τι νέα; (ti nea?) [also: τι κάνεις; (ti kaneis?) πώς τα πας; (pos ta pas?) πώς πάει; (pos paei?)] Explanation: The most accurate Greek translation that matches the explanation you are giving is: Tι νέα; (ti nea?) (=what's new?) Nevertheless, in everyday language, when Greeks address other people and want to ask the same question ("what's up"), they also use the following phrases: Tι κάνεις; (ti kaneis?) (=how are you, but you also expect the person to tell you what's going on in his/her life) Πώς τα πας; (pos ta pas?)/Πώς πάει; (pos paei?) (=how are you doing?) Native Greek |
