معنی
Conversing formally.
زمینه فرهنگی
A 'syzitisi' is almost never done without a coffee (frappe, freddo, or Greek coffee). The duration of the coffee is the duration of the discussion. Greeks are famous for having loud, passionate 'syzitiseis' about politics in public spaces. It might look like an argument to outsiders, but it's often just a standard discussion. In traditional families, a 'syzitisi' with the patriarch or matriarch is a formal event where important decisions (marriage, property) are finalized. The concept of 'Dialogue' is central to Greek identity, tracing back to Plato's Dialogues. Modern Greeks still value the ability to debate logically.
The 'Make' Rule
Always remember: in Greek, you BUILD a discussion with the verb 'to make' (κάνω).
Don't over-formalize
If you just want to chat about a movie, say 'μιλάω για την ταινία'. 'Κάνω συζήτηση' makes it sound like a film critique session.
