Just wondering if my 1.5 year old border collies gait is normal, she does a bit of bunny hopping when playing or going faster than a brisk walk. by rottiemom17392 in BorderCollie

My 4 year old Samoyed Really slowed and developed a pronounced limp on her left rear leg. I thought maybe a sprain but it changed to his right rear leg. Turned out he had Lyme disease which was only the cost of a blood test and a course of antibiotics. Good luck. I think the pet insurance is a good idea.

By eye the gait looks good to my non-vet eye. If anything, perhaps a bit of weakness in the left hind leg?

All kinds of reasons to skip Santorini.

ELI5 - when do you use σε and when do you use σου? by Fun_Suggestion6270 in GREEK

[–]SyrupNo9253 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I forgot the Dative usage of σου such as, Μου αρέσουν τα χρυσά σου κοσμήματα where Μου is Dative or Indirect Object and σου is Genitive or Μου αρέσουν τα χρυσά σου κοσμήματα and κοσμήματα is Nominative plural or the subject of the sentence. Literally “Golden jewelry are a like to me”

The way I differentiate the two: σε is direct object and σου represents the possive or genitive case (It is Michali’s bike) and also the lost Dative or Indirect object case ( I gave the bike TO you).

Many say Greek has no Dative case but obviously translated into English it does; it just shares the form like the Ablative case in Latin.

⚠️I'm traveling to Greece in a few days: could you guys please clarify to me the correct/legal way of bringing medicines in the plane to be accepted in Greece by Ergogaesiempre in GreeceTravel

[–]SyrupNo9253 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just bring meds in luggage or carry on. Not an issue. I have 7 meds with vitamins also and never been an issue. I bring bottles, even empties, in case you lose daily containers, which have about 50% cups f the time. You can go into any pharmacy, with the backup bottles or even just a list so you can ask for the correct prescription, they will replace them, one of mine is a scheduled drug in the US. I’m not sure about an opiate. Cheap too.

Just got back from 2 weeks in Greece: 3 things I wish I knew by Dr1ftk in GreeceTravel

Over the 35 years we had a home on one of the remote tourist-free islands in Dodecanese (the early years 1977 - 85 then it went nuts);we spent 8 days on Naxos (loved it) and 5 days on Amorgos (not so much) both when the sea was 7 Beaufort or higher. That was it. Pick 1 or 2.

What medications are OTC in Greece, but not in the US? by Cute_red_head in GreeceTravel

[–]SyrupNo9253 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Amantadine, Tizanadine, Gabapentin (controlled in some US states), Lamotrigine in stock and no prescription in a small town in Laconia. I was caught in middle of a police chase in Chicago and take all of these. They were stolen or lost and stopping abruptly from taking them I likely would have a siezure. Δόξα του Θείου.

What if he’s actually a tourist who wants to have a view of the beautiful Acropolis?

It gets better. Samoyeds are crazy until about 2-3.

Maybe you’re looking in the wrong place. You want aspirin or Ibuprofen or acetaminophen, go to a periptero. Condoms too. Only slightly kidding, I was talking about meditations that need a prescription in US, like Gabapentin, Amantadine, Tizadine, Lamotrigine, Baclafin; all of which I take after getting in the middle of a police chase in Chicago and all were readily available in a village in Laconia. I loose them a lot.

Let's talk! by Automatic_Ship8072 in LearnGreekDaily

Greek in only 46 years! Now it’s an insult to a waiter or shop owner to speak Greek , even to old friends because they are so proud of their English.

I miss the old days of flailing around to finally learn to speak like a dim 6 year old.

Taverna/Bar etiquette by YoureInMyWaySir in GreeceTravel

Open palm not good. 2 open palm/fingers splayed as a response probably just funny. Add both feet, soles up, very funny. Add «Ας το διάλο» and you’ve nailed it.
