Preference.
زمینه فرهنگی
The sun is considered a source of 'kefi' (joy/spirit). A sunny day is often called 'theos' (godly) weather. In Cyprus, the sun is even more intense. People often say 'Μου αρέσει ο ήλιος' but will strictly stay in the shade between 12 PM and 4 PM. Learners from countries like England or Sweden often use this phrase with a sense of relief when they arrive in Greece. The sun was associated with Apollo, the god of light, music, and healing. Liking the sun was seen as liking the truth.
The 'M'are-si' Shortcut
Greeks almost always contract 'Μου αρέσει' to 'Μ' αρέσει' in casual speech. Try it to sound more native!
The Article is Key
Never forget the 'ο' before 'ήλιος'. Without it, the sentence sounds incomplete to a Greek ear.
