It’s very interesting the difference between the “mainland”Greek and the Cypriot one. Waiting for more videos about Cyprus and the Cypriot dialect, Σας ευχαριστώ
Cypriots are very good at code switching and even when deliberate asked to speak in Cypriot to καλαμαράες (Ελλαδίτες) will switch to Standard Modern Greek subconsciously to help comprehension. Evident a few times in this video (πχ "σκύλος" instead of "σιύλλος") and very interesting to observe!
I also noticed that at some points they noticed they'd said "και" and immediately corrected themselves by adding "τζιαι". It's not easy to be asked questions in one dialect and have to answer in another!
No wonder, they are taught standard Greek at school and they watch TV in standard Greek, read newspapers. However, there are some TV shows or series in Cypriot and many people use the dialect in social media and spoken language. The dialect will be spoken as long as there will be people who know it. Younger generation use it less than their parents and grandparents.
京都も訪れました！きれいな町ですよ。そこ、ギリシャに訪れたタクシいの運転者も会いました。楽しかったです。We also visited Kyoto. It's a beautiful city. We also met a taxi driver who had been to Greece there. We enjoyed it!
Cypriot Greek exists in spectrum with the Standard so there are moments that the speakers innately remove many elements of the dialect while speaking to the person who speaks the standard. Also the fact that some of the questions are made like an interview is important, Cypriots may switch closer to the standard, because it is viewed more of a formal setting requiring also some words which are more formal. A good example is the use of the word πολύ instead of Cypriot πολλά. Other examples: φας instead of φάεις, και instead of τζιαι, βρείς instead εύρεις, αυτό instead of τζιείνον and many many others, this are very unusual when speaking Cypriot Greek, not formal or with a standard Greek speaker.
Από την Κύπρο, Φυσικά ήταν η Μαρία και ο Ανδρέας... Προσπαθώ να μα μαθαίνω Ελληνικά επειδή η γυναίκα μου είναι Κυπρεια. Έχουν πολλές καθεμερινες διαφορετικές λεξιλογια και για αυτό είναι λίγο δύσκολο να μαθαίνω Κυπριακά από την Ελληνικά περιεχόμενο στον ιστο. Ευχαριστώ για το βίντεο.
I'm starting to learn Greek, but with Cyprus in mind, what's the best way to learn Cypriot, where and what to listen to? should we start with Greek first and focus on that, and then introduce Cypriot?
Μου φαίνεται ότι οι Κύπριοι ξέρουν τις διαλεκτικές τους λέξεις και τις λέξεις από την Ελλάδα, αλλά Δημήτρη (/Έλληνες) δεν ξέρεις(/ουν) τις κυπριακές λέξεις. Αλήθεια είναι ή όχι; Πολύ ωραίο βίντεο, όμορφη είναι η Ιαπωνία! Να 'σαι καλά.

there is also dialects within cyprus that you can tell what part of cyprus they come from.
Thank you, Dimitris and Easy Greek for the opportunity! Both Maria and I had a blast! 🤗

yes I noticed that too, so many "και" and "θα" 😂
@@EasyGreekVideos some other words like this: κάνουν, πηγαίνεις, λένε, έχει, πράγματα, quite a few double consonants missing

@ we do still use it a lot, it's just that it exists in a continuum with the standard
Easy Greek、奈良のお隣の京都から毎週見させていただいています😊 I watch Easy Greek from Kyoto next to Nara.

Amazing experience! Happy I was part of this 🎉
Imagine if you had taken part in the video as well ;)

💯 I noticed too. Subconscious code-switching.
There is a Greek Park in Tokyo in Higashi-Shinjuku the name of the park is called Koizumiyakumo Memorial Park.

Yes they are! Good thing you can buy food and feed them on-site.

I am typing in English about Cypriots in Cypriot about Japan on the Easy Greek Channel.

Ωραίο βίντεο παιδιά
the transcription of Greek Cypriot has a lot of mistakes, nonetheless cool idea!
Can you point out a few? We did our best to catch everything
