خلفية ثقافية
The 'Πρότυπα Σχολεία' (Model Schools) are a significant part of the Greek educational identity, representing academic excellence and social mobility. In Greek administration, 'κατά το πρότυπο' is frequently used to describe the harmonization of Greek laws with EU directives. Iconography in Greece is strictly 'κατά το πρότυπο' of ancient traditions. Artists (hagiographers) must follow specific templates (anthivola) to maintain spiritual continuity. Greek startups often use this phrase to signal that they are adopting global best practices, often referring to 'Silicon Valley' as the ultimate model.
Use the Plural for Styles
When talking about a general style (like 'in the style of the 60s'), use the plural: 'στα πρότυπα της δεκαετίας του '60'.
Watch the Case
Never use the genitive after 'κατά' if you mean 'according to'. It's a common trap for advanced learners.
