    bocalo? You mean mboukala? :p: Bottle?
    God, Greek is such a bloody difficult language. It's not wonder no one speaks it as a foreign tongue....

    And the fact that you post everwhere is GOOD! Advertising!!

    Hehehe - flintzani Or potiri, if you want glass...
    Don't worry, my Greek's...odd. My parents always laugh at the stupid mistakes I make with Greek grammar. Some of my more embarrassing mistakes include saying "laetherenia" instead of "dermatina" (made of leather)...well, there are more but I can't remember:P:

    Re: Η Ελληνική Κοινωνία
    Some useful sites for people who are Greek (or wish they were :p:)

    To learn Greek: http://www.bbc.co.uk/languages/greek/
    A gentle intro into Greek culture: http://www.historyforkids.org/learn/greeks/
    Facebook group (for those of you who have it): http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=2205152188 (The Real Greeks Global)

    There's more...

    http://www.greece.org/gr-lessons/gr-english/ (gives a lot of history of the Greek language, esp. for those people interested in the dialects :p: and also Greek language lessons.)
    http://www.kypros.org/LearnGreek/ (you need to make an account for this one, which I don't have, but it seems to be good).

    Any other ideas?

    It is our own private chatting lounge lol...xania seems to post when he has stuff to say (unlike us who seem to spout whatever coherent - and incoherent, now I think of it - stuff comes into our heads)...and stalking seems to be our only alternative! I wonder where he is.......
