In today's episode we will talk about the Imperative mood in Greek. Emily and Danai will first engage in a dialogue with suggestions of what to do in Thessaloniki and then explain the use of the Imperative mood.
D: Emily, I want to visit Thessaloniki! What do you suggest I do there?
E: Oh, perfect! You’ll have an amazing time! First of all, take a walk along the beach to see the White Tower up close and climb all the way to the top. The view is incredible!
D:I already love this idea! Where else should I go?
E: Go to the Upper Town and the Castles. There, you’ll see the Heptapyrgion, and of course, the view of the entire city from above. Also, visit the Hagia Sophia, the Rotunda, and the Church of Saint Demetrius—they’re among the most historic churches in the city.
D:I probably won’t be able to do all of this in one day, right?
Ε:Most likely not. It’s better to plan on needing two to three days to see all of that, plus maybe visit a museum, like the Archaeological or Byzantine Museum, which are both in the city center.
D: Alright then. What about food? What should I try?
E: Well, definitely take a walk around Ladadika for lunch, and also go there in the evening for drinks. Of course, after that, for dessert, you should try "trigona Panorama," and for breakfast, at least once, have bougatsa with cream.
D: Wow! Everything sounds delicious! There’s no way I’m not trying "trigona"! Everyone’s telling me about them!
Ε: They’re definitely amazing! But there are also lots of other syrupy sweets to try.
D: Got it… I’m going for gastronomic tourism!
Ε: Yes! And don’t forget to walk around Aristotelous Square and have a freddo.
D: Of course, I can’t wait for a proper freddo espresso!
Ε: You have to!
D: It looks like I’ll need to write all this down so I don’t forget!
Ε: Good idea! Make a list for each day so you can manage to see and do everything!
D: I think I’ll really like Thessaloniki because there’s so much to see and do!
Ε: Exactly! You’ll never get bored!
