뜻
To delay something to a later date.
문화적 배경
The 'Military Deferment' (Αναβολή Στρατού) is a major life event. Men often plan their entire 20s around when their deferment ends. Similar to Greece, military deferment is a common topic, but the bureaucratic terms can sometimes vary slightly in local dialect. Rescheduling is common and usually accepted if done with a polite 'αναβολή' request, reflecting a flexible approach to time. The Greek court system is famous for its many 'αναβολές', which can delay justice for years, a frequent topic of social critique.
Use 'παίρνω' for the Army
When talking about military service, always use 'παίρνω αναβολή' (I get a deferment) rather than 'κάνω'.
Don't say 'κάνω αργά'
English speakers often try to translate 'make it late'. This is incorrect. Use 'κάνω αναβολή'.

The 'Για' Rule
Always follow 'αναβολή' with 'για' + [time] to sound like a native speaker.
Politeness
Adding 'θα ήθελα να...' (I would like to...) before 'κάνω μια αναβολή' makes the request much more polite.
