Have you ever heard of a Greek phrase 'Manare mu'.

If you have, what does it mean?

Thanks.

Most probably the Greek phrase is "Μανάρι μου".

Μανάρι translates to young sheep or goat.

"μου" means "my".

However the phrase "Μανάρι μου!" is used, metaphorically speaking, when someone expresses his admiration to a beautiful woman.

Thank you very much. That was the phrase I was thinking about. So, it is a usual phrase, nothing extraordinary?
It is a slang phrase and you may offend a woman if you do not know her well.  Depends what you mean by "extraordinary".
Thanks for the clarification :) By extraordinary I meant that it is not common to hear it on a street.
