Q

Today it’s too hot to play tennis.
(informally to one friend, inferring his/her playing)

A

Σήμερα κάνει πάρα πολύ ζέστη για να παίξεις τένις.

## Footnote

ΝΟΤΕ:
In the sentence “Κάνει ζέστη σήμερα” the word “ζέστη” (zésti) means “heat” and not “hot.” The stress remains consistent on the first syllable for “ζέστη.”

the word for hot is ζεστός

Q

There’s a good film at four.

A

Εχει ένα καλό έργο στις τέσσερις.

a much more colloquial word for ‘film’ in Greek is ταινία - a feminine word. έργο is terribly formal - and I suspect, will be received as terribly snobbish in many circles.

Q

Ι don’t like to walk when it’s hot.

A

Δεν μου αρέσει να περπατάω όταν κάνει ζέστη.

ζέστη < > ζεστός

ζέστη is a word, meaning heat
ζεστός is an adjective, meaning hot

Remember that, so as not to get confused as to why the stress point in not in the same point.

Q

Can you take me there?
(informal and formal)

A

Μπορείς να με πάς εκεί;
Μπορείτε να με πάτε εκεί;

the verb is πάω, not παίρνω…

NOTE:

In Greek, the subjunctive is typically used after certain particles like να or θα, and here να introduces the verb πάρεις.

The indicative form of the verb would be παίρνεις (present tense), but after να, the verb shifts to the subjunctive form, which in this case is πάρεις.

(formal)

A

67
Q

I’m leaving for Mykonos on Wednesday.

A

Φεύγω για τη Μύκονο την Τετάρτη.

ChatGPT says:

The correct form is “τη Μύκονο” when used in a sentence. The final “ν” in the article “την” is typically dropped when followed by a word that begins with a consonant, like “Μ”. So you would say:

Πήγα στη Μύκονο. (I went to Mykonos.)
However, if the following word starts with a vowel or some consonants like “κ”, “π”, or “τ”, you would retain the “ν” and say “την”.

68
Q

How long are you going to stay?

A

Πόσο καιρό θα μείνετε;

69
Q

See you soon and have a good trip.

A

Θα τα πούμε σύντομα και καλό ταξίδι.
