can i properly call my wife - o sizigos mou. does the word mean spouse? thanks in advance peter |
| Re: sizigos |
Well not " O sizigos"!  "I sizigos" is perfectly fine though and that's how you should call her.it may help you understand better if you know where the word comes from and what it means exactly: It's from the preposition sin (συν) = together, plus and the word (ζυγός) zigos = which in this case means "bound together" (i.e. like two cattle under a zigos -also yoke- hehe). So O/I sizigos is the person you are bound together with. I don't know where "spouse" comes from but it is indeed the best translation of sizigos (and vice versa) |
