For the latest chapter of the Pieces, I need a bit of translation, does anyone here know Greek?

I've read and heard news about students who died due to hazing. Initiations to these so-called brotherhoods that involve abuse, degradation, and humiliation are revolting and inhumane.
When one becomes a member of a fraternity or sorority, they are likely to be a contributor of toxic behaviour and/or a victim of peer pressure. Once they give in to it, they would end up becoming douchebags, racists, sexists, bigots, homophobes, xenophobes, and/or anti-Semites.
Greek mythology tells of a Trojan princess named Cassandra who was famous for making prophecies that no one believed. One version of the story goes that Cassandra served as a priestess of the god Apollo, who had given her the gift of prophecy as a sign of his, ahem, “favor.” Cassandra rejected Apollo’s advances, and unable to take back the gift, he cursed her so that no one would believe her prophecies.
I have just submitted a short fun end-of-year story: Star Swirl the Bearded and The Sirens of Capri. This is adapted from something I did for a writeoff, and is my take on Star Swirl and the Dazzlings.

Yeah, I'm still working on a clever title. I have a clever intro, though.
At one time, Mount Olympus was the home of the Greek gods. Then they let the first pony in.
There goes the neighborhood

Okay, so while I'm thinking more I could do for this Shattered series for you all, I actually had somewhat of an idea. We know the Sirens in this story are heavily influenced from Greek mythology (and just heavily influenced from Greek mythology in general) but what if we could bring in perhaps another person from Greek mythology? Why not... Medusa?
Privet, Tovarisches.
I was sitting on my hands thinking today: 'Luna' is just 'Moon' in Russian due to the extensive Greek influence on the language carried over via Eastern Orthodoxy, right? So Princess Luna is just...Princess Moon in Russian? What the heck is Princess Celestia? Are there any other weird transliterations into the Russian version of the show?
This is Grammer a Week, the periodic blog program-thing where I soapbox about a grammar subject I find interesting. You might, too! This week's installment definitely errs more on the side of "interesting" than "useful" because I'm talking about the word "pegasus" today. What do you think the plural form of the word "pegasus" is? "Pegasuses"? "Pegasi"? That question is actually much harder to answer than you may think.
I even remembered to tag it properly this time!
Well, this was an interesting experience. I have no idea where the sheer volume of downvotes came from, but I am now part of the auspicious group of authors who have had stories with more dislikes than likes at some point, which tickles me pink. Thanks to everyone who saw through the ratings and decided to join me on this ride anyways, I hope you enjoyed it.
As you might have noticed, I just released a new story, A Most August Peace. This story was an eleventh-hour entry into Ebon Quill's Dazzlings Contest, and was written in a 30-hour frenzy (with breaks to sleep and eat and other stuff, but still pretty frenzied nonetheless).
Bueno dias, my friends.
This is your friendly film, TV show, and episode reporter here with another review.
And today, for my 113th film analysis and 4th installment of my "February Festivity", I'm gonna give you guys my take of "My Big Fat Greek Wedding".
Here's the summary of it:
I'm not gonna bog this blog post down with theories on why. I'll just put down the basic structure of how I think the after life works and how it would be presented in any future stories i could potentially write. Some credit for these ideas goes to John Hood...who doesn't come here anymore. :sad face:
So I've been debating something for an upcoming chapter. It's not exactly 'soon' nor is it a very impactful thing to the story itself, but its been niggling at me and I'd like all of your thoughts on the matter.
Sorry for posting this so late. I have been busy non stop since this month started. Either way, I hope you are all having fun this month. I do have the usual planned out. The commission I ordered last month is almost done. I'm fully caught up on Journey To Hearth's Warming and I will be finishing the next chapter of Hoodwinked Pony Edition tomorrow. Plenty of fun coming up this month with flashbacks, ancient weapons returning and Derpy trying her best to articulate an answer for crimes. So much
