Talk:γιος

This word is wrong. The title of the page is incorrect. The word is υἱός not γιος. I don't know how this mistake was made, but anyone who knows greek can recognize it immediately. I don't know how to change the article title to correct this, so i'm going to point it out in the text.Leostaley (talk) 02:39, 26 June 2013 (UTC)
 * True for Ancient Greek, but this is Modern Greek (we refer to Modern Greek as simply "Greek", and everything before the fall of Constantinople as "Ancient Greek"). Although I don't know much Modern Greek, I find it significant that this entry has been edited by at least one native speaker, and at least a couple of advanced second-language speakers- without any objections being raised to the spelling.

 * Chuck is right (as far as it goes) - but his answer had made me think a bit harder about this. υἱός is also a Katharevousa form of the word as well as an Ancient Greek form. There are not many Katharevousa words on Wiktionary yet see: Category:Katharevousa and most of these are monotonic (and should these have polytonic forms created?), although the polytonic Ἕλλην is there - and this is probably the format which should be used for υἱός. &mdash; Saltmarshαπάντηση 10:32, 28 June 2013 (UTC)
