epi

So I kind of made an idiot of myself last night during my Greek reading class... this may be a little hard to explain, but I'll try.

There's a preposition in Greek that is used often and with many different meanings. The preposition is transliterated "epi". So we were trying to figure out what it meant in a certain context, and my Greek prof, the famous David Keifer, said, "Everything takes epi at some point."

I laughed because I thought he was making a joke by using a double entendre. He looked at me as if to say, "Please, share." So I told him how I thought he was making a joke by saying, "Everything takes a pee at some point."

Apparently he wasn't trying to say that and didn't think my joke was very funny. oops.
