(Note: Any words that have a slash in them give the female eqivalent ending of the same word after it. By the way, these are the phonetic translations; you'd never understand the actual text unless you're really good, or a native speaker.) *Eesteh ehlehfthehross/ee;-Are you single? *Khronneeh pollah!-Happy Birthday! *Ahndeeo!-Goodbye! *Poo eeneh ee tooahlehtehss;-Where are the toilets? *Thah thehlahteh nah khorrehpsehteh;-Would you like to dance? *Borro nah sahss paho sto speetee sahss;-May I take you home? *Thah eethehlah meeah pehrookah.-I'd like a wig. *Thahlehteh nah moo pahrehteh mehrah;-Could you measure me? *Ehkho kahtee sto mahtee moo.-I've got something in my eye. *Prossokhee!-Look out! *Mahzehvee?-Will it shrink? *Borro nah ehkho meeah tsahndah pahrahkahlo;-May I have a bag, please? *Borreeteh nah moo ghrahpsehteh mehreekah eepnotteekah;-Can you prescribe some sleeping pills? *Dheeahskehdhahssah pollee.-I've enjoyed myself. *Ahploss keetahzo.-I'm just looking. *Tahksee!-Taxi! *Thelo nah ahghorrahsso khrommahteestah molleeveeah.-I want to buy some crayons. *Dhehn borro nah keemeetho.-I can't sleep. *Borro nah keetahkso stonn kahthrehftee;-May I look in a mirror? *To rahdheeo dhehn leetootyee.-The radio doesn't work. *Dhosteh moo meeah sokkollahtah, pahrahkahlo.-Give me some chocolate, please. *Kahlah khreestooyehnah!-Merry (Happy) Christmas! *Ehfteekheezmehnoss o kehnooryeeoss khronnoss!-Happy New Year! *Ehfkhahreesto pollee.-Thank you very much. *Ehyeeneh ehnah dheesteekheemah.-There has been an accident. *Ehkho ehnah speeree.-I've got a boil. *Thah moo peeteh poo nah kahtehvo;-Will you tell me when to get off? *Ehlpeezo nah ksahnah seenahdeethoomah.-I hope we'll meet again.
