معنی
A situation where people are angry or stressed.
زمینه فرهنگی
In Greek politics, 'τεταμένο κλίμα' is a staple of the evening news. It reflects the country's history of passionate political engagement and frequent social demonstrations. The phrase is frequently used in the context of the 'Cyprus Problem' to describe the state of negotiations between the two communities. Greeks value personal relationships at work. When the 'klima' is 'tetameno', it is often seen as a failure of the 'parea' (the group) to maintain harmony. Historically, the concept of 'tension' was also used in theological debates, which were often very 'tetamena' in the streets of Constantinople.
Use with 'λόγω'
Always follow this phrase with 'λόγω' + genitive to sound like a native speaker explaining the cause of the tension.
Not for Weather
If you say 'το κλίμα είναι τεταμένο' during a storm, people will look for a political reason for your stress!

The Power of Silence
In Greece, a 'tetameno klima' is often characterized by a lack of the usual loud, friendly chatter. Silence is the biggest clue.
