Title	Where have you been for so long?
Translation English Translated by irini	Target language: English Where have you been for so long? How are you mate? Are you discharged? Are you being discharged soon? I believe that you are about to around now. That's done! Hey, Î™ wish you "good civilian" from now on, with a good job and a good girl! I suppose that there's a chick involved and that's why you disappeared... And if there's none yet, you will get out of the camp "hungry" for girls! And I say "for girls" (many) because as Fanis says "From 3 and upward! Only one causes trouble". Ha-Ha
Remarks about the translation	Notes: The first word, "es", doesn't mean a thing. Judging from the context it is with almost 100% certainty Î Î¿Ï… (poy) which means "where" or something similar. The expression it is part of is more or less fixed. The whole text is rather colloquial and makes abundant use of slang. I have done my best to keep as close to the original as possible but I thought it best to change some of the slang expressions. Contact me if you wish for a verbatim translation (no need to post yet another request since it would be my fault I haven't provided one) All Greek men have to spend some time in the army. After they serve the alloted period of time they are discharged from the army; this is when their "time is up" (General expression which means that it's the right time for something to happen). In the army they stay in well, camps obviously :) When someone is discharged it is customary to wish to him "Good civilian", with "civilian" being of course opposed to being part of the army. "from 3 and upwards" means you have to have at least 3 girls. I have no idea who this Fanis is.
