στων

Ultimate origin is from Ancient Greek εἰς (eis, “to, in”) +‎ τῶν (tôn, “of the”)

• IPA^(key): /ˈston/
• Homophone: στον (ston)

στων • (ston)

1. (rare, poetic) Contraction of σε των (se ton, “to (of) the”).

   Στων αγγέλων τα μπουζούκια

   Ston angélon ta bouzoúkia

   At the angels' bouzoukis

   Θα πάω στων νεαρών τα μέρη.

   Tha páo ston nearón ta méri.

   I'll go to the young people's places.

This contraction is somewhat rare and is only ever used poetically (and hence, lyrically, as in the above song title) or in literature. Most times, the sentence order is merely changed around to make it sound less unusual:

Στα μπουζούκια των αγγέλων

Sta bouzoúkia ton angélon

At the bouzoukis of the angels

Θα πάω στα μέρη των νεαρών.

Tha páo sta méri ton nearón.

I'll go to the places of the young people.
