뜻
To be completely devoted or committed to a task or a person.
문화적 배경
The phrase reflects the 'holistic' view of the person in Greek philosophy and theology, where soul and body are not just parts, but a unified whole. The dative 'σώματι' is a linguistic survival from the liturgy and ecclesiastical texts, giving it a 'sacred' feel. In modern Greece, using this phrase in a CV or interview signals not just hard work, but a deep, almost spiritual passion for one's profession.
Master the Dative
Even though Modern Greek doesn't use the dative, memorizing 'σώματι' as a single block will make you sound like a native speaker with a high education level.
Don't Overuse
Using this phrase more than once in a conversation makes it lose its power. Save it for your 'closing statement' or a moment of deep sincerity.

자주 묻는 질문
2 질문No, it's not a typo! It's the Ancient Greek dative case. In this specific idiom, we keep the old form to maintain its formal and traditional character.
Yes, you can use it with 'υπηρετώ' (to serve), 'αφοσιώνομαι' (to be dedicated), or 'εργάζομαι' (to work), but 'δίνομαι' is the most common.
