(Intro & piano music)I love it when I get the chance to prove how tricky Greek language can be. Only because it's a challenge to describe. At then end of last month I talked about the same infinitive φαίνειν (phenin) meaning 'to show', to create the word 'Phantom'. Here, it's being used again, but after the preposition Εν (en) which becomes 'em' when combined and it means 'within' , 'from the inside' So, making something visible from the inside. Projecting. In rhetoric 'applying significance', in writing 'underlining'. The word started as a guide on how to do that with your voice, the force and stress applied to the utterance of a word or phrase. In England it arrived at the end of the 16th century from Latin. ΕΜΦΑΣΗ/EMPHASISInstagram @yourgreeksunday ,Blue Sky @yourgreeksunday.bsky.socialemail [email protected]
