Really excellent video to help my Greek learning. Efcharisto!
Glad to hear that!
Nightfall varies, of course. Can this affect the change from απόγευμα to βράδυ or are the times you give pretty much standard?
You may here some people referring to 8.30pm as βραδυ but more often you will hear βραδυ starting at 9pm (especially in the summer where it gets darker later than the winter)
You forgot "Που είναι η τουαλέτα?" (Just kidding.)
I'm of Greek ancestry, but some of the pronunciations I'm used to are a little different from those you give. (Maybe they're a bit old-fashioned or dialectal. My grandparents were from Αιτωλία and Ακαρνανία.) I drop the "ν" in "την" before a consonant, pronounce "Πέμπτη" as though spelled "Πέμτη" (with a full "τ" sound) and palatalize my λs and νs before an "ee" sound. I also say "ημέρα" instead of "μέρα" and "εχθές" instead of "χτές". (A translation site backs me up on both of these.) I'm curious to know how these usages are regarded. I suppose I might get different answers from different people. (I've already gotten some for some of these.)
I guess people originated from Αιτωλία and Ακαρνανία have some local accent. I'm a native Greek speaker from Athens so the pronunciations are the official one. Also dropping the v before consonants is partly correct. Its wrong to drop it before any consonant. The word Thursday is spelled Πέμπτη not Πέμτη amd pronounced Pembti. Ημέρα and μέρα is the same and εχθές is a little more old fashioned than χθες. Hope I helped!
@@bettergreek I believe that palatalization of λ and v before "ee" vowels ("lyee" and "nyee" rather than "lee" and "nee" used to be more common than it is now. I was in Athens in 1966 and 1971. I heard palatalization mostly from older people. I attended Dora Stratou's dance show on both occasions. In one dance there were two groups of men, one younger than the other. The older group sang a phrase that was then repeated by the younger group. The older group palatalized; the younger group did not. Ms. Stratou (an Athenian born in 1903) palatalized consistently.
This is such a useful video thank you for posting this! Very informative.
Glad it was helpful!
efxaristo!❤
Να'σαι καλά!

You're welcome!
Greetings from Poland 😍
Welcome!!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
καλα!
Very good video. Is the word αλλεργία, for allergies gendered? If you say I'm allergic to ____. does it change depending on if the food word is masculine or feminine?
Yes, you can say "Είμαι αλλεργικός / αλλεργική στην γλουτένη" (I'm allergic to gluten) or "έχω αλλεργία στην γλουτένη" (I have allergy to gluten)
is it Cypriot greek or Elenika greek as i know cypriot greeks are rude and people too
Elenika Greek
😂😂😂😂
for dada, i think the translation to English should be spelled nanny, if it is referring to a babysitter or a child caretaker.
That's right!
@@bettergreek ah ok thanks, great videos they're very helpfull.
Hi, I'm from Brazil and I had been three times in Greece and after my last trip I decided to learn Greek . I speak a little now but Iit's not enough because I want to learn more and more, of course. Well done. I'll follow you from now on. See you!
Efcharistó Thanasis 😊. I think I need a note book to study this phrases in a better way.
You're welcome! Yes for sure, writing them down in a notebook also helps to memorize
Thank you! I have seen many videos about the greek alphabet. You give the best tip for pronunciation of Γ γ. "A soft gargle." This has helped me a lot. Your explanations are very clear.
Glad it was helpful!
то відео соу еіvаі оморфо!
@Better Greek team, I believe that your slides should use Latin characters, on top of the English translation; not everyone is fluent in the Greek alphabet and language, and I guess that is why you upload those videos, for the non-Greek speakers, who can read a text written with Latin characters! If you do this, your videos will be very useful, internationally!! Take care xox
Love your video !!!
Thank you!!
Λατρεύω αυτό το βίντεο!! Ευχαριστώ!! Greetings from Queens, New York!!
good video
HOW DO YOU SAY "CAN WE ORDER?" INSTEAD OF CAN I ORDER?
The example he has in the video is “can we order” at 0:43, “να παραγγείλουμε;” or “na pa-ra-GEE-loo-meh) (To say “can I order” is “να παραγγείλω;” or “na pa-ra-GEE-low”)

@@bettergreek thank you ☺️
Really enjoyed watching this. For those out there who are new to the Greek language, this video really does provide you with easy to follow real world examples you can use straight away. Looking forward to seeing more Thanasis.
Thank you, I appreciate it! There will definitely be more videos
Ευχαριστώ
Να'σαι καλά!
I love how you show the words written in English for the pronunciation. Very helpful.
Thank you! 😃 Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for this great video! Looking forward to more 🎉
Thank you! I appreciate it!
Listen brother, when learning a language it is best to have only one variation. Otherwise the mind gets over burdened.
This is a rather blunt comment, but it is basically true. The language used is not for a complete beginner. I liked it because it builds on the small amount of basic Greek that I know.
You should pay a little more attention to the title. It says “like a pro”. That is to say, he’s willing to show us the various ways you can make yourself understood when ordering food. If you’re a complete beginner, go find yourself a suitable video.
@@lucaseduardogamapereira7353 If you would like to grow your channel, then perhaps you might be a little more tactful when replying to people who take the trouble to comment.
Thank you Thanasi
You're welcome!
Thank you very much, Thanasis! Your video will help me a lot :D
Glad to hear that! I appreciate it!
Thank you 😊
You're welcome 😊
I just point at the menu when I 'm in Greece and say " I want please ". Most times it's what l like. ( Except for the Goat's testicles ! ) . It's the luck of the draw really . But it didn't work one time ! The waiter said " You can't have that ! " l said " Why not ? " He replied " because it says " The Wine and Beer list is on the back page ! "
😂
Εξαιρετικό, παλικάρι!
Ευχαριστώ, να'σαι καλά!
