How Are You?

With these added letters, we can now ask “How are you?”

Τι κάνετε;

Two things to note about this phrase:

  1. The ; at the end of the sentence is a Greek question mark.
  2. As with other European languages, Greek has two ways of talking to people: polite and informal. The question above is in the polite form, which you use in a business situation or when talking to strangers or older people.

And here are a few other words that we can build with our supply of Greek letters:

Greek English
αλλά but
ελιά olive tree
ένα one
εννέα
εννιά
nine
νιάτα youth
τελικά finally
