Expression of prohibition

In Greek, we express prohibition with the negative particle μη and the equivalent να- form.

Η Αγκάθα θα ήθελε από το Tεό να μη φωνάζει και να μη μιλά έτσι. Του λέει: Μη φωνάζεις! Μη μιλάς έτσι!

Optionally, we can use the structure with να (subjunctive) with imperative meaning.

Να μη φωνάζεις! Να μη μιλάς έτσι!
