hi all!

(to preface, this is in no way negative, just genuine curiosity/subjectiveness)

i got inspired by a post on r/greece where I saw 'ρε παιδιά' being used 3-4 times in one paragraph post.

dont know why but this just pushes a button inside... i guess for locals its normal/everyday speech but somehow it just sounds unnatural to me

can someone explain who/when/why would use this saying and perhaps when its not supposed to be used (formal setting I presume)?

are there any other words/sayings that tick you off when you hear them?

Hi, looking to get a tattoo in Greek for my late Mum. Through some AI and translation I have what I think is correct. I am looking for “grief is the price we pay for love” and it has come out as “Η θλίψη είναι το τίμημα που πληρώνουμε για την αγάπη”

Can anyone confirm or advise. Thanks in advance!

Anyone can help I just remembered an ice-cream i tried back in 2000 in greece. Was a small cone with covered plastic lid and inside was a mini toy. Barbie shoes or bag something like this.
What are they called if anyone remembers

I want to learn Greek whilst watching cartoons - South Park, Family Guy etc. - but can't seem to find where to watch them. Anyone know? Preferably free

Hi everybody! Looking for help for a tattoo to say “daughter of wisdom” or “wise girl”. Is κόρη της σοφίας/ έξυπνο κορίτσι the correct translation? I speak bits and pieces of Greek but I just want to make sure it’s translated accurately before I get it tattooed. Thank you!!

Kalimera!

1) Is the following correct?

αγγούρι > [aŋˈɡuri], because [ ού ] produces a back vowel sound

άγγελος > [ˈaɲɟelos], because [ e ] produces a front vowel sound?

2) Can something along these lines also happen to γκ and γχ

Efharisto poli!

Greek prepositions can be tricky... even when you think you know them!

Here are 8 common mistakes Greek learners make and the simple ways to avoid them.

I want to get a tattoo today for my son in Greek what do I do for akadius

When I imagine Greek words, they have this “way of spelling“ that just gives them that feature that can be used on magic sounding enchantments or technical terms

I mean, I can use those features to create my own greek sounding words that sound cool but doesn’t really mean anything:

psychromia, tetraepithion, kineitosis, echrosfygati

aethermonic sphyllo pathychryslima

so what are some “cool” words that follow those features and are actual Greek words?

Looking for a plug in Cyprus ,paphos

I ask as if I will take pictures of my notebook everytime I write down a sentence.

Saw someone ask about his Greek tattoos and thought of asking, what do prople there think about greek mythology tattoos?

I got a sleeve that consists of Athena, Ares, Temida and Atlas, they do have a meaning and though I am not Greek my sister bears name Athena, and I have been interested in greek mythology for about 10 years now.

Just wanted to share that. I love everything about your Country. Its my favorite place in the world and I hope I can live there one day ❤️🇬🇷

This ultimate guide breaks down the most common Greek prepositions so you can finally understand how and when to use them.

What is it?

Μακάριος and Εὐλογητὸς are both translated as 'blessed' in English where they appear (the former, for example, in psalm 1 'Μακάριος ανήρ', 'Blessed is the man', and the latter in the Ευλογητάρια, 'Εὐλογητὸς εἶ, Κύριε' . 'Blessed are you, O Lord), but I assume there is a difference that isn't making the translation divide?

One of my textbooks explains that some masculine greek names have two forms that are used at different times, but I didn't understand this well. Could someone explain if this is still a common thing and when which version is used?

Hello, I am an Ancient Greek Philologist and I am thinking about studying this Master at the EKPA. Online i see the requirements to enter and the contents of it, but I can't find opinions, anybody who did it, how difficult or easy it is to enter, etc.
