You might be wondering what these goats with kerata are doing up on the roof. George (the owner of the house) put them there. This way, he doesn't have to worry about their knocking over the furniture or ramming the car.
Here are some true stories about kerata (the Greek word for "horns"):
In last year's school Christmas pageant, my son had to dress up as a reindeer.
"I'd like some kerata, please," I asked the shop assistant at the toy shop.
A taxi-driver colleague of my husband's was approached in his taxi by a man who got into his car and showed him a gun. The driver asked "Do I know you?" The man answered: "I'm the kerata." He then asked the driver to stop screwing his wife, advice which the driver heeded.
Instead of saying 'fuck you', you could say 'ta kerata sou' as a term of abuse to someone instead. They'll understand why you mentioned reindeer horns.
Hm hm, this is a funny story...
ReplyDeleteZoe, it's not funny when you hold the gun and you try to get in the taxi with all these "kerata" coming out of your head impeding your access to the vehicle.
ReplyDeleteMed. Kiwi, I like the way George is thinking :-) and of course the way you present the "kerata" issue :-D :-D :-D
The owner of the house was clever enough to put the goats with the horns on the roof. How clever he is, o 'keratas'!
