How Are You?
With these added letters, we can now ask “How are you?”
Τι κάνετε;
Two things to note about this phrase:
- The ; at the end of the sentence is a Greek question mark.
- 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:
