darkriver Who speaks modern Greek? song translation needed (20) RE: Who speaks modern Greek? song translation needed 16 Apr 03


Let me go out on a limb and hazard a guess.

koritsi = woman, in the sense of bird, girl, wench
omorpho = beautiful, good-looking
mageuo = to charm, beguile, bewitch, enchant, entrance, ravish
         (I know these aren't really equivalent)

Therefore, Me magepse ena omorfo koritsi = "A beautiful wench bewitches me"

Otherwise, maybe "My magpie's in a morphological chorus"
