"Η ζώνη μου."

Translation: My belt.

[Lng52-._]

Is it pronounced like: "zhoni" or "zoni"?

[mizinamo]

Yes :)

Because Greek has no "sh" or "zh" sounds, the "s" and "z" sounds can move a bit in that direction without causing a possible confusion between words. So Greek "s, z" sometimes sounds a bit like "sh, zh". (Though I think the sound never moves all the way to a typical English "sh, zh" sound, just somewhere in between.)

For a learner, I'd recommend using English "s, z" rather than try to imitate the in-between sounds that you might hear from Greeks.

[Dimitra956826]

It's almost the same thing, as soon as the h is silent. ^.^

[mizinamo]

I think with "zh" is meant the sound of "j" in French "journal", or English "s" in "measure".

[Joridiy]

It sounds rather to the Polish «rz» and «sz»

[DemiVandeH]

I said my belt?

[Dan_Silhavy]

Why is there capital "Z"?

[D_..]

It's not the capital form, ζ is how the small Ζ is written in Greek.

When hovering the word it gives the alternative "seat belt" while the meaning of "belt" in this sentence is for pants. So how do you say seat belt in greek ?

[troll1995]

It's ζώνη (ασφαλείας). Ασφαλείας is omitted in everyday speech.
