"Ματάκια μου (ΜΑΤΑΚΙΑ ΜΟΥ) means, literally, "my little eyes". Little here is "cutsy" diminutive like "sweety" I guess.
MATAKIA MOY is a term of endearment like "my sweet", "my honey" etc, although it can also be used between people who do not have an affair (friends, relatives -mother to child i.e.-).
I guess we are looking for an equivalent here though I can't say for sure, but then again you can use any part of this post if you like as notes.
If giving you examples of usage would help just let me know"
Before I change or delete this thread, how about we find a solution for the translation? I mean we can put this "my little eyes" down as a verbatim translation either in the notes or as a regular translation and explain in the notes. | | | 10 November 2007 02:57 | | | Thanks, Irini! Done! |
