I'm in the USA and I just met a beautiful first-generation Cypriot woman. She speaks fluently in several languages.
I'd like to impress her at least a tiny little bit--at least show her that I have taken a little effort.

I want to tell her, as politely and semi-formally as possibly:

"You bring beauty and and sunshine to my day." or something very similar.

Because I see her in a work situation, I must deliver this line in a written note.

Can anyone help me translate into Gibreiga?

Thank you.

I'd be very careful....just avoid the following phrases
"eho tria orchidea!"
"Oréa viziá."

and similar.

That's so sweet but what you are trying to say doesn't really befit Cypriot exchanges. Most Cypriot men would never speak like that. Think of something less formal and more basic.


(P.S. Ignore STUD - he's a wannabee Cypriot colonialist.)

Maybe a few lines of CY Tsatista would go down well...

Drink a few sips of Zivana and let your luck work for you.

so ok ignore me.. tell her you have three testicles (in fact a known medical condition) and she has nice boobs....both a lot less formal and more basic.

Personally I am trying to ignore GIG - I have worked out she is no worth arguing with because like her soul-mate Kimon07 whatever is in her head (and I suspect it is not brains), leaves no room to allow for the possibility their monocentric and possibly propagandised point of view about Greece and Greek History may be incorrect and that others are allowed to hold alternative points of view.

"You bring beauty and and sunshine to my day." or something very similar.

Ok say this to her… (underlined letters are the emphasis in pronunciation)

“Fernis mou omorfkia tzie don ilio kathe mera”

[swimeveryday]

“Fernis mou omorfkia tzie don ilio kathe mera” means what exactly?

Island Girl: If another line would be appropriate, what would you suggest? What would you appreciate if it were you?

It means... "You bring beauty and the sun to me every day"

NB: Forget about Island Girl if what you want is Cypriot.
