Smile No lyrics, no translations..something else..

Γεια σε όλη την παρέα!

This time it has nothing to do with music but language. OK, now, I need to be able to say something in Greek very immediately but I’m not sure what would be the most appropriate expression in my context. I want to say, in a very angry tone, “Stop! That’s enough! / Enough of it!” Should I say “Πάψε!” or “Σταμάτα!”? And for the next part, can I say “Αρκετά πια!” or “Φτάνει!” I need an expression that would sound as authentic as possible..as Greek as possible, let’s say… Or is there a better alternative that I’m not aware of??

Kindly submitted to the attention of speakers of Greek...

Ευχαριστώ από τώρα...

Maria mou..Thanks for your encouragement..It means a lot to me to hear such words from a native speaker as I don't have many around me!

Continue and you see that soon you'll be able to speak greek fluently. You already speak well, but practice always makes you better!
