"Your grandma is so kind!"

I giagia sou einai toso kali!

Η γιαγιά σου είναι τόσο καλή!

"My Grandma speaks four languages."

I giagia mou milaei tesseris glosses.

Η γιαγιά μου μιλάει τέσσερις γλώσσες.

"How old is your grandma?"

Poso xronon einai i giagia sou?

Πόσο χρονών είναι η γιαγιά σου;

"Both of my grandmas and grandpas are passed away."

Kai oi dio giagiades kai pappoudes mou exoun pethanei.

Και οι δυο γιαγιάδες και παππούδες μου έχουν πεθάνει.

"I'm over at my grandmother's place right now."

Eimai sto spiti tis giagias mou tora.

Είμαι στο σπίτι της γιαγιάς μου τώρα.
