Malakas Malakas (; ] ) is a Greek slang word, with a variety of different meanings. The meaning varies depending on the tone and context used. It can be an exclamation of pleasure, an expression of dark horror, a cry of anger, a paean of affection, and other different things besides its literal equivalent, which in British English is "wanker". Common alternative meanings include "asshole" or "jerk", and the contrasting "dude", or "mate", depending on the context. It derives from the Greek word "malakos" (μαλακός ), which means "soft" or "spoilt, well-used to luxuries of life". It is one of the most frequent words picked up by tourists (often in its vocative case form, i.e. μαλάκα "malaka" /ma.'la.ka/) and travellers to Greece and is not unusual amongst the younger Greek diaspora, even when the level of Greek is low. A female form of the word exists, "malako" (μαλάκω ), but is a recent coinage, whereas "malakismeni" (μαλακισμένη ) seems to be rather more vintage.
