ολόκληρος, όλος (olokliros, olos-as in "the whole world")
ακέραιος, άθικτος (akereos, athiktos as in "not a glass was left whole when the children left")
πλήρης (pleris as in "whole milk")
σύνολο (sinolo, as in "as a whole")
γενικώς (yenikos, as in "on the whole")
Depending on the context, it's obvious that its meaning and translation varies.

If you mean Ancient Greek, and want the word for "whole", "complete", "entire" ~
Î¿Î»Î¿Ï (holos) from which we get words like hologram
