अक्सर पूछे जाने वाले सवाल
5 सवालNot really. For a test drive, use 'κάνω test drive' or 'δοκιμάζω το αυτοκίνητο'. 'Βάζω σε δοκιμασία' implies you are trying to see if the car breaks under extreme conditions.
Mostly, yes, because it implies stress. However, it can be positive in a 'heroic' sense, like a challenge that makes you stronger.
'Δοκιμή' is a neutral test (like a trial version of an app). 'Δοκιμασία' is a difficult trial or ordeal.
No, that sounds like a literal translation from English and is not natural in Greek.
Use the passive: 'Μπήκα σε δοκιμασία' or 'Υποβλήθηκα σε δοκιμασία'.
