How do you pronounce are amazing in greek?

There isn't a single perfect translation of "are amazing" into Greek that captures the informal, colloquial feel of the English phrase. The best translation depends on the context and what aspect of "amazing" you want to emphasize.

Here are a few options, with pronunciation guides using a rough approximation of English sounds:

* Είστε καταπληκτικοί (Eiste katalpliktikoí): This is a formal but common translation. "Eiste" is pronounced roughly like "EE-steh" (the "steh" is a softer sound than "stay"). "Katalpliktikoí" is roughly "kah-tah-pleek-tee-kee" (the "i" at the end is a short "ee"). This translates to "You are amazing" (plural, formal).

* Είστε φανταστικοί (Eiste fantastikoi): This is a more informal option, meaning "You are fantastic." Pronunciation is similar to the above, with "fantastikoi" pronounced roughly as "fan-tah-stee-kee".

* Είσαστε υπέροχοι (Eisaste yperochí): This is a more literary and slightly less common option, meaning "You are wonderful" or "You are superb." "Eisaste" sounds like "ee-sah-steh". "Yperochí" is roughly "ee-peh-roh-hee".

The best option depends on the context. If you're talking to friends, the informal options are better. If speaking to elders or in a more formal setting, the first one is more appropriate.

Remember that Greek pronunciation involves many subtleties not easily captured in a written transliteration. Listening to a native speaker is the best way to learn the correct pronunciation. You can find audio pronunciations online using a Greek-English dictionary or a pronunciation website.
