  • another greek translation question

    Hello again - thanks to all for your help last time. I'm looking to translate the following coversation between a mother and son into greek.

    Mother: How are you doing?

    Son: I'm fine.

    Mother: Really?


    again, gracias.

    Here are some options:

    Pos iste? (=> How are you?)
    Imai leptos. (=> I'm fine.)
    Pragmatika? (=> Really? ... tho I've never heard anyone use this)
    Ne. (=> Yes.)

    Or it might go like this -

    Ine olos kala? (=> Is everything ok?)
    Ne. (=> Yes.)
    Alythea? (=> Truth?)
    Ne. (=> Yes.)
    Ella tora! (=> "Come on now!" ... in a "I don't believe you" tone)


    Hope it helps.

          I will thanks! It's just starting to shoot now, so it'll be some time toward the end of the year. We'll also see just how much makes the final cut. The network has this thing about wanting people to speak English...

              Not if what he needs is the definitive Greek dialogue that will be shot. I've seen some terrible English -> Spanish translations where the words were translated correctly but not the spirit of the dialogue. Makes for very weird-sounding, very inaccurate dialogue.
