Asking for airport location.
सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
Greeks often use hand gestures when giving directions. If they point 'straight', they might say 'ευθεία' with a sharp forward motion of the hand. The Athens airport is quite far from the city center (about 35km). When people ask this, they are often thinking about the Metro or the X95 bus. On smaller islands, the 'airport' might just be a tiny landing strip. Locals might just say 'πάνω' (up) if it's on a hill. In Cyprus, you might hear 'Πού έντζαι το αεροδρόμιο;' in heavy dialect, though standard Greek is understood.
Use 'Παρακαλώ'
Always add 'παρακαλώ' (please) at the end to sound more polite to locals.
The Accent Matters
In text messages, if you forget the accent on 'Πού', it looks like you're starting a relative clause.
