Μητέρα (Mitera)


Explanation:
Είσαι μητέρα αν έχεις παιδιά = You are a mother if you have children
Γίνεσαι μητέρα όταν αποκτάς παιδιά / κάνεις παιδί = You become a mother when you have children / when you have a child
You can't translate this word for word, so that's why I propose the above translations.
