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! 

Τρία (Tria) in Greek means 'Three'. Λόγος(Logos) means speech, rational thinking and...story. In ancient Greece, during theatre competitions, the playwrights could present a comedy. a tragedy, a satyrical drama or a tragedy split in three parts (there's is actually a number of combinations they could present from all the above but that's for another episode). The only complete three-part tragedy saved to this day is The Oresteia and I highly recommend you read it or watch it at some point. Now, those Tragedies were called a ΤΡΙΛΟΓΙΑ/TRILOGY
