뜻
Feeling unwell or ill
문화적 배경
The 'Evil Eye' (Mati) is often considered a cause for sudden sickness. If someone feels sick after receiving a compliment, they might be 'matiasmenos'. Chicken soup (kotopoula) and mountain tea (tsai tou vounou) are the primary home remedies. Greeks rarely rely solely on pills for minor illnesses. The word 'Περαστικά' is so culturally ingrained that it is used even for minor things like a sneeze or a small scratch. Family involvement is high. If a young person is 'árrostos', parents or grandparents will likely visit with food and check on them constantly.

The Magic Word
If someone tells you they are sick, say 'Perastika' immediately. It shows you care and know Greek etiquette.
