معنی
Stop doing this.
زمینه فرهنگی
In Greece, 'φτάνει πια' is often accompanied by a specific gesture: a sharp downward movement of the hand, as if cutting something off. Cypriot Greek speakers use the phrase similarly, but might also use 'Φτάνει ως δαμαί' (Enough until here) for a more local flavor. In Greek-American or Greek-Australian communities, 'φτάνει πια' is one of the few phrases that persists even when the rest of the conversation is in English. The phrase is a staple of Greek political rhetoric, used by opposition parties to signal that the public's patience with the current government has run out.
The Intonation Trick
To sound like a native, drop the pitch of your voice significantly on the word 'πια'. It adds a sense of finality.
Don't Overuse It
If you say 'φτάνει πια' for every little thing, it loses its power. Save it for when you are truly annoyed.

The 'Enough' of Hospitality
When a Greek host offers you more food, saying 'φτάνει πια' is too aggressive. Just say 'Ευχαριστώ, είμαι εντάξει' (Thanks, I'm okay).
