意味
Talking about family.
文化的背景
Siblings often live in the same 'polykatoikia' (apartment building), with different floors for each sibling's family. Inheritance laws historically favored the eldest daughter in some islands, creating unique sibling dynamics. The phrase 'αδέρφια' is used to refer to all fellow Greeks abroad, emphasizing a shared ethnic 'womb'. Monks and nuns refer to each other as 'αδελφέ' and 'αδελφή', using the formal 'λ' version.
Use the 'ρ' version
Stick to 'αδέρφια' with a 'ρ' in conversation. Using 'αδέλφια' (with 'λ') can sound a bit stiff or like you're reading from a textbook.
Don't forget the article
When talking about them later, use the article: 'Τα αδέρφια μου' (My siblings).

よくある質問
5 問Yes, 'αδέρφια' is gender-neutral in the plural. However, if you only have sisters, saying 'Έχω δύο αδερφές' is more precise.
No, it's the standard modern Greek word. 'Αδέλφια' is the formal/archaic version.
You say 'Έχω έναν μεγαλύτερο αδερφό'.
You still use 'αδέρφια'. If you need to be specific, you can say 'ετεροθαλή αδέρφια', but that's very formal.
Family is very important in Greek culture. It's a way to understand your roots and social circle.
