    καλλιέργεια = (med.) culture

    sophisticated

    One of the connotations of sophisticated (for me) is "worldly." Would "ΚΟΣΜΙΚΟΣ" be an appropriate, then? I wonder what you would think?

    Two for one day: "We're on the same team." How to say that in Greek colloquially so it sounds naturally. I would really appreciate it. Thank you.
