意思
To have much work left to finish a task.
文化背景
In Greek offices, saying 'έχω δρόμο ακόμα' is a common way to signal that you are busy and shouldn't be interrupted with new tasks. Students often use this during the 'Panhellenic Exams' period to describe the immense amount of material they still need to cover. A host might use this if a guest asks if the food is ready, implying they should relax and have another drink. Commentators use it when a team is winning but the game isn't over, warning against overconfidence.
Use it for Humility
If someone praises your work, use this phrase to show you are still striving for excellence. It's a very 'Greek' social move.
Don't use with 'Είμαι'
Remember, you HAVE road, you aren't road. 'Είμαι δρόμο' is a common English-speaker mistake.

The 'Bread' Alternative
If you want to sound more 'street' or informal, try 'έχω ψωμί ακόμα' (I still have bread). It's the same meaning but more colorful.
