For Greek as in the language, I think it's said "Ellinika". In Greek lettering, its Åëëçíéêüò or something. Better a real Greek answers.

If you want to say, a greek male person, you say "Elinas" with a stress on the E word. If you want to say, a greek female person, you say "Elinida" with a stress on the midle I. If you are talking about something neutral, you say "Eliniko", with a stress on the O.

Yes, I have a greek keyboard.
The characters you see on the post, are not the greek characters. You'll need greek fonts to see the text.  :-D

Hey, don't forget: Mangas!  :-D

So tell me, how do you type in those Greek letters? I can see those letters, but I'm not sure what I need to do to type them. Oh yeah, I'm using WinXP.

Great to see how many know some Greek!!! :-D


Fire up your narrator.device, here it goes:

-Greek (the language): ????????
say elleeneeK_AA_.

-Greek (the man): ???????
say _AE_llee_nasss.

-Greek (the woman): ????????
say AElleen_eeeda.

-Greek (an object): ????????
say elleeneeKau_.

Read and listen to the Greek language, one of the oldest linguistic traditions of the world.

P.S. In order to read what is written above, just set the codepage to 8859-7. ;-)

In windows I just use Alt+Shift to change the keymap. To do this you must have greek keymap installed and the greek language as the 2nd language.

In amiga i use Alt+Space (I like the combination and set it on the Fkey commodity :-) )

My Team is producing the World's Best Strategy Game
In order to be the best, the game must be playable in Greek because:
1. Greek Amiga Community is very resilient and deserves it.
2. Greece is the home of many Legendary Heroes such as Hercules, Animagic and Xena: Warrior Princess  :-D
3. Greek fonts look way cool
4. The game is partly based on Greek Mythokogy.

A very big Thank You to everyone for theGreek help. :-)
