I've just done enough shopping to keep me out of the supermarkets until next Tuesday!

Much simpler to just say Paps!!I do believe that besides the spelling most of us pronounce it wrong as I believe the stress should be on iou instead of the ton if you get my meaning!!

I don't know. I've heard Cypriots direct me past PAPanTOEnios in the past. Caps indicate emphasis.

My Modern Greek teacher advised me that it would be safe to assume that the stress should be on the third vowel of the longer words. PapantOniou.
