Can anyone guess what the word “muni” means in Greek?
Here’s a clue…It might be considered inappropriate to walk around Athens wearing a t-shirt with the words “do the muni” on it.
the silent one
Is it some type of animal or person?
“do the barber”
well-
if you are doing the greek translation of muni
you should probly specify whether it would be a greek equivelent of do the or just do the
Monopodeloto?
well i don’t know what it means but it’s one of those words altavista’s babelfish ‘misses out’ of their dictionary
just found out what it means
what does it mean guys i cant find it anywhere…pm me if its that inapropriate
a google.gr search for “define: muni” says that it is “the silent one” (as in a sage, monk, hermit, or someone else who has taken a vow of silence.)
no you fools. It means vagina. GOSH.
I just looked in my lexicon, which has ancient greek and Muni is not there.
munae (mu-upsilon-nu-eta) means an excuse or pretense
curiously, the next word is
mucha (mu-upsilon-chi-alpha) meaning Booger. eeewwww
Mayby muni means vagina in modern greek. I don’t have a reference for that.
It’s not pronounced Muni… more of like a mOOny… funny fact: We had an english teacher called Miss Moonia… my greek friend thought that was hilarious.
well done Mr Owen, wise in the ways of Greek vaginas and mountain unicycling are you.
The big question though is what do the words “do” and “the” mean in Greek, if you are going to put them together in a phrase?
Your Greek friend would get a kick out of visiting San Francisco. The public transit system goes by the name MUNI. So instead of bus stops you have MUNI stops, there are street signs just for the MUNI traffic, the hilarity would be continual.
hahahaha MooNY traffic… hahaha
It all makes sence!
I was wearign that shirt at school and a teacher comes up and says “what Muni” i said “mountian unicycling” hes like “are you sure” i said ya and he left. A few weeks later he asked if i knew what it ment and i was like what? and he said something like “I something bad in a nother language” it was crazy! but now it makes sence.
The greek muni is spelled different… whoever came up with the spelling for the term forgot to use the first two letters from mountain when spelling it.
There are a lot of languages that have things that look weird in another language. When I was in Denmark, on the elevators there is a button labeled “i fart” and in the train station they have a bulletin board labeled “fart plan”.
This cracked me up in Sweden… the parking garages have two doors: “infart” and “utfart”. The speed bump signs say “farthinder”. But my favorite signs were on the escalators: Ab (up) and Ned (down)… one of my college professors was named Ned, and I found it hilarious that he was named after a Swedish escalator!
the swedish word for up is actually upp and not ab
