Adropos

Adropos may be used to characterize a lot of different behaviors where a man (never a woman!) acts with unparalleled manner. It is the ultimate characterization that a man from Cyprus may ever receive. It is very difficult for someone to reach such a state and you may never be able to come across an Adropos. Most Adropoi (plural of Adropos) may be found in the Kingdom of Aradippou (a city-state-kingdom) in Cyprus. (for the ignorants; Adropos is ALWAYS written with two “omikron” and never with an “omega”)

En mialos Adropos olan! (slung Cyprus dialect)
