معنی
To leave something valuable for future generations.
زمینه فرهنگی
In Greek politics, leaders often speak of their 'parakatathiki' to justify their actions to history. It is a way of framing their policies as part of a national tradition. The Church uses this term to describe the 'Sacred Tradition' (Ιερά Παρακαταθήκη) passed down from the Apostles. It implies that the faith is a treasure that must be kept unchanged. Teachers are often told they leave a 'parakatathiki' in the souls of their students. It emphasizes the moral responsibility of the educator beyond just teaching facts. In antiquity, 'parakatatheke' was a legal contract of trust. If you left your shield with a friend, it was a parakatatheke. Betraying this trust was a crime against the gods.
Use with Adjectives
Always pair it with an adjective like 'πνευματική' (spiritual) or 'πολιτική' (political) to sound more natural and precise.
Avoid Overuse
Because it is a 'heavy' phrase, using it too often makes your speech sound like a funeral oration. Save it for truly significant topics.

No, a living person can leave a legacy when they retire or finish a major project.
The plural is 'παρακαταθήκες,' but the singular is much more common when referring to a person's total legacy.
