Εστια underrated
My mother used to have a bust of Hestia at the entrance of our apartment.
Great format. Why? Because you get to meet real people ( Greek speaking, Greek heritage) and see and hear their reactions, sometimes quite hilarious 😂, in real Greek, comfortably paced and not the language of the Tourist. What I find extremely helpful is the Greek and the English translation together. You have no idea how labour intensive that is for me to achieve. This makes it so much more fun to learn.
Thank you so much for the comment! So glad you enjoy! Marilena
This is one of the most interesting ones
Thank you!
Ευχαριστουμε!!
What I find interesting is the way you can reverse a sentence in Greek and it is still grammatical. Maybe you could do a video on this topic.
Because of declensions like German?
@@GabrielSantos-bc6bw Exactly! Wherever the word is, you still know if it's a subject or object.
Greek its so damn beautiful...it does represent the true lenguague of the gods hehe
Thank you! 🇬🇷🇬🇷 marilena
When humanity understands the value of Greece, then it will be a planet inhabited by gods.
Amén
That was a very interesting video about the Greek gods!!! Thanks!!! 😉🙂
Nice episode. I would enjoy a video about the longest greek words like for example in this video I found apomagnitofonisis 😅 greek sometimes has realllly long words.
Good idea! It's not as extreme in Greek as it is in German, though! Look up el.wikipedia.org/wiki/%CE%9B%CE%BF%CF%80%CE%B1%CE%B4%CE%BF%CF%84%CE%B5%CE%BC%CE%B1%CF%87%CE%BF%CF%83%CE%B5%CE%BB%CE%B1%CF%87%CE%BF%CE%B3%CE%B1%CE%BB%CE%B5%CE%BF%CE%BA%CF%81%CE%B1%CE%BD%CE%B9%CE%BF%CE%BB%CE%B5%CE%B9%CF%88%CE%B1%CE%BD%CE%BF%CE%B4%CF%81%CE%B9%CE%BC%CF%85%CF%80%CE%BF%CF%84%CF%81%CE%B9%CE%BC%CE%BC%CE%B1%CF%84%CE%BF%CF%83%CE%B9%CE%BB%CF%86%CE%B9%CE%BF%CE%BA%CE%B1%CF%81%CE%B1%CE%B2%CE%BF%CE%BC%CE%B5%CE%BB%CE%B9%CF%84%CE%BF%CE%BA%CE%B1%CF%84%CE%B1%CE%BA%CE%B5%CF%87%CF%85%CE%BC%CE%B5%CE%BD%CE%BF%CE%BA%CE%B9%CF%87%CE%BB%CE%B5%CF%80%CE%B9%CE%BA%CE%BF%CF%83%CF%83%CF%85%CF%86%CE%BF%CF%86%CE%B1%CF%84%CF%84%CE%BF%CF%80%CE%B5%CF%81%CE%B9%CF%83%CF%84%CE%B5%CF%81%CE%B1_...
otorinolarigologos is one of my favourites😂 it’s the type of doctor who treats the nose, ears & throat area
Wtf 😅 the only word I can understand out of this word is "kranio" so it probably is a disease of the head? 🤔
@@EasyGreekVideos Not only the length of the words but also the incredible length of sentences, which only make sense by the verb that is placed at the very end of the sentence. If Greek is like that then I'm giving up now!
@@keyp554 kranio is the skull itself
Ένα πολύ αστείο επεισόδιο!
Πρέπει να ομολογήσω ότι τα ήξερα όλα, διάβασα πρόσφατα για αυτό το θέμα (και πάλι). 😊
I just loved It thank You! Keep doing videos with this theme.
Thanks! Marilena
I love You guys!!
Dionysus was not a member of the pantheon. However after his religion was restored by Queen Thessaloniki he was one of the most worshipped gods.
Dimitra (Demeter) was not the most boring of the gods at least for the ancients as because of her sadness for her daughter Persephone, the weather was changing and winter was coming. Also she was the one who killed the powerful Titan Athos (according to the myth in the place where the mountain Athos is in Greece) in the war between the Gods and the Titans.
Εστία Hestia was greatly worshipped. There was not a single house in ancient Greece without an icon of the goddess of the family and housing.
Thank you !Marilena
*_EASY GREEK. HARD QUESTIONS._*
Θυμάμαι πολύ καλά πως όταν τα μαθαίναμε στο σχολείο αντί για την Εστία είχαμε τον Διόνυσο.
Can’t be the only one reading Percy Jackson trying to find out how any of the names are pronounced 😂 love this
I am glad there's someone having Hera as their favorite same here!
Ως Δημήτριος, είμαι φαν της Δήμητρας, μην την υποτιμάτε! 😋 Επίσης δεν υπήρχαν ντομάτες επί...Δήμητρας!😂Ήρθαν απ'την Αμερική!
Ούτε πατάτες ! (Αχ Καποδίστρια τι κόλπα έκανες για την ένταξη της στο ρεπερτόριο της ελληνικής αγροτιάς..)
επισης δεν υπηρχε η Δημητρα επι Δημητρας
Σας βλέπουμε και οι Έλληνες που δεν μας νοιάζει να μάθουμε τη γλώσσα. 😊
Ευχαριστούμε!
Τα βλέπω γιατί μ' αρέσουν οι συνεντεύξεις και τα παιδιά είναι συμπαθητικά, σαν παρέα.

Παίδες στο 5:01 κάνατε ένα typo, αντί για "god of love" έχετε γράψει "god of live" :) , παρεπιπτόντως είμαι Έλληνας αλλά μαρεσουν αυτά τα βίντεο
(Επίσης σορρυ για την προφίλ μου το ξέρω πως είναι παράξενη)
Σ' ευχαριστώ για τη διόρθωση. Πάντα μας ξεφεύγει κανένα τέτοιο λαθάκι. Γκρ.
το γλυκό Hephaestus lol
He is the O G that wears the black meme sunglasses
And also the only one that can forge these legendary sunglasses !
An expert in crafting and brazilian jiu jitsu, his effort's reminds me of the phrase from the Bhagavad Gita. Something like " you have the right to your actions but not to the fruit of your actions".
This is the proper spirit of work , not being anxious for results, focus on doing a good job,
start a heavy metal or heavy jazz band called Hammers of Hephaestus... and so on...
Ανθρωποι ! good job as always and a good crew you have here : )
Love this comment!
Πάντα τέλεια επεισόδια. Μπραβο παιδια!
Ευχαριστούμε!
Zeus the rapist - i love her!
😉😉❤️
Μπραβο, Σουπερ, Υπεροχο, Πολυ μου άρεσε τουτο επισοδιο
What I love about Greek is that all the words of ancient Greek origin that we take for granted in other languages are nothing alike their modern Greek equivalents
name one of those words
Give an example
?????
I've noticed, here and other sources, Zeus i usually said/spelled Διας but can also be Ζεύς. Can anyone explain the different version, and why the 'δ ' version is more common in modern Greek? Thank you.
Because in modern greek many objects in its nominative case are based to the type of accusative case of ancient greek. In ancient Greek is "Ο Ζευς" in nominative "τον Δια" in accusative case. So Zeus in modern greek is Διας. Also is very common to use in modern greek both the types of the modern and the ancient. E.g. The genitive in ancient is του Διός and in modern is του Δία, but we use both of the types in every day use. In some other cases the ancient type is used mostly in formal speech. There is no rule to do that just it happens and basically you have to be native to follow the "rule"
@@takater9426 Thank you, I vaguely understand! I need to brush up on definitions of cases lol but I understand loosely.
What takater said!
@@EasyGreekVideos 😆
@Πασιφάη The letter «ζ» was originally used for the double consonant «σδ»(sd/zd).
So Zeus was actually once pronounced like "Zdeus".
In modern Greek traces of that can also still be found. For example, in ancient Greek there was the ionic spelling «μαζός» (masdós), meaning "breast". The doric spelling was μασδός and in modern Greek we would say «μαστός» as in the attic Greek manner.
You forgot Testicles, he hanged with the best of them!
2:55 την αγαπώ
💕💕
Φιλιππίδης και έτσι δηλαδή?
Zeus
Poseidon
Apollo
Ares
Hermes
Hephaestus
Hera
Athena
Aphrodite
Artemis
Demeter
Estia
Έπαιξα μόνη μου, πριν δω το βίντεο. Τα έγραψα σε χαρτάκι.
Δέκα στα Δώδεκα! Ξέχασα τη Δήμητρα (και δε θέλω σχόλια :P ) και την Εστία. Έγραψα το Διόνυσο και τον Άδη.
So, I played alone, before watching the video. I wrote the names on a paper. Ten out of twelve. I forgot Demetra and Estia (please, don't make comments on that :P ). I wrote Dionisus and Hades instead.
🎉
Δεν θυμήθηκα τον Διόνυσο και την Εστία. Επειδή είμαι πολύ εγωιστής απαιτήσεις οι θεοί να γίνουν δέκα.
Hey guys, whats happening? Wheres the new video??? What Im gonna do with my life without new easy greek videos? 😯
Hi! We're taking a break. We posted about it a few weeks ago. We'll be back with a new video on August 31st!
Which of these two should be included in the Olympians: Estia or Dionysos?
Hestia, I believe Dionysos was the God of Alcohol/wine.
Unfortunately it looks as if modern society is moving towards the values of Dionysus rather than those of Hestia. A pity ...
Both
Depending on the myth/list you look at, it's either one or the other but either of them should count when listing the Olympians, I think .
Ο πρώτος που μου έρχεται στο μυαλό είναι ο Δίας γιατί πάντα γ😐αι
Any astronomy nerd can easily say all 12 (either Greek or Roman forms) lol
True!! Marilena
@@EasyGreekVideos
Greek: Zeus, Hera, Poseidon, Athena, Aphrodite, Hephaestus, Hermes, Artemis, Apollon, Demeter, Ares, Hestia/Dionysus
Roman: Jupiter, Juno, Neptune, Minerva, Venus, Vulcan, Mercury, Diana, Apollo, Ceres, Mars, Vesta/Bacchus
κάνω έρευνα για το 12θεο και τις επιμέρους θεότητες για ένα μελλοντικό βίντεο και προσπάθησα μόνη μου να θυμηθώ τους θεούς και δε θυμόμουν αν ο Άδης είναι διαφορετικός απο τον Πλούτωνα και άν ο Διόνυσος είναι στους 12.
Συμφωνώ ότι η Εστία είναι underrated, στο σχολείο με το ζόρι την αναφέραμε.
Θυμαμαι ο Πλούτωνας ήταν ο θεός του κατω κόσμου, ο οποίος κατω κόσμος λεγόταν Άδης. Μετά πια 'εγιναν ενα...
6:28
Dionísio não é considerado um dos doze?
Ancient Romans ready to steal all those Gods lol
is logical that due to all the tv shows, comics, movies and video games, is funny how mythology is more popular with non natives than with natives?!... except for the locals that craft pretty souvenir figurines of the gods! well thats my point of view and why I am learning greek¡!
I wouldn't say they're more popular with non-natives than with natives. With Greeks, you sort of expect everyone to know everything about Greek mythology, whereas with non-natives it's mostly people who're really into history/mythology who have deep knowledge about it and know more than just the basics.
I'd say, as a whole, a bigger percentage of Greeks are knowledgeable in Greek mythology than non-natives, but because there's the expectation that all Greeks should be experts in it (which just isn't true and would be impossible to be true), the false impression is given that there's not much interest in Greek mythology here.
@@EasyGreekVideos That's really nice to know!! so true that it gets the wrong impression, but with this first hand info, everything is cleared up! so thank you for the deep insight, and congratulations for keeping up with the educational and fascinating content as always! ;)
Κουκάκι σ'αγαπώ!!
Ναι είναι από τις πιο όμορφες γειτονιές!! Μαριλένα
God of war has proved to be useful somehow xd.
how do live in Greece and not know the Olympians.
Συγγνώμη αλλά ο Διόνυσος ήταν ολύμπιος θεός και πήρε τη θέση της Εστίας στα νεώτερα κείμενα.
As I saw that you mentiion Dionysus it cannot be wrong when we talk about mythology.
3:25
Φαν της Αθήνας και του Ερμή!
😏😏😊 Μαριλένα
why would you not include Hades???
He doesn't live on Olympus, but in the underworld!
@@EasyGreekVideos hes still a god
and still Olympian
@@skyline3230 there are a lot of greek gods, but the question was only about the 12 they used to live in the mount Olympus. Hades used to live in the underground, so he is not included
''βαρετος, βαρετη. βαρετος θεος.'' πρεπει να μπει στη θεολογικη ορολογια ο ορος :P :P

Is it true you do not study philosophy at school???
Not all students study philosophy at school, only those that want to go into the humanities & education.
Πςςς Μιχαήλ τονας 😂😂
Αν δεν κάνω λάθος, η Εστία δεν έμενε στον Όλυμπο, αντίθετα ο Διόνυσος έμενε.
Δεν είμαι σίγουρη για αυτό.. Μαριλένα
Προσωπικά μπέρδεμα πάντα τον Απόλλωνα με τον Διόνυσο
Προσωπικά ντρέπομαι λίγο. Δεν μπορώ να ακούω ότι κάποιος είναι Έλληνας χωρίς να θυμάται ΤΟΥΛΑΧΙΣΤΟΝ 8 από τους 12 Θεούς
Αφού θυμόμουν τους μισους πάλι καλά 😂
They forgot on Gaia? 🤨😁
Titan
Ο ΔΙΑΣ ΕΙΝΑΙ Ο ΠΑΤΕΡΑΣ Ο ΜΕΓΑΛΟΣ Ο ΠΑΝΤΟΚΡΑΤΩΡΑΣ ΟΥΡΑΝΙΟ ΚΑΙ ΓΗΣ ΚΑΙ ΔΕΝ ΚΑΤΟΙΚΗ ΣΤΟΥΣ ΔΩΔΕΚΑ . ΔΙΑΣ ΔΙΟΣ ΘΕΟΣ .
You don't pronounce H letter in Greek?
We have an "H". We just don't use that Erasmian Heavy Breathing Mark at the Beginning of names & words
You forgot Hercules Phil and Meg 🙃
those aren't the 12 gods of Mount Olympus
😍🏳️🌈
I have no idea what they were naming??? What is a Greek God? I have heard of Aphrodite but I thought that she was a very beautiful woman. And I thought Poseidon is what you call the planet Neptune in Greek. It would have been good if you could have explained a bit about what a Greek God is supposed to be. I am an Atheist so I don't believe in God, but are these "Gods" meant to be people who existed or imaginary fairies who had powers like "God"???
For the Ancient Greeks, they did exist. They were immortals with supernatural powers, if you want to put it like that. They weren't purely immaterial as the monotheistic God is supposed to be. But they weren't people, either. For example, Aphrodite wasn't a very beautiful woman, she was the personification of beauty and love. Poseidon was the personification of water and the sea. So, if there was a storm, Poseidon must have been angry that day. Very roughly.
Thank you for your reply but I still don't understand what anyone thinks of when they talk about a Greek God or maybe its like the Christian God... Noone really knows what they mean, everyone imagines something different... A man in the sky, a fairy, Jesus, a white cloud.... Maybe it's the same with the Greek Gods... But I just can't understand what the people in this video were naming???
@@tychophotiou6962 It's mythology, people back then had different concepts about religion and the sacred than we do today!
@@tychophotiou6962 In greek myths there ar3 12 gods who were believed to reside on Mount olympus. Those are the ones they try to list
Atheist or not, I have a hard time believing you’ve never heard of the Greek gods. That’s like saying you don’t know what McDonald’s is🙄
