  • Nope, and not a clue how that is even pronounced!
  • Euripides trousers, you mend-a dese trousers. 



  • Bloke said doughnuts.
    Much has been made of this on social media but I’ll happily put my hands up and say I’ve never heard of  an Ancient Greek  poet called Homer 
    You’ve never heard of The Iliad mate?
    The Odyssey is possible more famous, what with the cyclops, and all those other trials Odysseus had to get through.

    You surprise me AFKA, I do not know your age but guessing under 40, not to have heard of either

    That's a fail.  You've got to do it as:

    Euripides trousers, Eumenides trousers

    or possibly

    You rip a dese, you men'a dese

    but you can't mix the two.

    Wrote the Odyssey and the Iliad. The two biggest classics of literature from Ancient Greece.

    Anything you’ve seen involving Greek mythology, gods and adventures like Clash of the Titans, Troy, Jason and the Argonauts or even Percy Jackson are all heavily influenced by these epic poems.
    Iliad is basically a story about the Trojan wars. Odyssey is about a man trying to find his way home (from that war) getting into scrapes and meeting all sorts of monsters, gods and rum characters on his way.

    Homer wasn’t the only epic poet of Ancient Greece, and he didn’t write all of the best stories, but he’s the biggest reason we still know about Greek mythology.

    But surely the donut wasn't invented back in ancient Greek times.

    Yes, it must be that :-)

    Seriously, never heard of Odyssey or IIiad (how is that pronounced). Just googled Homer. Can quite honestly say ‘it’s all Greek to me’

    It's even older than that, but it's not spelt out, is it?  All I'm saying is, if you write it, you have to keep the same style in both names.
