Bosnians and Serbians also use the word as in Kele Kule.

You can look it up. Very interesting. Oracle would love it. :lol:

I have no doubt all these words derive from the Kephali / Cephalic original Greek for head .... no surprises that any of these places have words beginning with K for head ..... be it divergent or coincidental convergent :roll:

I just checked my emails...so just a quick note before I go back to what I have to do for tonight....

Kelejis .... means someone who has a big head....its used also as a stubborn man (as DT already said) I dont know any other use of this word as far as I remember now.

Bubbles mou I really dont have the time...if I did I was going to translate it for you. If you want I can do it on Saturday. Do you want me to do that for you? It will be my pleasure.

As for you Epsilon....san tin Kypro den exei....alla kai san tous Kupraious. You wont find elsewhere people like us. We are who we are with our good and bad things. And I dont want to be anyone else....I am happy and pleased that God made me Cypriot. . . and that He made Cypriots the way they are.
