I like it when I find namedrops without even searching. My keyboard isn't magical or anything, I just did some fiddling with the languages on windows so that it switches between roman and greek characters when I hit Ctrl-Shift. I can explain it to you if you're on windows. Anything else, I wouldn't have a clue.

In Greek, as the wonderful Grunge Dust says:

σε παρακαλώ (informally)
σας παρακαλώ (formally, or to more than one person)

Confusingly, I'm under the impression that parakalo/παρακαλώ is also used as a way to say "you're welcome" after having been thanked for something? Very awkward. It makes my head spin.

parakalo is you're welcome too. It is weird that it's both please and thank you. The whole key is that "please" is when the pronoun is attatched because you're asking someone specifically and "parakalo" without the pronoun is thank you. At least that's how I speak it. I've never thought of it, but now I can see that being sooo confusing.

I made a whoopsy in my typing, I think. σασ should be σας, no? It's not looking good for me.

Yeahh it is but I thought maybe the keyboard didn't have that letter. And about writing Greek with your keyboard, on this computer I don't have Windows Only Microsoft Works.
And it's looking fineee for you

Romanian is "va rog" when you address to an older/higher status person or to a group of people
te rog = informally
