معنی
Looking forward to something.
زمینه فرهنگی
Greek parents often place immense pressure on children to succeed academically, leading to the phrase 'έχω προσδοκίες' being a common part of household vocabulary. There is a general cultural cynicism towards political promises, often expressed by saying one has 'no expectations'. A host has the 'expectation' that a guest will enjoy themselves, and a guest 'expects' a high level of hospitality. In Greek business, expectations are often discussed indirectly at first, but 'έχω την προσδοκία' is used when formalizing agreements.
Use the Plural
In 90% of cases, 'έχω προσδοκίες' (plural) sounds more natural than the singular.
Don't sound like a robot
If you use this with your friends for small things, you'll sound like a textbook. Keep it for 'big' things.
