Greek Language Experts
About this episode

In today's episode you will learn how to use the time when speaking in Greek. Emily and Danae will first engage in a conversation talking about their busy day and then will give you some more clarity on how we use morning, afternoon, evening and night.


E: Είμαι πολύ κουρασμένη σήμερα. Έχω ξυπνήσει από τις 6:00 το πρωί και δεν έκατσα καθόλου. / I'm very tired today. I woke up at 6:00 in the morning and haven’t rested at all.

D: Γιατί ξύπνησες τόσο νωρίς; / Why did you wake up so early?

Ε: Έπρεπε να ξεκινήσω νωρίτερα για την δουλειά και αντί για 8:00 που φεύγω συνήθως, έφυγα στις 7:00 το πρωί. / I had to start work earlier, and instead of leaving at 8:00 as usual, I left at 7:00 in the morning.

D: Αφού ξεκίνησες νωρίτερα, ελπίζω να γύρισες και νωρίτερα. / Since you started earlier, I hope you got home earlier too.

Ε: Δυστυχώς όχι, γύρισα στο σπίτι στις 6:30 το απόγευμα. / Unfortunately not, I got home at 6:30 in the evening.

D: Πολλές ώρες! Πρόλαβες να φας μεσημεριανό; / That’s a long day! Did you have time for lunch?

Ε: Ευτυχώς έκανα διάλειμμα και έφαγα γύρω στις 2:00 το μεσημέρι. Αλλά πάλι πεινάω και δεν έχω ετοιμάσει ακόμα το βραδινό μου. / Luckily, I took a break and ate around 2:00 in the afternoon. But I’m hungry again, and I haven’t prepared dinner yet.

D: Γιατί δεν φτιάχνεις κάτι γρήγορο να φας; / Why don’t you make something quick to eat?

Ε: Γιατί πρέπει πρώτα να τελειώσω με κάποιες άλλες δουλειές για να μην τις κάνω μέχρι αργά το βράδυ. / Because I have to finish some other tasks first so I don’t end up doing them late at night.

D: Κατάλαβα. Κοίτα, τώρα είναι ήδη 8:30 το βράδυ και εάν δεν φας πρώτα, μάλλον θα φας το βραδινό σου τα μεσάνυχτα. / I see. Look, it’s already 8:30 in the evening, and if you don’t eat first, you’ll probably end up having dinner at midnight.

Ε: Ναι, αλλά αν μαγειρέψω και φάω τώρα, τις δουλειές μου σίγουρα θα τις κάνω στις 2:00 τα ξημερώματα! / Yes, but if I cook and eat now, I’ll be doing my tasks at 2:00 in the morning!

D: Έχεις δίκιο. Φτιάξε κάτι γρήγορο τώρα για να τελειώσεις πριν πάει 10:00 το βράδυ και να προλάβεις να  φας λίγο νωρίτερα. Τι λες;  / You’re right. Make something quick now so you can finish before 10:00 and eat a bit earlier. What do you think?

Ε: Αυτό θα κάνω! Εσύ τι ώρα θα πας για ύπνο; / That’s what I’ll do! What time are you going to bed?

D: Ευτυχώς σήμερα έχω τελειώσει με όλες μου τις υποχρεώσεις από νωρίς και θα κοιμηθώ γύρω στις 10:30 με 11:00 το βράδυ. / Fortunately, I finished all my tasks early today, so I’ll sleep around 10:30 or 11:00 at night.

Ε: Τυχερή! Άντε σε κλείνω για να ξεκινήσω. / Lucky you! Alright, I’ll let you go so I can start.

D: Ναι, ναι! Καλό βράδυ! / Yes, yes! Have a good night!

Ε: Καληνύχτα! Θα τα πούμε αύριο! / Goodnight! Talk to you tomorrow!
