SARAVALO (Σαράβαλο) and Kalimera, Ellada- Rap Songs


A good word, "Saravalo" (Σαράβαλο), which means, when used to refer to a person (also a house, or a piece of furniture), "a worn-out, dilapidated old thing". Often used in a humorous, self-deprecating way. A bit ramshackle, a ruin or an old wreck. "Eimai saravalo!" More expressive than saying "I feel like an old wreck!"


The word occurs, in a quite different context, as the title of a Giannis Aggelakas Greek rap song
