That's a parody of the "Maximus vs. the Tigers" scene from the Gladiator movie.

So, what's Greek for "saxophonist"?

 

[Kyriakos]

So, what's Greek for "saxophonist"?

Given that musical instrument didn't exist here first or centuries ago, the greek is just using the english term with a greek ending, ie 'saxophonistas' (for male; female is 'saxophonistria' i suppose), although i wouldn't be surprised if there is some more official/high brow term used in orchestras, but i don't know of it

Not sure what the etymology of "sax" is. -phone obviously is from phone/ φωνή (voice).

 

[Arakhor]

Apparently named after its creator, Adolphe Sax.

 

[Kyriakos]

I see. Much like the pythagoreon, for all music notation (sarcasm)

^ I'm failing to see why this is "cool".

 

[Kyriakos]

It is a pretty imposing building, and shows that Syria isn't some wasteland.

And how some west europeans (like Dante) don't know that the Minotaur had human body and the head of a bull, not the other way around
