Φοβού τους Δαναούς και δώρα φέροντας
Fear the Greeks even bearing gifts
🇬🇷 греческий
Athens, GR
Произношение: fo-VOU tous Da-na-OUS kai DO-ra FE-ron-tas
From Virgil's Aeneid ('Timeo Danaos et dona ferentes'), but Greeks claim it with ironic pride. The Trojan Horse stratagem is a foundational Greek cultural reference. Greeks use this proverb self-referentially, sometimes with humorous self-awareness about their own reputation for cleverness.
