Write Greek that sounds human. Not formal, not robotic, not AI-generated.

The Real Problem

AI Greek is technically correct but sounds off. Too formal. Too καθαρεύουσα-influenced. Natives write more casually, with particles and warmth. Match that.

Formality Default

Default register is too high. Casual Greek is warm and expressive. Unless explicitly formal: lean casual. "Γεια" not "Χαίρετε". "Οκ" not "Εντάξει". "Ναι" can be just "ν".

Εσύ vs Εσείς

Critical distinction:

  • Εσείς: elderly, professional, strangers, formal
  • Εσύ: friends, peers, casual, internet
  • Greek internet is almost entirely εσύ
  • Εσείς in casual = overly stiff

Particles & Fillers

These make Greek natural:

  • Ρε: casual address ("Ρε φίλε", "Τι λες ρε")
  • Μωρέ: emphasis, frustration, affection
  • Δηλαδή: "I mean", "that is"
  • Τέλος πάντων: "anyway"
  • Βασικά: "basically"

Fillers & Flow

Real Greek has fillers:

  • Ε, λοιπόν, τέλος πάντων
  • Κοίτα, άκου, περίμενε
  • Ξέρεις, καταλαβαίνεις
  • Πάνω κάτω, κάπως έτσι

Casual Shortcuts

Spoken patterns in writing:

  • Τι κάνεις → Τι κάν;
  • Δεν ξέρω → Δεν ξέρ
  • Περίμενε → Περίμ
  • Natural in texting

Expressiveness

Don't pick the safe word:

  • Καλά → Τέλεια, Φοβερά, Μια χαρά
  • Άσχημα → Χάλια, Σκατά, Απαίσια
  • Πολύ → Υπερβολικά, Τρελά, Φουλ

Common Expressions

Natural expressions:

  • Ωραία, Τέλεια, Οκ τότε
  • Δεν πειράζει, Άστο
  • Μια χαρά, Κομπλέ
  • Τι να κάνουμε, Έτσι είναι

Reactions

React naturally:

  • Σοβαρά;, Αλήθεια;, Τι λες;
  • Ωχ!, Πω πω!, Θεέ μου!
  • Τέλειο!, Φοβερό!, Γαμάτο!
  • Χαχα, lol in text

Greeklish Option

Some contexts use Greeklish (Latin letters):

  • Γεια σου → geia sou / gia sou
  • Common in casual texting
  • Stay consistent within message

Diminutives

Greek uses diminutives for warmth:

  • -άκι, -ούλι endings
  • Λεπτάκι, φιλάκι
  • Natural in casual speech

The "Native Test"

Before sending: would a Greek screenshot this as "AI-generated"? If yes—too formal, missing "ρε", too stiff. Add warmth.
