I find the posts about the correspondence for the Greek alphabet (transliteration, pronunciation) and thank you again for that, but I have some questions. The lyrics below, for example, I made transliteration, but...
When "y" become "g"? And where can I find some grammar rules (verbs, times, etc.). At least some basic information.
And of course I am in difficult with the correct translation of the lyrics. I believe I understand the idea, but is not enough (it's frustrating, actually
). Please, help me!
(Some time ago I learn Russian, and I was even able to speak it well enough. But there was none to talk with, so... I still know the alphabet so it was easy for me to read in Greek - some letters looks like letters from Russian alphabet) - but still... I need some directions. If there are someone that could help me, I'll be grateful.
Thank you!
Best wishes,
Eli
