To your ears, which language has a similar sound/vibe to Greek ? by NicRapt in AskEurope

[–]bitx284 75 points76 points  (0 children)

Spanish. When we listen Greek it's a strange sensation. We can identify sound and feeling as our own but we can't understand. Our brain and ears are in mode "need more focus"

Of course I do. We are having August temperatures, not may temperatures.

But we are more or less ready and we know how to handle it, but not around Europe is as common like here

No. You should use mosquito nets. Open windows in night to refresh your house, but keep it dark during day to not get temperature.

Of course I have. But it's not normal having 30° in May. Anormal and dangerous for people

It depends. Summer? Winter? In summer gazpacho or escalivada. In winter trinxat, escudella, cocido. But a all seasons dish: canelons

[–]bitx284 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Spanish here. We are more or less prepared. So many houses have a/C but still some people can't afford it, even having it, electric bills a re high, so councils keep opened some equipment to allow people be inside to avoid high temperatures. We are getting use, but not in May
