Man, these people love women. Makes you happy to be alive. Listening to their gorgeous words as I type.
Ok, back to work: It's okay to ask me publicly if you have questions about the tees. You can publish your entire book, line by line, verse by verse, on a t-shirt.
Or, if you own the art in your children's book, you can put one page a day on a t-shirt, and write, "from the book" _____
We gotta get those kids reading. Entice them to want more.

Would I be right in transliterating that "Omorphia Mou" and assuming the song is "the shape of you" by Ed Sheeran?

Ah. As you know, the Greek root -morph- comes into English as "shape" (amorphous, shapeless; metamorphosis, changing shape -- lit. "beyond shapes", etc). So I looked for a song title with "shape" in it. Omorphia Mou -- I'll remember that...

What really impresses people is a non-Greek who speaks Greek. Come on, Kevin, you can do it. |

At first I thought his name was Panos Phaltes but I see that it is Psaltis. I got Psi confused with Phi. So his name would translate "Singer." (very appropriate). |

Should a need ever arise I'm sure you'd learn it quickly.
That being said, you know more than you think. Take, for example, the word "diaphanous." You know that word. It's Greek. Similarly, we use biblical expressions every day and we do not know the source: "Let your light shine": Matthew 5:16

Kevin, I thought about your response for over ten hours. And, the result? I cannot control myself. My true answer, after so many hours of thinking, is still: What are you talking about?!
What is Eurovision nonsense? This is a great song. It's not British. It is Greek. A gorgeous, perfect song. Embrace the difference. Or not. But I'm not going to debate the merits of the song. Seesh. Eurovison!? That guy is a hunk and his song is heaven! Ok, back to being a civil adult.  |

I thought I read Pilate for a second there. Psaltis means someone who sings the bible verses in church, when the priest pauses. Can't recall the term in English or know if it even exists. What is the term, if anyone knows...? |
