This has probably been asked before but I wanted to add another layer/an alternative.
So, I ask, where did your username/pseudonym/nickname originate from? What’s the meaning behind it?
Or alternatively, which is the most creative/interesting nickname origin you have come across?
Kona + Loki + accidentally changing an O to an A = Kolanaki
And then it turns out, it’s also the name of a place in Greece.
Not exactly, it’s actually Kolonaki - but close enough!
-a greek
Yeah that’s how it was supposed to be spelled, but I messed up when I actually made my account after combining my dog’s names. lol
Oddly enough, I thought it sounded vaguely Hawaiian.
Honestly, our language is weird. It can sound like any language depending on what you’re saying and the words you’re using
To be fair, Greek influences a lot of other languages. I had the thought the other day that if one were to learn Latin and Greek, they could probably do just fine in understanding a majority of other languages in use today since most of them derive so many of their words from those two languages.
Many Greek people do, considering if you want to study anything from law to psychology to journalism, you need to learn latin and ancient Greek (though this one is mandatory in highschool) to pass the university entrance exam
