καλά και σταθερός τώρα. αλλά στην κόψη του ξυραφιού.
Και ο δικός μου γυιος φοιτητάκι είναι στο Χαροκόπειο.
Ναναι καλά τα παιδιά και ναχουνε υγεία.
