When Greek Sounds Like Spanish

Greek and Spanish are two TOTALLY different languages, but some words sound alike. Misunderstandings and mixups are par for the course in our Spanish-Greek family.

We’re back after a 2 week hiatus with an episode about finally getting to the mother country! We’re sharing a few highlights and what we learned on our trip to make travel around Athens and a few of the islands easier.

Bonus Greek phrase: Χάσαμε το λεοφορείo! (Hà-sa-meh toh lay-o-for-ee-o)We missed the bus!!

Tsee Who Must Be Obeyed

Even though my mom was born in NJ, like half a dozen of her cousins and her brother, the other kids were still called Americans. To differentiate them from the rest of us, the Greeks. Because we should be proud! Lucky for us she ruled the house and our lives with an iron fist!

Memorializing Ma
Memorializing Ma

Grieving a lost loved one doesn’t end with the funeral. My mother is still a part of our family, even though she’s been gone for ten years. Greeks (and all Orthodox) continue to remember, pray for, and celebrate our departed family members. Find out why, and how, we hold memorials year after year. And like everything else, afterwards, we eat!
