Και να θες - Γιώργος Μαζωνάκης *

Philadelphia I have a bad news for you! I've just downloaded from the net a song I didn't have, and I also have the lyrics!!!! LOL!!!! Guess what will appear tommorow ?!

That is, IF WE FINISH WITH THIS ONE!!!!

Sirenceto "d" from edo is to be pronounced like "th" from "that"! It's not exactly "d" from "door".

I really have no idea what that means.

1. First of all, what's wrong with the words you mentioned? Are they mispelt? Besides "πάλει" which I suppose it should have been "παλί" (cause you translated it with "again"), for the rest of them I can't say anything.

2. "και φοβάσαι πως τα χα θα φηγό
AND YOU ARE AFRAID THAT SUPPOSEDLY I WILL LEAVE"
Could you exaplain this: τα χα θα φηγό , word by word?

3. "δεν σ’ αλλάζω
I DON'T CHANGE YOU (?!?)"
This could mean: I don't change you for anybody else?

4." παν απαλά καρδιά μου σε βάζο (?!?!?!?)
THEY GO GENTLY, MY HEART, IN A VASE"
That's too profound and phylosophic for me!!! LOL!! Could you translate it word by word, maybe I can get some sense out of it.
Like, παν= ?
απαλά=?
σε=? (this isn't a pronoun?, second person singular)
βάζο=?( I know that written like this it means "vase", but is there another word in greek that sounds similar? I listened to the song 10 times and the word sounds like βάζο.....)

5. I've wanted to ask this for a long time, but always forgot. Now it's a good moment:
"αφού μόνο εσένα αγαπώ
SINCE ONLY YOU I LOVE"

Actually he says αγαπαώ. What's the difference between αγαπώ and αγαπαώ, cause I saw it is translated in the same way!

6. And as a bonus, a special request: this is from another song, Τι σου έχω κάνει ( I know what I've done: I've driven you crazy!!!!!LOL!!!), I ALREADY HAVE THE TRANSLATION!!!! LOL But I don't have the translation of these two lyrics:
"Δεν ξέρω τι να κάνω που να πάω, σ' αγαπάω, πες μου
γιατί σε άλλους δίνεις τα φιλιά σου, την καρδιά σου, πες μου"

I'm gonna take a wild guess here, but I'm not sure it's right:

"I don't know what to do and where to go, I love you, tell me
Why do you give others your kisses, you heart, tell me"
(By the way, from this song I learned a lot! I'm talking about the language here!!!LOL!



SO, as you may "see" ... most of your inquiries CAN be answered by this "endings" explanation ...

... however, let's break them down ... I will need YOUR participation, now ...




OK ... let's take "inquiry number 2" ...

How do you think would be the CORRECT "spelling" of the "verb" ... ?

Αντε παιδιά, φρόνιμα είπαμε ...
ante pidia fronima ipame ???
Correct or ....

P.S. What does it mean ?

that would be φηγώ

what verb?

Come on, children, "sensibly" we said (already) !!!


("Sensibly" ... a word CLOSELY ASSOCIATED with the classroom ... teachers say it ALL the time ... like in English "come on, children, settle down" ... )

φεύγω?

At least in the present tense...

ante pedia fronima ipame ???
so must be,yeep ???

yes!!

... yes, the word in its "present tense" is "φεύγω" = "to leave" , "to go away"

... "future tense" = "Θα φύγω" ...

PLEASE, note that the ACCENTS are there NOT as an "ornament" ... they are there to guide your voice on how to pronouce the word ... where to "pitch" your voice ... in other words, where to "accentuate" ...

And YES I know I am repeating things you know lready !!! ....

Should talk about the ντ- combination another time too...

Are we ok so far? ...

... children, we need to learn to "walk" before we "run" ...


... σιγά-σιγά ... slowly-slowly ... no need to hurry ...

Ok

I know they are not there as ornaments unfortunately.... I have difficulties knowing and remember where to put the pressure

Reminds me of Ancient Greek class, they explained everything so fast and just when I was about to "aha" - ok next subject!! lol

... don't worry ... Philadelphia (and others that know properly how to write and pronounce) will be here for ANY guidance and reminder you may need ...

φεύγω ??? What e mess in my head ! lol How should I read it ?
ευγ= ?
Μaybe fugo???
