Nice pack of nonsense. Taking the Greek τ as an example there is no exact equivalent in Latin characters or in any other language. The same applies to all languages how could you e.g. ever turn into latin the 5 different German e's or the Turkish i (without dot).

See what I mean when I say constipated skunk Kimon?

Well you're bound to remember this guy from class...

Re ambalade, stop polluting the forum with garbage!
Rules violated:

Gee. Thanks for telling me. BUT

What’s up Kimon? Have you gained extra courage to have a second go at replying here because that other Greek gymnasium

STFU you twit. Brrrrrritish brigade in this forum are going to tell us that we can only speak English now. Your mother is a bitz. Now give a witty retort about bitz, you sob.

What hypocrisy when you think of the GCs demanding enosis, now the shoe is on the other foot and the TCs are on the verge of enosis with Turkey they cry wolf, bloody hypocrites.

hypocrasy?

enosis, at least the kind you fear is wrong; plain and simple.

yet, with glee, according to you, the shoe is on the other foot; what is different?

TC/GC, too easy vp. Turks and "Turks" may be Turcophone, but they are not at all the same; i wish you would be more careful when writing, i find your generalisations sometimes, very much offending. i wish the Greeks, as well, who are not "Greek" would see the enemy within all of us, and refrain from acts which advance the proxy war that is being used to divide us. i take heart because it was not that long ago that "whites" and "blacks" were segregated, and that those who suffered we(a)re the innocent, people, Human Beings, who were white or/and black.

...what are you telling me vp? does our "Greekness" and "Turkishness" negate the possibility of Cypriots, as Greeks and Turks uniting toward this island's interest first?

...maybe Levent is the answer; after all, three's a charm you know. but i don't think so. that won't end the Kibrisli or silence them. they are a diaspora now, in this sense free from Turkey's assimilation, and they are watching from a place where their "Turkishness" is not judged, past the backwater that Cyprus was as Ottaman subjects, and past the Cold War that tore their life apart; they know about "Turks" and Turks, and "Greeks" and Greeks, they remember because they were robbed of the Cyprus they loved too, and they'll dare to resist if this distiction, being Cypriot, is dismissed and denied to them, now that they are Citizens of the World.

...enosis, a big word it seems, like Turkey and the EU, it's (imho) a good word, it means 'join'; enosis to me means any extension toward a greater Family of Man, where as Persons, Individuals celebrate their identities united, by demonstrating their efforts toward bettering the Universal Principals all People enjoy. as Cypriots we should be able to define this word by defining further, the words Bicommunal, and Bizonal: a State composed of its Federal Government, to defend the Individual Rights of all this island's Citizens as their Sovereign Representitive. Whereas (within this Sovereignty), the National Assemblies within their territorial Jurisdictions will provide for their electorate self-representation in providing the services they need for their daily lives, an identity as a Majority, as Persons that respect and recognise the special needs of the Minorites amongst them, while they serve their own agenda first.

...like, i worked hard for you this time vp, i hope you won't tell me you don't understand. will you join me in this thinking so that Cyprus is Free, and that its Citizens can live as they please. what's the dialog with you? will you freak out this crowd and write as a Cypriot first? my friend, that manifesto is your manifesto, i've told you that. you were the first, and after all these years, still fighting; now that's a lot of love: what about an hour of your time? as a Cypriot define for me, bullies, define the other people they do not represent. and define where i'm placed in the scale of GCs to TCs.

Cheers!

repulse as you know I generally do not respond to your posts because I have difficulty understanding your English but seeing as you wrote something directly as me I will try to respond to what I think you are trying to say.

I think you are saying enosis is good and the GCs fought to do this with the whole island isnt it hypocritical of GCs now who oppose enosis of only part of the island with Turkey? Thats what I mean about the shoe being on the other foot.

Nice pack of nonsense. Taking the Greek τ as an example there is no exact equivalent in Latin characters or in any other language. The same applies to all languages how could you e.g. ever turn into latin the 5 different German e's or the Turkish i (without dot).

See what I mean when I say constipated skunk Kimon?

Well you're bound to remember this guy from class...

GR why don't you tell everyone what percentage of your life you've spent and continue spending IN A CLASS?

What’s the problem Kimon, are you struggling with Cypriot?

Too many wet Spartan dreams have gotten your pea confused!

It’s spelt “Gobiaste” because that’s what it sounds like in speech and that’s the only (unwritten until now) “rule” when converting Greek to Roman characters so you’ll have to forget the Greek-gymnasium conversions you’ve picked up which are always wrong because these “Greeks” are genetically stupid and can’t pronounce English anyway.

I notice you post a fair amount of English spelling and grammar mistakes yourself so you need a tute more than most in English and Roman Cypriot!

Pay special attention to the differences between:

K > G Say “Gori” not “Kori” for girl.
T > D Say “Dora” not “Tora” for now.
P > B Say “Balavos” not “Palavos” for stupid.

PS: My wife and I are writing a book about the correct pronunciation of Cypriot with the single logical rule… write it just as it’s pronounced if foreigners are to correctly pick up the language, and others are to understand what you’re writing on the net, etc!

My dear GR (and Mrs GR)... delighted to hear of your endeavours, very delighted indeed. Spell it in English as it's actually pronounced, rather than by some obscure code drawn up by a combination of Western Classicists and Atheneucians a century ago for the Greek language. Excellent.
