Asking about duration.
Kultureller Hintergrund
Time is often flexible. Don't be surprised if 'Πόσο χρόνο;' results in a vague answer. Similar usage to Greece, but with a slightly more relaxed pace. Often mixed with English, e.g., 'Πόσο χρόνο θα πάρει το drive;' In business, this phrase is used to set firm deadlines.
Gender check
Always match the interrogative to the noun's gender if you change the noun.
Use 'Πόση ώρα'
If you forget the gender rule, 'Πόση ώρα' is very safe and common.
