How do say strength in greek and how you pronounce it?

The most common and straightforward way to say "strength" in Greek is δύναμη (dýnami).

The pronunciation is approximately: DEE-nah-mee

* DEE: A long "ee" sound, as in "see."

* nah: Like "na" in "banana," but slightly shorter.

* mee: Like "me," but with a slight emphasis on the "mee" syllable.

There are other words that can convey the idea of strength depending on the context, such as:

* ισχύς (ischýs): This refers more to power or force. Pronounced roughly as ee-SHOO-s (the "SH" is like the "sh" in "ship").

* δύναμις (dýnamis): This is a related word to δύναμη, meaning strength or power, and often used in more formal or literary contexts. Pronunciation is similar to δύναμη (DEE-nah-mis).

But for most everyday situations, δύναμη (dýnami) is the best and easiest choice.
