halepos


Thank you

If you wanted to say Χαλεπὸς ὴ ὸν, it is an adjective whose meaning is “painful”, “hard”.

Excuse me, but I already don´t know how to use the polytonic system of Greek keyboard (the acute accents are really low).

i dont know if its the exact writting, but i tried to write it in greek right now.

ηαλεπος

its the same ?

Well, I don´t find that word in my lexicon but the translation into Latin characters “halepos” (khalepós) is more similar to χαλεπὸς than to ηεαλεπος.

5

Might you type the source (from which you have obtained the word…)?

6

if i could… but i have only this word, and someone wrote it to me. I know its a hard situation between me and this other person (break up), and maybe this is the right translation. Thanks again.

I hope you solve your problem as soon as possible.

Hi there! Thanks for your help.

By the way, “halepos” (difficult) is mostly used to express a bad feeling about him/herself or a regret on something, i mean in cases when people feel bad about an action or wrong decision or something bad they have made to someone else, or may be used as a word to express the feeling of something hard to do ex. “difficult job”?

Thank you

Hi,
I use χαλεπὸς χαλεπὴ χαλεπὸν in order to express, ex. gr., the hardness of a work or a job. It is used to express your second assertion.
