"The nice popcorn"

Translation: το καλό ποπ κορν

[TobyBartels]

Why did ‘popcorn’ become two words in Greek? Neither of these has a meaning by itself, do they?

[troll1995]

It became two words to actually represent the two "accents" popcorn has. If accents were written in English, it would be something like pópcórn, so in Greek you have to write ποπ κορν, so that both pop and corn are accented. ;)

What's the difference between "νόστιμο" and "ωραίο"? When should either be used?

[Sophia_dr123]

"νόστιμο" means "tasty"
"ωραίο" means "nice" or "beautiful"
So you use "νόστιμο" for something eatable and "ωραίο" for something or someone that you like. You can use it for a thing (ωραίο παντελόνι = nice trousers), characteristics (ωραία ματιά = nice/beautiful eyes), the weather (ωραία μέρα = beautiful day) etc..

[Sophia_dr123]

Oh! And you can also use "ωραίο" for food if you like.

[Hilary666874]

Why is ωραίο wrong? Το καλό ποπ κορν means “good popcorn” doesn’t it?

[Sophia_dr123]

Yes it does. But "ωραίο" means "nice"/"beautiful", not "good"
