意思
Command.
文化背景
Electricity is expensive in Greece, so 'Κλείσε το φως' is often said with a sense of urgency or as a reminder to be thrifty. During the 'mesimeri' (afternoon nap), it is culturally expected to turn off lights and close shutters to maintain a cool environment. Some older Greeks believe leaving a light on in an empty room 'calls' bad luck or spirits, though this is fading in modern times. In apartment buildings (polykatoikies), there is often a timer for hallway lights, so you don't need to 'close' them; they turn off automatically.
Use 'Σβήσε' too
Don't worry if you hear 'Σβήσε' (Svíse). It means the same thing and is very common.
Don't forget 'το'
Saying 'Κλείσε φως' sounds like 'Close light' and is grammatically incomplete in Greek.
