Hello and welcome to Season 6 of Your Greek Word On A Sunday. A little bit of news before we begin our word journey this season. We have, now , a new home; it's called Buzzsprout and you can find our link on our Twitter page @yourgreeksunday, give us a follow while you're there for updates on our episodes, top listening countries and audience of the week. . Moving house means more podcast platforms we can be found on and a new email where you can send your questions, comments or even word ideas if you've got them, email us at [email protected]. And don't forget to download the episodes you listen to, being bite size means , our numbers will grow only if you download not just play an episode! I think that's all the housekeeping for now. Let's begin!

Hello and welcome to Your Greek Word On A Sunday, a weekly, bite-size podcast for anyone curious on language, etymology and connections. I am your host, Emmanuela Lia and wherever you are in the world, if you want to entertain your brain for a few minutes, this is the podcast for you. Let's Go! 

As we enter Season 6, we might as well record the word ancient Greeks used for, marking a point in time that stands still, a transfer period, a beginning of a new era or the marking of one. In Latin it just meant 'era' and in modern Greek 'season' (which is appropriate as Autumn is upon us) . So. happy new beginnings everyone! ΕΠΟΧΗ/EPOCH
