Έχουμε χρόνο

We have time

意味

Indicating no rush.

🌍

文化的背景

The 'siga-siga' (slowly-slowly) mindset is a core part of Greek identity. 'Έχουμε χρόνο' is the verbal expression of this refusal to be enslaved by the clock. Similar to Greece, but often even more relaxed. In Cyprus, 'έχουμε χρόνο' might mean a deadline is merely a suggestion. This phrase links Greece to Italy, Spain, and Southern France, where the afternoon 'siesta' or long lunch is respected. Even in the age of smartphones, Greeks use 'έχουμε χρόνο' in texts to signal that they are not upset if someone is 10 minutes late.

💡

Add 'ακόμα'

Adding 'ακόμα' (akoma) makes you sound much more natural. 'Έχουμε ακόμα χρόνο' is the most common way to say this.

⚠️

Don't use 'the'

Avoid saying 'Έχουμε τον χρόνο'. In Greek, we usually omit the article in this specific idiom.
