"Δοκιμάζουμε το τυρί."

Translation: We're tasting the cheese.

Is this verb used as 'to taste' because that would be the appropriate translation of this sentence, or can it be used as literally 'trying'? For example 'I am trying to open the door'?

It is translated as "try". "to taste" in greek is γεύομαι, but it is not so commonly used in sentences like "taste the cheese". Instead "try the cheese" is used.

Okay. Thank you, you're doing an amazing job! :)

Could προσπαθώ be used with the same meaning as to try a certain food or clothing?

So, why is 'try' not accepted?

why is 'try' not accepted?

You always have to translate the entire sentence.

You cannot translate Δοκιμάζουμε το τυρί as just "try".
