\n[et_pb_column type=”4_4″][et_pb_text admin_label=”Text”]The Mini Lexicon for Basic Communication<\/strong>, available in 8 different languages, is a tool used to facilitate day-to-day communication between refugees and migrants with Greek or English-speaking persons. This tool enables non-Greek\/non-English speakers to communicate their general needs, as well as information on issues related to housing, food, health, and protection.<\/p>\n

Special chapters are also included for women and unaccompanied children. In order to enable two-way speaking interaction, all entries are phonetically transcribed in Arabic, Farsi, Sorani, Kurmanji, Urdu, French, Turkish and Ukrainian along with their Greek and English translations.<\/p>\n

The eight mini-lexicons are printed and distributed to beneficiaries for free. Corresponding lexicons are made available to site managers, service providers and other actors in open accommodation sites around the country.<\/p>\n

Electronic versions of the Mini Lexicon are also available online and can be downloaded and printed according to one\u2019s needs. Below, you can download the Mini Lexicon as a PDF document.<\/p>\n
