"The man pays."

Translation: Ο άντρας πληρώνει.

What are the connotations of συζυγος, please?

[fotiosgaridis]

σύζυγος = husband

άντρας/άνδρας = man

In Greek you can say Ο άντρας μου while referring to your husband but you cannot say Ο σύζυγός μου and refer to anyone else who is not married to you.

• Ο σύζυγός μου = my husband

• Ο άντρας μου = my husband OR my man (expression that can be used also between two men)

Please let me know if the above is not clear enough.

[slevakis]

That is useful to know but the statement is 'the man' and duolingo accepts σύζυγό ?

[fotiosgaridis]

Yes, we accept both translations because both are valid. The best translation is:

• The man pays = Ο άντρας πληρώνει.

Πληρώνει ο άντρας wasn't accepted :(
