translating the odyssey has got me thinking about the ocean so here are some pretty greek words about the sea

ἁλίβρομος- murmuring like the sea

ἁλίτροφος- nurtured by the sea

ἁλιανθής- sea-blooming

ἀνεμοζάλη- strong surging sea

διαθαλασσεύω- to be parted by the sea

ἐκθαλαττόομαι- to become all sea

γαλήνη- in general, calmness, but also refers to the stillness of the sea in particular 

παραθαλάσσιος- beside the sea

ὕφαλος- under the sea

these were all very nice so i decided to look for more and

suffice it to say i am no longer looking for ancient greek words about the sea
