This phrase is used to name the specific American fast food restaurant chain.
Did you know?
- Greek speakers typically use the feminine gender for fast food chains like Arby's because the implied word αλυσίδα meaning 'chain' is feminine.
- While Άρβις is the name of the chain, a Greek speaker might refer to the meat it serves as κοκκίνο κρέας, which literally means 'red meat', a term not usually used for fast food in English.
- There is no direct Greek equivalent for the 's in 'Arby's' because the Greek way of showing possession uses the particle του instead of an apostrophe and an 's'.
