뜻
Long distance.
문화적 배경
On islands, distance is measured in 'time on a boat' or 'winding roads'. A place that looks close on a map might be 'μακριά' because of the mountains. In Athens, 'μακριά' is often a synonym for 'in another traffic zone'. People might avoid meeting if it's 'μακριά' due to the 1-hour commute. If you ask a local if their home is far, they might say 'δεν είναι μακριά' just to encourage you to visit, even if it's a long walk! The concept of 'Makria' is central to songs about emigration (Xenitia). It represents the painful distance from the motherland.
The 'Apo' Rule
Always remember to use 'από' (from) if you want to say what the place is far from.
Don't decline!
Never change the ending of 'μακριά'. It's an adverb, so it's 'frozen' in that form.

Use 'πολύ' for impact
Greeks love emphasis. Saying 'είναι πολύ μακριά' sounds much more natural than just 'είναι μακριά' when discussing long distances.
