How to Say “Good Travels” in Greek

Did you know?

• The root of ταξίδι describes the 'ordering' of people, which is why it relates to the English word 'taxonomy' and 'taxicab', both of which involve arranging or organizing things.
• In Greek, the concept of a 'journey' is closely tied to the word δρόμος, meaning 'road'. A person might be told καλό δρόμο instead of καλό ταξίδι if they are driving a short distance.
• The word ταξίδι originally comes from τάξις, which meant 'arrangement' or 'ordering'. In Ancient Greek, it referred to the organized movement of an army on a campaign rather than a leisure trip.
