Answer 4

Hello - kalimera (good morning), kalispera (good afternoon, evening).
Goodbye - I can't remember but kalinikta is goodnight.
Thank you - efgharisto (gh is a soft form of the ch in Scottish loch, like Spanish g before e and i (in Gerona for example) and the emphasis is at the end, on o (which is not oh but as in log).
Yes - ne (believe it or not).
No - ochi (hard ch as in loch or Castilian Spanish j)
Dunno the others. Parakelo is please (emphasis on o again).
Pu? - Where?
Nero -water.
Doulios - work (d is soft th as in the)
Sega, sega - slowly, slow down, take it easy.
Andaxi - OK, no problem, don't worry about it.

That's about all I needed when I worked there for three months!
