Manolis,
Rest assured that we "dear gentlemen" even who share English often cause
quite a bit of confusion among ourselves with grammatical terminology,
especially if the terminology comes from differing linguistic models. I
have often wished I were fluent enough in Greek to discuss Greek in Greek.
I believe the *best* way to discuss a language is in its own terms. But
meanwhile, I want to echo Moon's appreciation for the insights you provide
as a mother-tongue speaker of Greek.
And thank you for clarifying "analytical."
