معنی
To affect how others perceive you.
زمینه فرهنگی
The 'volta' (evening stroll) was historically a way to see and be seen, essentially a ritual of making an impression on the community. In Greece, making a good impression often involves personal connection rather than just technical skill. Being 'sympathitikos' (likable) is key. Greek Instagram culture is very vibrant. The phrase 'για την εντύπωση' (for the impression) is often used to describe staged photos. A host makes a good impression by offering an abundance of food. Leaving a guest hungry would make a 'bad impression' on the family's honor.
Use Adjectives
Always try to pair 'εντύπωση' with an adjective like 'καλή', 'κακή', or 'τρομερή' to sound more natural.
The 'Surprise' Trap
Remember: 'Μου κάνει εντύπωση' = I am surprised. 'Κάνω εντύπωση' = I impress others. This is the #1 mistake!

Formal Alternative
In a formal essay, use 'προκαλώ εντύπωση' instead of 'κάνω' to sound more academic.
Don't be 'Dīthen'
Greeks value authenticity. If you try too hard to 'κάνεις εντύπωση', you might be labeled 'δήθεν' (pretentious).

10 سوالNot usually. For a strong smell, you'd say 'μου έκανε εντύπωση η μυρωδιά' (the smell surprised me), but the smell itself doesn't 'make an impression' in the social sense.

The direct opposite is 'κάνω κακή εντύπωση' or 'κάνω αρνητική εντύπωση'.
No, we don't say 'η εντύπωση έγινε'. We use 'δημιουργήθηκε η εντύπωση' (the impression was created).
