How do you say Asian in greek?

There isn't a single perfect translation for "Asian" in Greek, as the term encompasses a vast and diverse continent. The best choice depends on the context:

* Ασιατικός (Asiatikós): This is the most common and generally accepted translation, derived from "Asia." It's suitable for referring to things geographically from Asia.

* Ασιάτης (Asiátis): This is the adjectival form of Ασιατικός, meaning "Asian person". It's appropriate when referring to a person of Asian origin.

However, it's important to note that using these terms can be overly broad and potentially insensitive. It's always better to be more specific if possible and refer to the particular ethnicity or nationality (e.g., Κινέζος - Kinézos for Chinese, Ιάπωνας - Iápōnas for Japanese, Ινδός - Indós for Indian, etc.).
