Gibros Panayi....

Now find me Marios who spells his name Stavroulla please....


Do you know this person? I know someone called Kypros and he spells his name like this, Kypros.


We had a Kyproulla ... at Greek School :D

Since you hate the letter G so much, may I take this opportunity to propose changing the word Greek to Kreek and the infamous G-string to K-string for our music lovers?

No. Why? Do you want to trace him and hurl abuse at him?

Anyway, perhaps you can ask the teachers at the North London Greek schools to start teaching the kids your new Gybraigo phonetic language ....

... I know what Kyria Sophia would tell you to do :lol:

V Poor. See me.


BTW, why would I ask a Greek school to teach Cypriot? Would a French school teach Romanian?

Because my Greek school, for example, was 99.5% full of Cypriots

(the unfortunate 0.5% Greek was me :lol: )

So if you want lots of Cypriots to teach Gypritsika to .... go to Greek school!

There's nothing wrong with learning a foreign language. The kids in my school learning French were English. Not one French kid.

No. You miss the point entirely. The idea is to make Cypriot accessible to the world.
